Rumors or Truth. Let's find out.

[Jim Davis]

Ladies & Gents;

This forum is almost overflowing with questions and statements about Customs seizures and hold ups in the good ol' USA.

How about checking in.

NOT counting suppliers, or orders amounting in the thousands of dollars, is there *anyone* who has had Customs issues with their international order?

I'm talking about the common everyday vaper, and not a major supplier.

If true - OK. If not? Lets see if we can get some positive answers instead of second hand information, and rumors.

A package held in Customs for a week or so don't count if it was released, and delivered.

How 'bout it?

I just got one in from China, wasnt home so have to go pick it up at the post office, it took a couple of weeks to get here though.

 

[texaslady]

I have had zero problems with my orders from China.

No problems for me either. But I have a suggestion. I have a feeling that this will be one long thread with lots of replies if only the people who HAVEN'T had problems post. It might be more productive for us all if we could just hear from the people that have. Just my thought, and of course it's not my thread ! Jim, what are your thoughts?

My China orders get here in like 5 days! No problems.

I have ordered from four different suppliers in China so far and have had no problems with any. Three shipped EMS and got here in 5-7 days, one shipped regular airmail and took about 10. None were ever listed as touched by customs.

I think they only look for the larger orders. I don't think it would be possible to catch all the small stuff.

Order seized and not received

Don't matter to me either way, to be truthful. I'm just hoping a thread like this may calm the natives. Everyone is getting paranoid, and the newbies, are soiling their Fruit Of The Looms over it.

It's just as well. 1000 good posts will help to squash the rumors too.

Hey!!! How about the 1000th poster gets a free Customs seizure.

groan.... i give up... +1 to your post count and mine.

 

[ChainSmkr]

No problem here. Just received an order from China in 4 days - that's faster than some US suppliers.

 

[ShMiGgY]

i got my order just fine. Had tracking updates the whole way too. Left Shanghai on the 8th, got it on the 13th... never went through customs. This was OVER THE WEEKEND, mailed on Friday, picked it up on Wednesday. About as fast as if i ordered in the states.
Very impressed, and will most definitely order again very soon (next paycheck has a budget earmarked for juice and more 401's . Ruyan was excellent to me. Excellent CS, excellent shipping, and the product is very, very nice... (for half as much).
