Right now we are actively trying to get the manufacturer to recall the shipment and then resend, fingers crossed....

That is an interesting theory. I worked for Harley for 4 years....they have a team of lawyers that spends their time searching the web and sending out cease and desist orders on products that use anything close to their myriad of trademarked products.

The skull thing shouldn't hold up tho...there are lots of motorcycle products that use the skull.

Very little accountability...they gave us a reason through our shipper stating "trademark infringement" which is bizarre - Chris theorized that maybe they saw the skull tips and thought they were a rip of Harley Davidson, we just don't know and await their communication on this through the US Mails.

If they think there is trademark infringement the manufacturer probably won't be able to recall the shipment. They'll seize it as evidence (counterfeit goods).

If that is the track customs is on, I would recommend making backups of all your computers and keeping those backups off site. If they decide to turn their eyes on you as the recipient/distributor of those goods you'll likely have them knocking on your door; and it's standard practice for the FBI to take all computer equipment and electronic storage devices back to their labs for analysis. You'll need the backups to get back up and running on the new computers you'll have to buy.

I really hope it's just a glitch and they'll release the shipment to you soon!

You can do that on a PC as well... On a thread that you haven't read all of the post you will see the large envelope on the far left, then a small round icon with two down arrows ( chevrons ) followed by a letter looking icon... Hover over the round icon with the chevrons in it and it should say something like go the first new post or something similar.

That's great to know rdsok... my right index finger thanks you!

Oh wow, Dan! That sucks so much! Poo, I'm gonna have to think up a replacement present for Mr. Bonny. Hmm... I would just get him some vaping gear to go along with the rest of what I have, but I wanted something unique like those skull tips. It could (and probably will, if you ever get them) be a late present :laugh:

I hope you get all of this straightened out!

As an IT person for a good sized company, any company who does not have an off-site backup is playing with fire, also recomend a cloud based backup, even something as simple as carbonite would work.

Does customs hold the whole shipment, even though it is one item in question? I wonder why they don't release the rest of it. I know nothing about customs.

Then customs would have to re-pack part of the shipment, while holding the rest, which would be extra work for them.
