    Hi Everyone,

    I am thinking of ordering some things and was wondering how customs clearance was going for everyone. So far I know I have received the two packages I ordered, but was wondering if anyone had issues.

    Thanks

    as far as customs clearance, as long as your shipment has all the correct paperwork and is not counterfeit, there's usually not a problem at all.

    Things that won't have problem with customs:

    Small boxes
    Things in small quantity
    Declared as gifts
    Declared as a low value

    I agree with what kornflique said above here. Just one more point i have to add is that when you purchase in bulk , pls request your suppliers to divide into several times sending and as well send to different address of your relatives here.

    I order electonics from China via DHL at least once a month. I've never once had a problem.

    My suggestion is that you keep it honest and keep it real. Customs can catch up with you when you least expect it. You may think you can fool them for a while, but it could catch up to you.

    Don't do anything to raise red flags. Regarding Chinese imports, you can believe that US Customs is keeping a special eye on counterfiets and the like.

    Keep it real.
