Seems many suppliers can't ship certain items because something is going on in china customs....

Depends who you're shipping via.

If you dont have a good supplier who doesnt have a very good shipper it will never clear the country... even via DHL.

Good supplier they should have a good shipper and youre all good - Trust me to the UK they are sending ANYTHING !

6 more packages got on line now in hong kong via hong kong ems.

But 3.15 will get some delay for all the packages ,because that day is special day because it is called "customer' day" and the govermen will check all the af ake goods very strickly

Please explain 'customer day'. Will they be checking here or in China? I have a package leaving China today via EMS. Probably will be going through customs here in the US around that time.

[HurricaneHuntr]

Sorrry about confusing people... it was factory inspections going on... and yes 3/15 i hear is special customs check day

[seanws30]

customer day? what do i get? cards? flowers? CHOCOLATES?

[teedon]

It is International Day for Protecting Consumers' Rights in 3.15,china goverman will carry out several activities and show the people they are doing their duty to protect consumers'right,so checking fak e iems is one of activities.

But it is a show only,only 1 day or a few days.

Is this only in China or is it in Hong Kong as well?

[teedon]

Hong kong is 1 part of china,so hong kong is involved in those activities as well. I think your chinese supplier will tell you about this issue and will know how to avoid problems during this peroid.
