Default DHL weight

So I'm having a package coming from China to U.S with some VeRo items and it weights about 21kg. I suppose it will enter through Cincy, my question is: Is the weight alone a red flag and is the Cincy HUB still being very strict on inspections?

Just the Word "CHINA" is a red flag...let alone Vero. They can inspect your package no matter what weight it is, I am sure the bigger it is the more it will attract the eyes of US Customs.

I'm hoping due to the large amount of packages come in around this time a year it may just slide by

Dream on. :D

If you're importing stuff that you shouldn't be, there is always going to be a chance of seizure.

Good money but huge risk factor

Haha, I bet you also think the inspection process is just a bunch of people "eyeballing" packages as they go by on a track.

Are you serious? The US is probably the number 1 importer of f@kes! There are probably thousands of foo-foo's coming into the US as I type this.

I don't mind, I used to sell it all. I didn't care where it was made, if it made a profit, I sold it. I'm now 100% legit and no problems but less profit margins. I don't care.
