Why take out Vero

You only ever flog it.

If it is not Vero for the most part it shouldn't matter than.

If you are selling Vero items be sure that Customs is now keeping track of who gets what. Just a warning. 10 years ago you would just get a letter saying items were seized and going to be destroyed. I use to know people with 15-20 of these letters. Now days, "ICE/Homeland Security" will get a warrant come to your door if you meet the threshold seize your items and you will be issued a court date.

Hopefully you are not dealing with Vero "phake" items.

That is just a forewarning. Usually anything e-packet just comes through no problem. Normally single items. It like snail mail. Don't worry it will arrive.

Chicago used to be OK. Then they either got a new facility or expanded the old one. Now, everything seems to be delayed and they seem to check EVERYTHING. I ordered 3 MOLEX to SATA power cables. These are tiny, non-branded, 50 cent items. They were shipped in a tiny E-packet and guess what??? It was opened by customs!

So, basically, Chicago SUCKS!

Edited to add: I just thought of this... maybe the package was so small they thought it might contain drugs??? They must have been disappointed! :-)

Chigago has been on a down-hill slide for months.

We never use flights that might end up there.

You will get the package soon if the items are not phake .

The service of post office always is not good as DHL and fedex,so it is normal for a delay within a couple of days .

This is exactly what OP does since the first day they signed in to this forum. This post should have been deleted along with the dozens of other posts OP has had deleted when complaining about their coun/terf/eit operations.
