Sorry man.
I'm very very angry with FedEx. My company's export to HongKong was seized by Customs. Apparantly FedEx took the CITES license out of the transparent case out of the box, and the forgot to replace it.
THe consignemt is 20 pieces, 10 Rosewood, 5 Ebony Sandalwood and 5 Zitarn. ARGH!!!
I spent 1 morniung with FedEX. Possibly my fault too, when i was sick and in bed, i had my people to help me with these things.
MESSAGE: Have a spare copy of CITES ready at the IMPORTER's hands before sending out goods.

So, does FEDEX still have the CITES docs at hand to deliver to Customs? Will you need to procure new or replacement licenses?
Here's hoping for the best!
Best wishes,
David

I'm sure the "insurance" doesn't cover that either. The local branch of pretty much any of the carriers add 2-3 days onto any shipment. I remember it once took USPS a week to deliver a letter across the street (certified, im not that lazy).
Assuming they insure stuff outside the US. See, now the irony of this post is that I just happen to be watching Tom Hanks in Cast Away right now. He does have a huge stack of rectangular fedex boxes...

never mind.
hey, my company got a new dizi and xiao maker, and we have some new advancements in the making, which makes dizi easier to blow and sound sweeter. Xiaos are good too.
Just to cheer everyone up!
