So I was out shopping for food ... and on the way home I started thinking about this 'customs' comment and realised there must be some tracking numbers to prove it true (or false) ... then I read the thread now again (10 more pages Tongue) and find it has been brought up.

But let me put it to you directly:

Firstly, the chips are being shipped from who to who?

Am I incorrect to say that the only customs involved is shipping the chips from Avalon to the customer?

Correct or false?
False, Customs doesn't ship, they only clear the package and charge import/export duty and taxes.
Read again - I said "involved is shipping" (OK was supposed to be "in" not "is" but that doesn't matter)

TSMC -> Avalon -> Customs -> Group Buy Host -> Individual Customers.

It is also a bad idea to share the tracking number because....as has been evident before Kano. Someone out there has been doing social engineering to steal Avalons...so a couple multiples of "ten thousand(s)" of chips would make a great DHL target.
No I mean give the customers their own damn tracking numbers Tongue
They can affirm or deny the customs claim ...

If that is correct, then simply give the shipping number to ANY customer and they can verify the truth of all this - since their shipping will show it stuck in customs this past week ... ... ... ... ... ... ... ...
Again, bad idea!

Anyone of those customers can call DHL and do the same thing that was done to multiple DHL customers of Avalon. (the packages were re-routed after someone impersonated a known customer)
Again, not a bad idea.
I really wonder why it would be a bad idea to give customers their OWN shipping numbers.
You sound like Avalon batch #1 ........

Isn't that your job - mail boy? Is there anything else you actually do for all the money you get paid by your customers? ... other than spend it in Vegas ...
Kano, don't lie, we know you can't afford food. Let alone speculating on vegas.
Not any more Smiley
Don't be [too] stupid about this Kano.

We are talking about publicly posting information. Not the individuals getting their own tracking number.

Nice try once you realized the fuck up on your end though.
