Hey Everyone,
Welcome to another action packed episode of "Customs Roulette" where we make something exciting, you give us your hard earned money, and the Customs Officers of various countries try to foil our plans for on-time fulfillment.
This week, we've got some exciting news. As I write this, the finished O2s are being loaded on a plane bound for JFK. Once they land, it's an easy 60 minute truck ride to our NJ fulfillment center. If all goes according to plan, these should start shipping out by this time next week (Oct 5-7).
That said, this wouldn't be "Customs Roulette" if everything always wen't according to plan. As always, there is a possibility that the US Customs decides to pull our package aside and scrutinize it. This can happen for any number of reasons, but fear not, we're already prepared with every conceivable piece of documentation the US Customs office can request.
Shipping manifests, freshly minted FCC Certification (interestingly enough, the O2 was never certified by the FCC, we took care of that), itemized BOM list of every component, a map detailing the location of Jimmy Hoffa's grave, we've got it all ready to fax/scan/fly over at a moment's notice.
Thanks for your patience, support, on-going discussion, entertaining complaints (the un-entertaining ones.... words hurt guys... I am not made of stone), and everything else.
It's been a long journey but I'm glad we'll reach the finish line together (unless you canceled, no finish line for you).
I'll be around tonight and tomorrow answering questions but if you have anything pressing, feel free to email me as always: will@massdrop.com
