Hello! My ring is done, and it''s been sent to me (in Japan) from whiteflash! for reference, I had a ring that I wanted to change the center stone, and I got the stone from whiteflash. no one here would set it for me so i sent the ring to them to set, and they did and put the old diamond in a pendant they custom-made for me. i have pictures that they sent me that i can''t figure out how to upload, but they turned out really nice.
i''m obviously excited and checking the fedex website every two seconds, and right now the tracking info says "shipment exception" and "Regulatory agency clearance delay," it''s at Narita airport at the moment... what do those status codes mean? will there be a problem with customs? I had the diamond shipped to me for inspection about 3 weeks ago, and last week I got a bill for about $20 for import tax, and that was only on about a $600 stone... is it more difficult for a higher-value package to clear customs?? this one is more expensive since it has both my diamonds, the ring, and the pendant in it. i''m really nervous about this, especially since fedex is taking longer with this package than they did with the diamond... someone please reassure me about the shipping status!!!!
unfortunately i can''t call even fedex since it''s 11 pm here on saturday, and they''re closed till monday.... and i don''t think i can wait till then to find out why it''s delayed!!!
thanks!
