Are Chinese orders to the US going through okay?

Has anyone tried shipping any vape gear from a Chinese store to the US recently?

I ordered 2 Geekvape Aegis Boost 3's and a bunch of coils on July 27 from Health Cabin. After asking a couple of times, they offered to refund my money today.

I know there's stuff going on with tariffs and am wondering if I should re-order or just take my refund and pay full price here in the states.

I can't mail order from a store in the states because it is way too much of a pain to be there to sign for the package. Last time the package just ended up getting sent back before I could sign for it.

I haven't tried in a little while but Sourcemore has a US warehouse.
You may be able to get some of the items there.

Do I have to sign for shipments from Sourcemore?

That's why I stopped ordering from US web sites. Too much of a pain to sign for the package.

I might be paying retail at a brick and mortar store if I can't order it online.

I have never had to sign for one from there.
I hate the wait at the mailbox half the day to sign or drive to the post office method, too.

What makes you think Sourcemore has a US website?

their shipping page says they have 4 warehouses, 2 in Russia and 2 in China.

Because the package doesn't get directly shipped to me..

it gets shipped from China to a US Wearhouse where the Chinese label on the package gets a usps label stuck over top the Chinese one.

I literally track the package from China to the US.

That's when the tracking number magically changes from a Chinese label to an American label
The tracking says: "Package arrived at US Wearhouse" then a day later it says "Package has left US Wearhouse"

....and then the package shows up at my door with a regular usps postage label on it even though the China label is still stuck under the usps one on the same package.,
