Ah OK, that's interesting, I didn't realize you actually had experience as a buyer with large shipments.
So I looked back at reptos' original post, and what he said was
"Awaiting Mexican gov't paperwork,Customs etc"
Notice he didn't say "Mexican Customs." This is probably just a misunderstanding. Sounds like they gotta finish the paperwork, get them through US customs, get them safely to the SD warehouse-- and from there, they can finally ship to stores!!
Wow, making shoes is complicated! :P
