I have scoured the internet trying to find out what is going on with New Zealand. Here is everything I've found.

I'm going to compile a list of orders sent to New Zealand and talk to a USPS regional manager about getting refunds for everyone.

Stic, have you had anything through customs since the 1 July permit announcement? Is it still safe to order?

The referring link points to outbound. I do not see anything regarding inbound.
From my reading all will get through but just much slower.
So we just need our boxes through customs before the 1st of July and hopefully we will be right. Fingers and toes crossed.

Here is the most encouraging news I've heard in a long time.

"Hi Don

Just to say I have received all my orders now, including #21832, CJ497327596US from late last year. NZ post wrote to me saying they have it and I need to sort it out. USPS shows undelivered.

Thanks"

My order has been shipped from WLT and is en route to myus.com. I set my shipping preferences for FedEx priority (as express options appear to come with a 30% discount on freight for first shipment), selected “keep in original box”, set shipping for automatic and upgraded to same day processing. Will keep you updated

I am happy to wait as eventually it will arrive. Our customs and post are slower than snails at the best of times. The problem I have is trying to do an order and it's not coming up with any shipping options. Says can't find your address. When I try to put in an alternate NZ address. New Zealand doesn't come up in the region/country list.

Hopefully someone who knows how to use MyUs will offer some help. I do not know how MyUs works.

Noooo ! Would hope as my parcel is in transit that it's going to continue. I'd just love it to land in NZ then I can deal with the wait !

I am getting so frustrated. I got a "myus" address and they advised me they dont ship whole leaf tobacco, but I see here they do. Also found attached new imports rules, that I cant really understand. ( A bit thick sometimes but i'm not blonde just old, that's my excuse) Can someone read it and let me know in simple language and let me know how to get our orders here from Don.
