It's CNY, most factories don't re-open until the 6th February, so your TD may be waiting until at least then before next steps.

Patience is a virtue when it comes to ordering reps. You're being a bit premature.

Fair enough. That is a little more comforting. I was just a bit worried as I'm sure you could imagine being the first one. Thanks for your advice though.

I have a deal with Hont as well, paid him beginning of January, but factories were starting to close down. Said he’ll be back February 10th. Just a waiting game, and luckily you don’t have to wait as long as I have. I think the waiting is good for me though because now I get to inquire about triangular shipping or some options as I’m in the US!

As long as you used the contact information found here, you haven’t been scammed.
It's CNY, sit back and relax.

Yeah I did get a response yesterday which eased my worry! Hopefully all goes well and I will keep the journey posted for others to see. Once I've broke the cherry I'll probably order a load more! Let me know how you get on too

Any of you guys got some QC yet?
I wouldn't panic yet, Chinese New Year lasts two weeks. Imagine shutting down a business for two weeks and then trying to catch up. Shipping companies will also have a backlog, so that may be delayed as well. This time of year is notoriously slow due to their new year celebration, but it picks up after a few weeks and returns to normal. You should be good :)
