Bit the bullet and used Trincargo as I am already a client and they have provisions for that stuff and have done batteries in the past with them.
Nice thing is no state tax lol.
Just wanted an idea on the general consensus.

[st7]

What are the options for shipping a laptop/cell phone battery?
Jetpack says prohibited and customs will seize. Others say classed as a hazardous item and will attract a charge.

i've shipped a couple of cell phone batteries already. it was classified as external storage or sumn so lol

Some sellers allow single items etc but shipping is a bit*h for those single items(sometimes cost more than the item itself)...
Yes they ship directly to you locally or can do via your skybox address

Will save alot if buying bulk items at most or a major equipment etc

For the "retail section" would recommend aliexpress if want single items etc.. Also again do a full check of the seller profile and check for aliexpress secure buyer

I had to use the aliexpress secure once with a phone purchase... Ordered the phone and tracked it noticed that the item is being returned due to some bad delivery info they put and seller said he seeing item as delivered cant refund... Went thru aliexpress and sent the info and got back refund in 20 mins

18 November 2023

Thieves broke into Caribbean Airline's Jetpak Warehouse and later walked past an employee with their stolen loot on Thursday.

Uncutt News Media understands that two men stole thousands of dollars in Apple gadgets including cell phones and watches from the company's warehouse at Iere House, Golden Grove Road in Piarco during the early hours of Thursday 16th November 2023.

The boldface robbers later walked past a delivery driver who arrived at the warehouse to begin his tour of duty, with bags containing the stolen items.

Around 2:30 am on Thursday, a police report states, that the warehouse was secured by an officer employed with First Guard Security Services Limited.

However, around 4:44 am, a delivery driver arrived at the warehouse to begin duties when he pressed the buzzer but got no response from the warehouse attendant.

Uncutt News Media understands that the driver peeked through a window and observed two men, one of them wearing a grey Jetpak t-shirt and masked over his face, packing items into bags.
The employee pressed the bell a second time and the two men approached the door, opened it, and casually walked past him with their bags of stolen items.

A check was later made inside the warehouse which was ransacked and several iPhones, Apple Watches, and tablets were missing.

There were no forced signs of entry and a report was later made to the police. Investigations are continuing into the incident.

You can email them and they would send you the export certificate for your item. Make sure to send them in the email the shipping no.

There's no attitude in my question.
It's a simple question.
Also do I need the export certificate for every single item I brought in with websource this year?
Thanks for the info.
