Have that happen plenty with USPS packages from eBay. Tracking just freezes and never shows as delivered.DMan7 wrote:Anyone ever had your Skybox say they received your package in Miami and when you go to your Amazon account it saying it hasn't been delivered yet and will be delivered within the next 2 days?

In Setting up the address on Amazon, a phone number is required.
What is the phone number for the RPM express Miami warehouse?
AND
When checking out in Amazon using the RPM express address, I am seeing that taxes are charged. Is that normal?

Seems like Aero and Websource exempt you from the Miami tax.st7 wrote:has anyone tried to claim back the tax from Amazon though since we arent 'Murican? i wonder if any skyboxes do that.
I saw something recently on websource page (not exact words) which implies that their addresses is listed for export only, so maybe that is how they bypass the tax.
So this could be a thing with the ones who allow the tax?
(Also they might have no choice. I not sure how these things work.)
Btw do any of these Aero or Sauce have a membership fee?
I checked the sites but didn't see anything.

Aeropost.com shaves 7% off offline shopping
Loop News November 10, 2016 03:28 PM ET
E-commerce company aeropost.com is giving customers seven percent back on their purchases, due to a commercial exemption with the State of Florida.
The recently implemented Online Purchase Tax (OPT) has made customers wary of added costs for shopping online.
However, Aeropost.com has announced that any customers buying items online through their company will effectively save on the OPT as customers will not have to pay a seven percent tax usually attributed to all US purchases made in Florida.
Customers can purchase items online and ship them to their Florida shipping addresses without paying state sales tax, which varies between six and seven percent, depending on local municipalities.
As a result, customers can negate the OPT of seven percent which was placed on items shipped into the country by air*.
Purchased items, therefore, will consist of the cost of the item, delivery costs within the US, and local charges (VAT, import tax, OPT) – delivery within Trinidad is free.
Managing Director Gillian Rodriguez-Clark said this service means customers can still buy ‘just about everything’ from their favourite US retailers, just ahead of big online sales like Black Friday and Cyber Monday.
She affirmed that the measure is legal given the company’s commercial agreement with the State of Florida, where the company’s warehouse is located.
She added that this agreement is exclusive to aeropost.com.
Courier company Aeropost maintains that the newly-implemented seven per cent online purchase tax (OPT) is unfair as it adds another layer of costs to the online shopping community.
At a press conference hosted at the company's head office at Fernandez Industrial Centre, Laventille, yesterday, managing director Gillian Rodriguez-Clark said the company, while maintaining its legal obligation to comply with the tax, is not in favour of it.
"Our position on this tax is clear. We are not in support of it as we do not believe it has been fairly applied across all modes of shipping of online purchases. Like many other companies in our industry we have concerns about the mechanics of the tax which is unfairly targeted at just those of us bringing e-commerce by air. The tax also makes items more expensive for general consumers," she said.
Rodriguez-Clark said because of the company's more than three decades in the shipping and logistics business and its record of working closely with the US Government Customs and Border Protection Agency in Florida, Aeropost has been able to secure a tax exemption allowing its customers to save the US dollar taxes they would have incurred on their online shopping purchases.
