I am pretty hard on Tracy/QSC because IMHO their poor customer service is the result of a deliberate choice to not spend money on staff. If it doesn't cost you customers, poor support never gets fixed. That seems true of pretty much every major company these days.

Having said that, I wouldn't be surprised if this wasn't an exit scam and QSC really is in a bit of hot water. Not pausing operations when their bank account was frozen should have been a major red flag, but everyone kind of shrugged it off. Probably should have disappeared then, but it looks like they got greedy.
It's not the first time they will lose an account. Lost an account mid 2024 for similar reason
 
Any of you guys in the know think this is seized ? Never seen it say detention before but then it says delivered to local carrier so not sure. Either way the last update was Dec 22

Hard to tell, there was a recent order with another Chinese vendor where the package made it through after being stopped in customs and every single bottle of tablets was emptied out. So petty for customs to even move it through after that
 
This. is. not. an. exit. scam.

Definitely not an exit scam, but it may not be in their control whether or not to resume business, fill any outstanding orders, or reship anything.

The incoming president has basically said, "get the fentanyl precursors under control or I'm going to slap a bunch of tariffs on Chinese goods." May be real or it may be a threat, but if Uncle Xi is taking it seriously, he might choose to round up some folks. I'm speculating this is the case, which has nothing to do with the changing de minimus regulations or any customs issues in the US itself.
 
One factory left. So if QSC resumes operations he and all the other vendors will have the same raws. ATM prices are sky high
Did you also hear this from one of the Chinese sources? Asking because one Chinese vendor told me some weeks back that their factory was under investigation by police. Though after some waiting my order came through anyways.

There is only one factory in play atm. All we get here and in other places, are resellers, no one is a true api manufacturer.
