Don't buy anything big ticket from Seeed!
I want to raise the alarm to anyone who, like me, had no idea what Seeed Studio was. Summary---if you are in USA, and can buy ANYWHERE else, do so! I was trying to get an Nvidia Jetson Orin devkit a couple months ago when they were very hard to get. Suddenly the option to buy from Seed Studio appeared, so I unsuspectingly purchased. OMG. I got an immediate shipment notice, so far so good. Then I started receiving strange emails from Fedex: "The package has arrived at the local customs and it is waiting for you to clear customs, please contact your local customs as soon as possible. Please provide the customs clearance materials to paperwork >: importer information sheet. Pls find it in the attachment. So your package won’t get return due to the package being held for too long in your local warehouse. Thank you for your cooperation!" Sounds like Phishing! Then really unprofessional emails began from Seeed threatening that I would lose both the product and my money if I didn't fill out paperwork and provide my SSN/EIN. Really! After days, it resolved. I received my kit. A week later a bill arrived from Fedex for over $200 in tariffs (thanks Trump). What a nightmare, never again!
