thing about F/E is we dont really enforce it very much, maybe 20% F/E when they see that message, so it just helps clear some of the funds to u a little faster.. which in turn actually allows a smoother process of running the business and sending to you. I had never required F/E but at the same time we do not reship any of these products either, not requiring F/E was just for peace of mind of the customer really. But because there is no reship, it doesn't actually make any differences.
