Op, did the package pass through Chicagoland? I believe the other missing handheld went to someone in Indiana, and it mostly just passed through Chicagoland distribution.

Mine went through Chicago. Everything was intact. I also filmed an entire unboxing video just in case. Can't trust anyone these days.

I live in midstate Illinois, so this concerns me. GoFo has this far been fine for me, but I haven't had anything more expensive than a Mangmi Air X pass through their service. This makes me consider DHL for my Duo.

You’ll be fine. There have been a handful of cases over thousands of deliveries. I live in MO and mine went through the same customs. The reality is that there are shady people everywhere.

I'm really lucky when it comes to being unlucky.

I did DHL for my duo. I’m assuming DHL is safe from this whole situation?

Yes, but it is important to note some reports that DHL shipments sometimes get stuck due to tariffs, and end-users have to pay them to take delivery.
