Buying orchids from Puerto Rico and importing to USA?

[astrid]

Hey everyone,

I found a great ebay seller called orchidsbyeli2014

I want to order this gorgeous encyclia cochleata from them (and a schomburgkia tibicini... and an encyclia cochliata var. alba... and more...) but I am worried about C.I.T.E.S. issues and importing them and customs and all that.

Since Puerto Rico is a US territory, I am wondering if importing would be merely like ordering an orchid from another one of the states.

So, have any of you ordered from Puerto Rico? How was it? I will snap this encyclia up in a heartbeat if I know I can safely get it here!!
Here it is:

Also, do you know the particular type of enciclya cochleata this is??
I really love its unique appearance compared to others, so I am guessing there must be a certain type like this and I might be able to search for it elsewhere if ordering from Puerto Rico is an issue in the mainland states of the US.

Thanks everyone!
