EHobby Asia delivery times question

NakedHedgehog

Need to order some batteries for TA4 and was wondering how long it took between ordering and delivery for those of you that have chosen EHobby Asia.

Thanks

4 -7 days if i remember correctly.

Captain Chaos

Took three working days for me. I placed the order on a Wednesday night and the package was in country on Monday morning. They are quiet fast.

[--SC(+)PE--]

Always being 5 days for me [most packages included a gun though]

o1s1n

It's so long since I bought one that I'm starting to forget

[--SC(+)PE--]

Rsov is the king now from my point of view ,3 guns delivered in 3 days from Hong kong yay

NakedHedgehog

Christ, Scope. Are you starting an army or something!? That's what now? Twenty Airsoft guns?

[--SC(+)PE--]

lol,1 of em was my mates gun. Although he hasnt collected it yet and im growing attached to the little thing [mp7] . ive 6 in all and im selling one of em off so im not to bad yet :rolleyes:

kdouglas

my order i placed on saturday for a gbb and a few other bits was on a plane from hong kong this morning, so should be in the country tonight and hopefully to my house thursday (fingers crossed), i also placed a seperate order for a new barrel for my mp5 on sunday, which i got a shipping notice for this morning, but there was no tracking number for that so cant say where it is now

from general experience, anything ive ordered from hong kong (not just airsoft) generally takes a week or less

[--SC(+)PE--]

cool what piece did ya buy? was it the m190?

EyesOnly

hmm my order from rsov (WE Hi-capa) ain't turned up yet was posted last Wednesday.

My last order from Ehobby took nearly a week and a half .

[--SC(+)PE--]

yea, went for the m190 with full auto option

cant wait for it to arrive.... i just know it's gonna get delivered when there's nobody in too

[--SC(+)PE--]

uhh i love waiting for that gun lol. I might get a third one someday who knows

kdouglas

a third one? you've only two hands?

o1s1n

I'm sure he'd find some use for it! Maybe one of his feet?

[--SC(+)PE--]

I'm sure he'd find some use for it! Maybe one of his feet?

the only reason id consider getting a third one is cos theirs a good china clone of it coming out soon which would probably be around half the price [are else it wont be worth realising] so i could get another 2 spare mags for the pair i got or for around the same price i could get a third pistol with a mag . And it would be good to be able to 1 or 2 parts incase fullauto has gone dead on one of mine.
and a third pistol is the fastest reload ever

Mark_Sc

Scope needs a third one just in case lads, you can never be too carefull

What one is that now?

[--SC(+)PE--]

Jg mp5sd6 ive hardly used it. lol it spent most of the day on my back when i went to H.R.T.A

kdouglas

hmmmm, the tracking website for hongkong post has said "The item left Hong Kong for its destination on 13-Mar-2007" since tuesday... should this change to show it has arrived in ireland, or does it not update once it leaves hong kong?

N.O.I.P.

If it goes to the UK first it tends to update but if it comes straight to ireland expect it to arriver unannounced on monday or tueday God bless An Post

kdouglas

cool, was just wondering why it hadnt updated.

still holding out for it to arrive tomorrow, im terribly impatient when waiting for new toys

N.O.I.P.

Believe me I know the feeling A friend of mine is importing a car from HK he has about 6 weeks of a wait ahead of him, I'd go nuts

NakedHedgehog

How would I go about ordering a couple of items from them? I don't want to end up clicking "Buy Now" and then having five seperate parcels and postages sent my way.

N.O.I.P.

If you buy them all at the same time they will combine them into 1 package, the only downside with ehobby is that they combine all the shipping costs so if you buiy 5 items that cost 15 euro each to ship your going to be paying 75 euro shipping

You're doing well. Last night I got a list together and started to buy around 10 items but it said you have reached the max number of items that can be sold from this seller. I have to wait 10 days to order more stuff.

I can only buy a max of 3 items every 10 days from ehobby!:mad:

NakedHedgehog

Oh man. Only 3?
Okay, so to get to that point, I'd have to click on buy now then yeah?

N.O.I.P.

if your feedback amount is less than 5 you will only be able to buy a limited amount of items you can send the guys at ehobby an email and ask to be added to their exclusion list and then you should be able to purchase al 10 items

Just click buy now for all your items and then click continue shopping, when your done go to My ebay account option and click pay all now.

Well ehobby are not answering any of my emails lately, I don't know what has happened to them, it almost like they just are not there. Unanswered emails and long order processing times, strange.

NakedHedgehog

You as well then. I sent them an email two/three days ago. Certainly not responding within the next working day as their mission statement claims.

I'm not sure if I should buy off them now.

kdouglas

i had no problems with them, order was processed pretty fast, i ordered on saturday and they shipped it monday. so ignoring the weekend, thats processed and sent within 1 day

That what I got first time I bought from them, they were very quick.

This time, I have sent emails last week and this week with no reply. I placed an order on Monday and another on Tuesday, both have yet to be sent out.

All I get off them is the automated emails.

I'll think twice before ordering from them again.

[--SC(+)PE--]

did ya get it yet? how ya finding it?

kdouglas

nah, it's in the package i mentioned above which just arrived in ireland, should be here tomorrow, tempted to stay home from college just to make sure there's someone here to collect it!

[--SC(+)PE--]

only tempted? pfft weres your dedication boy *slaps* ,Twould be an easy decision for me although im lazy so maybe ya should go 2 colledge. Ya'll love it anyway when ya get it thats for sure

kdouglas

yea, i know, it doesnt help that ive only one lecture tomorrow (it's review week), but it is a _really_ important lecture.... might have a word with the neighbour across the road

kdouglas

god dammit! there was a delivery notice sitting there this morning when i got up, they must have came at like 8 or 9... should be able to collect it this afternoon

my propane adapter from airsoft innovations arrived this morning too, wasnt expecting that until next week. pretty solid little thing, ill get some propane next week and test it out.

N.O.I.P.

You were in bad at 9!!! grrr I'd been on the for nearly 2 hours at that stage I really have to get a job closer to home.

If it was An Post who tried to deliver it you should be able to collect it in your local post office Run Run Now!!!

kdouglas

normally i get up at 7 for college, but decided to have a lie in this morning (in the hopes that the postman would arrive before i left the house and i would get to play with my new toy )

i rang the sorting office already, normally it's next working day for collections, but they said i should be able to collect after 3

NakedHedgehog

If it was an Post, you can collect it from the depot marked at around 4/4.30. I've missed three so far and have collected them same day every time. The trucks usually get back around 4ish, so leave it until 4.30 if you can.

Gazza22

Just an aside to this, do you pay vat on everything coming from Ehobby?

kdouglas

ssssh!

didnt get any notice of customs charges with it, so hoping there wont be any charge on it.

Gazza22

Good stuff!
