    Hong Kong is pretty good, usually 5-10 working days for me, I get many small items and they are definitely not forking out big money on the post. I would be very surprised if it didnt arrive before then.

    Sometimes you will, sometimes you wont. It's just the luck of the draw.

    I buy a lot of expensive airsoft gear from China. Been lucky with VAT so far. About to put in a large order this week. I have a feeling this could be the one :(

    You can ask sellers to mark it as low value.
