    depends who you have dealt with, dealxtreame etc takes 21-28 days, usually because they wait until they have a certain no of orders before they put theirs in, if it is a watch or something else from ebay 10-13 days.

    From the time it is posted usually 5-10working days, depending on service. Items like the battery are likely to be held in customs which can add any length of time they wish.

    No telling how long the shop will wait until posting though.

    There's more than 1 shop in Hong Kong, so it would depend on where exactly you bought it as to whether you're likely to have problems or not.

    It's likely to be non-genuine, even if it is branded. Quality on such items varies, depending on the item. Knock off memory sticks tend to be slow, USB caddies can be of poor quality, batteries could have shorter life, may get hot, or not retain charge for as long. Then again, it could be fine.
