Ordering a fulfilled by Amazon item through a Chinese company – dispatch UK or China?

Stuff from China usually takes 2 or 3 weeks, UK takes a week at most.

This is the item, what do you think? The line about priority delivery makes me think it's dispatched from the UK, but the company page address on Amazon is in China.

They show as Fulfilled By Amazon so it is amazon that will ship them to you so they wont be coming from china.

If its Fulfilled By Amazon it most likely will be shipped from UK or it might be shipped from one of Amazon's EU fulfillment centres (if not in stock within a UK one).

It most certainly will not be shipped from China, the seller who's stock it is could be based in China but they would have supplied their stock to Amazon for Amazon to dispatch it for them

They are cheaper on 2 chinese sites users here regularly use, in case you are in no rush. It should be below the limit for VAT.

At least I think they are the same.

Sellers could "dropship" these from China to amazon who then sell them on.
