Anyone still waiting for stuff from China?

ED E

Hey all,

Made a few orders back in November, some via ChinaPost and some from Singapore Post. Sing stuff was all through in under 14 days. CN is particularly bad.

#1 Left Shenzen Nov 18
#2 Left ?? Nov 20
#3 Left ?? Nov 22
#4* Left Guangzhou Dec 03 "Sent to airline"

*Has an international tracking number not CN only.

4wks would be normal, 5 at a push. Now I'm hitting 7wks. Even with 11.11/Black Friday/Christmas I'd expect them by now.

Courtesy of 17 Track. Note Avg 25days. Also note that the times may be exaggerated by the use of non international tracking numbers (package delivered by AP but CN post wont be updated).

Just like to get a feel for it before I dispute them all with sellers.

Cheers,
ED-E

I had four orders sent with China Post at end of October, three of them arrived in the week to ten days before Christmas. The final order sent on October 27th only arrived the day before yesterday.

I had other orders from the middle of November that arrived four weeks later like stuff usually does for me with China Post.

I've an order from HK from 21Nov that hasn't turned up. Requested and received a refund on Friday.

I've also an order from Canada on the 25th Nov that disappeared too. Must chase it up. I think my postman liked the look of the packages. Hope he was disappointed.

Talking to my post man this week as I was waiting on parcels from family in France : he said AnPost has a huge backlog on stuff from CN and that he had just delivered a parcel sent from Canada in October ... so hopefully all is not lost.

There were signs that there may have been cages and cages of stuff in the DMC for processing before Christmas.

Would be whopper to get a staffer from there posting on boards.

The worst ever delivery time from China I got in mid 2015 - something like 5 or 6 months, don't remember now.

The fastest ever - last week. Aliexpress purchase on 24th of December, China post, arrived here on 5th of January.

But, I made 10 purchases on that day, and only one came so far, so average throughput will be worse, obviously. :cool:

ED E

17 Track numbers coming way back down. Have extended buyer protection and we'll see how it goes.

Still waiting for a packet that left china on October 30 and a couple that left in november

My Canada package arrived this morning. Less than 24 hours after requesting a replacement!

48 days since it was posted, so there is still hope!

vandriver

I have one packet despatched on October 26th not arrived yet.The seller has agreed to replace it.

48 days from canada?? sweet baby jesus. It must have fallen down the back of a sorting machine and somebody spotted it recently

Ahh, no. Slight delay of their postal dogsled, I'd say.

The seller blamed frozen pipes!

Have 2 still 'on the way from China' from Aliexpress that were ordered on the 22nd November, had about 10 items ordered around the same time and the rest of them arrived before Christmas.

Wouldnt be surprised if our items are in the same 40ft.

Anyone having any luck with delayed/late shipments? Have 2 outstanding that I ordered on 22nd Nov as well.. no sign yet.
Chinese tracking ends on 3rd December... lost at sea?!

The widely varying shipping times are very frustrating.

There seems to be one hell of a delay in items from asia going back to october, still waiting on 4 out of 6 packets from 11/11 but definitely has been a lot slower of late

ED E

1/4 here still.

Whats worse is that one to arrive turns out to be an unusable product.

ED E

Ive just been informed that 2/4 has arrived.

Really curious if AP, CNP or an intermediary are responsible. I have my suspicions its AP.
