OneMoreFarang Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Before Chinese New Year I had good experience. My last order which was dispatched on the 27th January didn't arrive until now. I expect things will be back to normal about middle of February. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normally I receive goods within about 10 to 14 days after they are sent. Or, within 1 to 3 days after arrival in Thailand. I chose the cheap Chinese mail because >90% sure I never have to pay any tax and duty. I just ordered another package from another supplier (within AliExpress). If you like I can confirm when it arrives. Edited February 9, 2022 by OneMoreFarang Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scubascuba3 Posted February 16, 2022 Author Share Posted February 16, 2022 I've just ordered and it's coming via epacket, tracking looks like it's marginally better than a year ago. Let's see if the package disappears into a black hole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ordered something from AliExpress, send with registered mail and (according to them) declared with a value < 50USD. Let's look how much they want to collect. For the record: I received many parcels from China and this is, as far as I remember, only the 2nd time in years that I have to pay. But then again this time the parcel is 3.5kg, most of the time I order smaller things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stubuzz Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 10 days to the UK from China with the free shipping option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cake Monster Posted February 16, 2022 Share Posted February 16, 2022 There are no delays with AliExpress. Most of the long delays are caused by the buyer not selecting the best Delivery option avaiable, which sometimes costs just alittle more. I have found that anything using the " Chainso " ( think thats right ) option take a very long time, as the delivery seems to be routed through Changi Airport. 12-15 Days seems normal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I even had it one time that I waited about 10 days and they still didn't ship and then I cancelled the order. Let's not forget that AliExpress is not one supplier. There are (probably) thousands of suppliers. They are not all the same. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are indeed correct, there are Thousands of suppliers, but from all the dealings I have had using Ali, I can only speak about my findings thus far. I once had a similar experience as yourself, but there was not a delay on shipping, it was the tracking that had a Hiccup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
