Hong Kong Delivery Poll

Post by cml001 »

So.. As u guys know I wanted to try out this mini quad racer thing.. To break into the scene I wanted a cheap kit without FPV gear to tinker with and try out.. As a lot of u, I took the suggestion to go with MyRCMart for their little 250. I've been waiting forever! Actuall just over 2 weeks.. My account status says "partially posted".. Took over a week to say that from processing.. And the tracking # since still says "preparing" to leave Hong Kong... I'm hoping they sent my entire order.. Scared they didn't due to the "partially posted" notation on the order info page... So.. Poll... How long has it took items to get to u (state ur location) from Hong Kong(from any vendor)?

It's generally taken 2-3 weeks for my stuff Clay, I order tons of stuff from China and hongkong, particularly electronic components but still the same I guess, only ever had one item undelivered after waiting 1 week over there estimated 2-3 weeks, I got my money back straight away... So personally I don't have a bad word against them.... I live in UK. One of my orders was for £900, scary but they came....

I ordered my Dart 250 frame from HK and it took 16 days to get from Hong Kong to Indiana. I thought that was a bit excessive but the time of my order did fall in with the Chinese New Year, so I'm sure that caused delays, too.

In New Zealand we can expect over a month but sometimes get surprised by stuff arriving in 2 weeks.

From China to Norway I usually expect about 2-3 weeks if cheap or free postage. But I'm not surprised if it takes over a month.
From USA to Norway I expect about the same, maybe slightly faster. Surprised if it takes longer.
From anywhere in Europe I expect 1-2 weeks.

As long as there is low or free postage I never get my hopes up - LOL
