I've gone anywhere from 2-6 weeks on orders from China. To be expected though when I cheap out on the shipping.

 Ever heard the term "slow boat from China"? That's how they're shipped. | |

The main warehouse is in hong kong i do believe so shipping will take a while. if they sent you a tracking number though you should be able to see where your package is and an estimated delivery date.

I've spent alot there over a while. None from the us warehouse, but to FL cheap shipping is usually 2 weeks tops. With express it was much faster. I think it was DHL,not sure as i usually go cheap. Everything has always been great |

Yea when I buy from the overseas warehouse I make sure im ok not getting it for at least 6 weeks. The price and quality often justifies it. With my addiction I don't foresee my interest dropping any during the wait. Just major sucks about the wait.

It's better if you buy in "bulk" and pay the fast shipping. It's gets to you in a week or so. Done it with friends where everyone chips in and cover the shipping and price.

I bought a few lipos from them, usually 1-1/2 weeks. I just make sure I pick the parts from a U.S. warehouse. Once I wasn't looking and clicked an Aussie warehouse item, took about 3- 3 1/2 weeks. Now I double check what warehouse it is coming from. |

They ship out of Honk Kong unless otherwise stated on the item like the others have said. But they seem to be taking a f'n long time to dispatch stuff lately. I bought a handful of pack form them about a month ago. Paid for EMS 3 days shipping....Took them over 2 weeks to dispatch the package, then got it in 2 days. |

I got some battery packs from the USA warehouse and got them in a couple days. I actually ordered two 6S and got a free big 4s hard case. Not sure if that was just an accident.
