Yass will be a little more expensive than the Chinese vendors but he sells top quality stuff. Any problems will be made right and you won’t have a long wait.
Yep i just checked Gearbest to get HE2 you can only shipping using UAE registered air. $10 extra. I always try and ship with Aussie post any ways. Its funny because it will still be an Australian post delivery no matter who you ship with. So depending on what port it lands in it could still be shipped via air either way?
Yeah me too UAE registered. Each battery has different shipping fee, not based on their weight. for example :
4 HE2 around $10
4 HE4 around $17
As far as I know gearbest also calculate profit from shipping fee. for example, SWM T25C discounted at $19.99 but shipping was close to $6 while other items with the same weight and same shipping method cost only around $2 or $3 shipping fee.
Must be fairly recent, because I got 26350s from banggood last month. My favourite is still Fasttech Australian registered line shipping, Gearbest offers something similar but they ages to pack and send.
BG have been making me sweat this out, but all good now
I placed an order for 4 NCR18650B’s (about $23.82AUD) some 10 days ago and was getting the run around but today I just got confirmation that they have been shipped out.
I’ve bought 3 sets of batteries from banggood last month (10th September, 10th September and 16th September), as of today all have arrived to me in Sydney. It took an average of 20 days for them to come to me (or 3 weeks), which is worth it considering the vast savings over buying from eBay.
I do notice that Fasttech and Gearbest are no longer shipping to Australia, but as far as I know Banggood is still doing it somehow. Buy up as many as you can now, next year the prices will increase when the restrictions come in place that totally ban batteries on airplanes.
With the recent increase in Li-ion shipping costs by the Chinese retailers, there isn’t much of a saving compared to buying from the above mentioned Australian retailer.
Banggood still has free shipping to Australia though. I just ordered a few weeks ago as I mentioned previously, and i saw they still have free shipping now.
The seller mentioned on this thread, “supersports600”, is selling 2 Samsung 30Qs for $26. From banggood I can buy 2 Samsung 30Q for 8.49USD or ~11.5AUD. At 44% of the price, it’s worth waiting 2 weeks extra for me IMO.
Not sure how long Banggood will keep shipping free though, thats why I’m getting a bunch of batteries right now.
