Shipping _ Banggood & GearBest _ Results are in

Just ordered something from BG. They included Priority Direct Mail shipping at no extra charge, maybe because of the value of the order? In any case, I received a tracking number, but I’m not sure who the carrier is. Google thinks it’s USPS, but the number is incomplete and there is no status. Maybe it will take more time before a status is posted?

My prior shipping experience with BG was not very good. I paid extra for expedited shipping and it took about 40 days to get it. Hope this one isn’t as bad.

I always pay extra for shipping (top tier) because you get a tracking number. I’ve done free and if your package gets lost then your SOL.

My banggood order shipped “standard shipping” or “air parcel register” went out FedEx Smartpost. 17track never figured out what it was.

I have found that of these tracking sites the PackageRadar usually tracks when many other fail.
I think they also have an Android app but that is only in Russian which I dont speak so I only use the main site.
At least the website is in English.

Recently BG deliveries take over a month to come here,while 6 months ago,it was 25 days max.

Thank you for this. PackageRadar recognized it as FedEx.

It may take some time before they show actual tracking info but they will send email notification when updates.

One other site to try if else fails is:
Shenzhen BEISHISHENG International Transportation Co.,Ltd
http://sky56.cn/english/track/index

This has been finding many of my orders PostNL Netherlands Post shown as carrier but the actual site not finding anything by tracking code yet.These tracking codes show like NL12345… , RS123… etc. and Sky56 seems to be the first part carrier and PostNL starts to track and show their own codes much later.

Yes, because it will take a while before FedEx actually gets a hold of the package. The package first needs to reach US, and as it turns out, my latest BG order is being shipped by Yun Express, which is some local carrier in China that’s going to deliver it to FedEx in the US.

When you look up your tracking number on FedEx.com, it should show you a reference number. That reference number is the related tracking number of the local carrier in China, and you can punch in that reference number at 17track.net or PackageRadar.com (or similar site) to see its progress while it’s still in China and before FedEx shows any tracking info on the US end.

I mainly use portable TrackChecker on my PC and they have a working Android app too.

my recent experience with BG is good, the fastest item arrived was 10 days.

Nice. Thanks!

Now, from about 2 month ago, the GB shipping fees to Uruguay are too expensive

Average shipping to me in S Africa from both banggood and gearbest is 9 weeks, tracking shows at least half that time is after arrival in the country. :frowning:

Just placed a order 08.03.2017 @ 2030

Hello me in the future. spoookeeey :person_facepalming:

My last order from BangGood with priority direct shipping took 7 days.

Me package is here. 8.14.2017 11 days from date order placed.

So far Banggood is A-Ok in my book for shipping.

NCD (new charger day) a thing? LiitoKala Lii-500

My 26650/18650 series connector are not here yet… been 23 days… :frowning:

Need a much larger test to get accurate results. Out of a ton of orders, there is no clear winner. Sometimes a vendor will get it here in a week or so and other times that same vendor will take 6 or 8 weeks. Order and forget until it shows up, write down the order dates and every week or so check that it is not getting to the paypal deadline.

I recently placed an order on GB, 6 items and the weight was 1.2Kg. The only shipping options were free 15-25 days and $7.54 via sweden post, crazy thing is that the paid shipping method says 15-30 days.

I chose free shipping at the time, but later realized if I removed one specific item from the cart the priority line option shows up. Already contacted GB to cancel that item and ship the rest via priority line…
