Chinese New Year

Chinese New Year holiday time: January 13, 2020 to February 3, 2020

Are these dates accurate?

So this means that any orders from China back to Jan 13 are sitting in wait ??
Correct?

Yes, party time.

I heard it’s from Feb 25
I had some orders shipped yesterday but others have 22 days waiting time

Good I still have enough lights to play with.

Chinese New Year in 2020 falls on January 25.

FastTech will be on holiday from January 20, 2020, to January 31, 2020. Shipping and support will resume normal service on February 1, 2020.
:smiling_imp:

More likely from 1/20 to 2/3, about 2 weeks.

Even if your order does get dispatched by 1/20, it will just sit in a mailroom somewhere since their shipping companies are on holiday as well.

There’s always Amazon Prime. Nearly instant gratification. :smiling_imp:

Yep, a whole lotta hootin’ and hollerin’ going on those weeks, but nothing going through the mail.

The Chinese New Year of 2020 falls on January 25th (Saturday), and the festival will last to February 8th, about 15 days in total. 2020 is a Year of the Rat according to Chinese zodiac.

Happy Chinese New Year!

Think of how evil the average person is, and realize half of them are eviler than that.

Do you guys have something against stupid and evil people?

Because I'm 50% of each!

Yes I meant to say Jan not Feb, sorry :zipper_mouth_face:

The core of the festivities start at January 25th, and lasts a week, but the actual times vary.
Each seller and manufacturer mentiones different dates. Look at HERE.

In China things themselves are not running a “smooth” as they usually do this time of year.
There is an outbreak of the Corona virus, somewhat related to SARS.
So I would not get my hopes on any particular date for the next 4 weeks.

Which means I will most likely have to be patient until mid February before I hear if/when my prize from the Gearbest 11/11 GAW is shipped.

ah… that doesnt sound good with the corona virus :frowning:

Kung Hei Fat Choi, ‘neighbours’!

After the Chinese New Year ends it would be a good time to order any small items up to 4 lbs from China before July. That is when new International Postal Union agreement changes will likely raise shipping charges to the US.

We knew that already . :wink:

Happy Year Of Rat, all y’all.

Let’s hope the bugs don’t survive the trip across the ocean, or else some of us may be receiving some “free gifts.”
