I ordered two c8 lights, and two batteries on Feb 26th. now it is march 28th…
I still do not have them. Simon told me he shipped via Sweden post, and it takes time.
Does this seem like a normal time frame? I know he shipped them, I was able to see that in tracking, I am concerned Sweden post has misplaced them.
Where did you live?
My experience with Sweden post is always the slowest to reach Malaysia
My last order from Simon was delivered in exactly three weeks (China post registered air).
No longer than 3 week’s to the UK.
I wonder if the delay has been caused by ordering batteries and the changes that were made as to how they can be sent?
I wish people would fill in the location box when they register, more often than not the Country is sufficient. :-/
I’ve placed 8 orders from Simon in the last six months. Average delivery time = 21 days. Shortest = 13 days. Longest = 32 days.
Sorry, I haven’t kept track of shipping methods - but I can tell you that all were free shipping options.
It took about a month to get my light from Simon. I’m in the South-West US
I live in the north east USA. A month to ship anywhere seems excessive? I told my friend his light would be here in 10-15 days ( that’s what it said when I added to cart)
Has anyone in the US waited over a month for things from convoy?
See three posts above.
My deep carry clips from Simon”s Aliexpress shop took over 3 months to arrive & according to tracking are still in China ?
Thank you
If longest was 32 then it should be here soon enough. It’s odd how much time can change between orders. I know he ships asap
Something seems wrong there!
Fixed
The lights said 10-15 days. If the batteries take so much longer I would have made separate orders!
Simon is absolutely not the fastest, all my orders with him took at least a week longer then AliExpress sellers usually take. But what arrives totally makes up for the wait!
Shipping times from china are always a roll of the dice. Just because normal time is 10-15 days does not mean it can’t take 3 months if you’re unlucky.
Funny, I noticed the same thing. He does take longer and the wait is worth it. 
Just checked & it is still showing “Seller shipped your order” but it is still showing as being between there & ”
Depart From Original Country”, so still in China.
It is also saying “Tracking information is temporarily unavailable.” which it has said all along since it was despatched by Simon.
I know this has nothing to do with Simon as he sent the parcel & I have it in my possession.
I just received an order from Simon today and it took about 3 weeks to get here. Problem is I confirmed delivery before opening the package! I ordered 3 lights and only received 2.
I sent him a message, hoping he will take care of it.
Don’t worry Simon is good.
But I suggest you never click that confirmed delivery button, it serves zero use to you, only hurts you potentially. I nuked the button with my adblocker.
Thanks, I’ll remember that next time! I’ve only placed three orders on aliexpress in the last four years
Just curious why they were sent Sweden post and not ePacket?
The default free shipping method on his listings for a c8 or any flashlight or host is: ePacket 10-15 days.
The second option (also free) is China Post Airmail (15-40 days)
AFAIK Sweden Post is similar to China Post but slightly faster. Sweden post IS NOT ePacket.

I haven’t ordered anything from there yet but I plan to soon. After reading this I’m going to confirm when ordering the shipping will be ePacket as shown as default in his listings.
