I say just step up to DHL. I love DHL, HK to USA in under 4 days 
The rest of the shipping methods just suck, not consistent, lose 1/2 the items, damage them in transit, etc……
I wont purchase from overseas anymore mainly due to the shipping. Its not thatb I have an issue with the suppliers, I just dont want to deal with them when the package is lost or damaged.
BTW still waiting on my SS flashlight. Received a few PMs from you guys asking for my tracking number but ive been told many times that the HK# I got was just a reference number so I have nothing to give you guys and you have nothing to update me on……its a waiting game until 45 days come and then its paypal claim time. Unless you want to send another one now, then there is nothing you can do to help us outn
