Shipping from China?

Why (or how) is it that the ebay shippers from China seem to be able to get the goods here a lot quicker than most everyone else that ships from China?

I have wondered that myself. They use regular post with stamps. The bigger sellers get a postage discount and post items in bulk so maybe it slows things down.

But I will NEVER order from there again! Placed a order with Intl-outdoor and it shipped on the 5th. ridiculous. Did the ship sink?

If I could consistently get items from China delivered to my door in 9 days from the day I ordered I’d be buying more frequently from China!

I have an order coming from Exduct and from two Chinese ebay sellers (of knives). Everything was ordered about the same time. I have a feeling I’ll get the ebay knives much quicker than the Exduct knives.

This is my first Exduct order so I really have no basis for those comments.

It’s because the bigger vendors get subsidized shipping so in return for basically free shipping they have to make the customer wait a little longer

also consider that big china sellers have bigger logistic and dont have all in wh waiting the suppliers
ebay sellers usually have ready to be shipped what they sell

Yeah, I’ve taken that into account. I was just looking at the difference between when they all said that an item had shipped. The difference is amazing.
