Shipping methods

I want to get a TrustFire TR-005 from Sunsky:

I think someone (maybe BLF member 2100) wrote a quick and dirty guide on the different shipping methods, but I can't find it.

Which of these should I choose?

1. Surface Mail (NO tracking #) 10 - 18 working days $2.61

2. HongKong Post (NO tracking #) 10 - 18 working days $2.95

3. China Post 7 - 15 working days $3.97

Go with Hong Kong post. Better than China Post and much better than Surface Mail…. :stuck_out_tongue:

Their performance all greatly varies through time. A fixed guideline would not be of much help.

Right now I'd go with HK post.

I've been going with China Post Registered. (I ask for registered each time). That method has resulted in consistent 12-15 day arrivals and the hang up has been US customs. It sits in US customs longer than anywhere else.

So far shipping times from China to the US have been from 4 to 6 days, with US customs times of 5-7 days and US postal accounts for the other 2-3 days. That's how my last 8 orders have gone and that's from March to now.

Right now I have one sitting in Customs in NY, but I don't expect to see that one for another month, with the hurricane.

Okay, I went with HK post.

China Post Registered might be better, but I didn't feel like contacting the company this time.

Thanks everyone!
