Shipping from overseas - true time?

piglet25

Hi, I am waiting on roughly 37 packages to arrive from China, Hong Kong and Singapore on economy delivery they quoted 14-21 days, just wondered what the actual time taken is from peoples experience?
Also waiting for an 'expediated' (!) parcel, they said 4-8 days, just wanted to ask if this is an accurate estimation?
Thank you!

Soolin was quoting th eother day that hers were taking about 30 days. Just keep an eye on your dispute timelines in case you need to open one.

Thnaks, was getting a bit twitchy because most of them have gone over what they quoted now, just checking - its 45 days for an INR claim?

What I am currently doing is email a basic 'hi my item hasn't arrived yet ' email on about day 30, they usually ask you to wait a week and then let them know if item still hasn't arrived, and that means you can wait the week and still be within the 45 day claim time frme.

I am still getting some items arrive in around 3 weeks, but I've also had some take up to 48 days, which is after I've received a refund so I have had to repay the seller. There seems to be some quite serious issues with post from the Far east at the moment.
