Royal Mail to China

Options
How reliable (signed for) is using the Royal Mail to China?
It says 5-7 days @ £7.75. Sending a document.
The alternative is a courier at £35

    I haven't used RM signed for for a while, but RM International Standard has proved very reliable to Hong Kong. Delivery 'aim' is 6 - 7 business days. Currently (ie last couple of weeks) taking about 10.
