My last purchase took 8 weeks. Arrived yesterday.
some stuff is taking a long time at the moment some not, 2-weeks too 8.
If you are buying something decent ($100 ish) usually in here in 2-3 weeks. For small things, it could be up to 8 weeks
At least that is my experience
4-5 weeks for my last few orders. According to tracking more than half of that time was after arrival in NZ.
If possible try to find the same item shipped from Hong Kong, Singapore or Taiwan. I had 4 items delivered a day apart, 11 days all in.
My last 3 orders arrived in 2 weeks. But most of the time they arrive way after I've forgotten that I ordered them. It's like Christmas.
Must I.....
You guys should get into "Victorias Secret" and "Boys Lie" wife orders stuff off them all the time and somehow gets here from the states in 4 or 5 days max. EVERYTHING I have ever ordered from overseas has taken longer than that, hell most stuff I have bought within NZ takes longer than that. Pretty sure theres some secret girl-code conspiracy where theyre taking up all the worlds shipping capabilities
Using the free shipping option on Aliexpress can take up to 3 months paying for shipping is usually way quicker.
Took around a month for one of the two headlamps i ordered to arrive, other headlamp took one week. No idea how they managed that. Shipping time seems to depend on who you buy the product from, or which warehouse it ships from. Not sure how China manages to have such low shipping costs. Lots of stuff I want to buy from the states costs an extortionate amount of money and it takes a lot longer.
I had a motorcycle part arrive in the country from Aliexpress after 4 weeks. NZ depot sent it back to China for no reason at all. Aliexpress has had to re post another, so another 6 or so weeks wait. You just couldn't make this shit up...we're in trouble people.
I bought a couple of things recently. An ultra sonic cleaner took 2 months, scope rings 4 weeks.
Last two small items were no longer than ten days using "free shipping".
last couple things ordered Nov 7th, arrived 18th, that is the quickest I've ever received anything form Ali
Complete stuff ups,
One purchase said I had recieved & signed for in Singapore, nice but delivery address is ChCh. Next the seller kept refering me as the seller, only provide Chinese order No so no NZ tracking, asked the seller for a refund aftr corrispondance when 2 weeks late, AliExpress gave a date if no refund had happened by they would step in, receive E mail on that date! from AliEx deal finished.
I've had it, closed down, good luck, just don't need the hassle.
Quickest item was less than a week for one of those cracking little 18650 headtorches, but mostly 10-14 days. Had no blowouts or ballsups yet. I just approach it like an investment, never buy anything a can't afford to lose (or not have turn up).
