Order from China

moefoemil

Hi all,
This has probably been asked plenty of times in the past but, I've just ordered a seatpost from AliExpress in China (a store called TTBikes store). It says processing time 10days and delivery time 15-29 days (but can take up to 59days). My seatpost is getting shipped via China Airmail (free shipping).
What I was hoping someone could tell me was, how accurate are the delivery times, and how long on average do you normally wait for stuff from China? Plus, if anyone's used TTBikes store themselves, what was it like?

Thanks in advance.

Delivery times from China in my experience, can be a bit of a lottery. I've ordered titanium axles for Speedplays on two separate occasions from the same ebay vendor. One time they took over three weeks. The other time they arrived within a week and half.

You will receive most things within 3 weeks. Occasionally you have to wait longer, and smaller objects can be there within 1 week.

I received my seatpost for example yesterday; 9 days after ordering.

I'd be more worried about how accurate the description of the seat post is!
