Slow order processing from Aliexpress

<< < (3/4) > >>

t0m:
My take is that the tariff war was screwing things up. Some vendors started reshipping through third countries and it took a while to straighten out the various issues.

precaud:
Update: the two orders shipped 22 Feb still show as "Inbound in sorting center", where they have been since 25 Feb. i.e., they are sitting in an Aliexpress consolidation warehouse.

The one shipped 1 Mar arrived in USA 6 Mar, passed thru customs yesderday, has left LA and is on its way here.

This is remarkably different order procesing. These were all ordered with "AliExpress Standard Shipping".

chickenHeadKnob:
For China to US containers there is a record backlog occurring right now, apparently. Ships are anchored outside Long Beach waiting to unload.

precaud:
Interesting, thanks. That would also then explain why "Speedpak" shipments are moving at their normal speed. UPS handles them and they have their own transport and processing.

AntiProtonBoy:
Everything is slow via AliExpress, some take a month or two to arrive. I've bought quite a few things there, and everything arrived eventually. You just need to be patient.
