Change Has Come To Priceangels

[Tech_Junkie]

Holidays, plus the bomb scare from China have the whole system backed up. I ordered from DX last month and it took 32 days instead of the usual 20. Its effecting everyone.

 

[Coherent Light]

My DX order has been at Packaging for a week. WTH are They growing the trees to make the shipping box. Oh well it'll ship when it ships.

be happy you guys get it cheap trying buying that with it made in the usa, again in you want fast go dhl.
Another topic to make shipping better and your going to place an order do a small GB so the DHL shipping is split between 3-4 people then its not bad and you get to have it in a week

 

[Tech_Junkie]

I'm not complaining. I'd wait a month to save $100.

 

[Coherent Light]

Having to wait a while is worth it with the amount of money being saved. When ever I need something right NOW I bite the bullet and order from within the USA.

I just ordered a 79029, want to give it a try ..... just hope that the shipping crew of Priceangels knows that, for Italy, the declared value must be less than 22 Euro, and the description must not mention "laser" in any way, for avoid customs problems

I'm in a Paypal dispute right now with price angels unfortunately. I ordered the 10 trustfire hosts on nov 25th with EMS shipping, and they never made it out of china. My tracking hasn't updated since Dec 3rd but they seems to think it's going to just show up magically.
USPS - Track & Confirm

They told me they filed an "official notice" with hong kong post over the lost package. If i think it's lost, and they think its lost, then i think it's time for a refund......

I went to the Post Office and they only told me what the tracking page already shows. They were unable to help at all. Could you please inform John of this problem? I ordered them with EMS shipping so that I would have them by now.

It has been 16 days now since the package was shipped. From what I can tell, the package never left China. I think it's getting time to consider the possibility of a refund.

yes that's correct. Which wouldn't matter since it was never delivered anywhere at all.

Hello matthew ohrenberg,
Sorry for the trouble.
we have filled in an offical request about this parcel to hongkong post, and will get back to you as soon as we get reply.

It seems that your package was sent by hongkong post, it is often slower than EMS which take 3 days only. But Hongkong post will often takes 14 working days or even more. So please don't worry, and be patient. If the package lost, I will be responsible for it.

Sorry for the problem.

Yes, we often have some trouble in the order from your country. But have you told my worker "the declared value must be less than 22 Euro, and the description must not mention "laser" in any way"?

I am worried about the order now.

I only added a message from the Paypal payment link (where it say "message for the seller") about this, but i don't know if you may have got it or not, cause is not the first time that, making payments through paypal pages, these messages does not become delivered to the sellers.

In any case, i don't consider any guilty from your part or from your workers, about this, cause was my fault to have not asked it before specifically, so no problems (is for this reason that i've said "i hope" that they already know these points ..... cause i'm not sure if they may have get the paypal message or not )

we have shipped some package to italy, and wish my worker have done as they did before. But I can't assure you it.
If you receive it or not receive it after weeks, please tell me.

Thanks, i will let you know ..... anyway, i guess this take time ..... knowing my postal system, i think it can need 2 or 3 weeks if they work fast, and also last things i've buyed from your site (not lasers), took 2 weeks and half for reach my place ..... our customs offices get fun to delay all the packages from east countries without any reasons, usually.

2weeks and a half is nomal for HongKong post, some of our packages even take 2 months, but I don't know why.

2weeks and a half is nomal for HongKong post, some of our packages even take 2 months, but I don't know why.

I can't speak for other countries, but i know why this happens for Italy .....

First, we have one of the worse postal system of all the world ..... and second, customs offices do this intentionally for discourage peoples from buy items from outside countries, especially from East / HK zones .....

They know that we can buy items cheap from them, so "unofficially", they delay anything at least 2 weeks, sometimes more, without a valid reason (the worse delay that i've got is a tracked package from HK that needed 6 days from HK to Italian custom office, and 59 days for do the remaining 150Km, and it was also not opened for inspection)

Also, half of the packages that comes from East countries get opened and inspected from them, and most of the times, when this happens, they acts this way: if it's not tracked, half of the times it "get lost in transit", where instead, if it's tracked, they wait 2 months, then send you a letter that say you: "we have opened the pachage and judged that the declared value is too low, please say us how much the seller have declared as value, and send us all the documents that proof that you have paid that value, otherwise we apply custom taxes and fees on the value that we judge more consistent (usually 2 or 3 times the real value), or we return the package to the seller" .... note that they don't say you what the seller have declared, so you cannot know this.

And there's nothing that you can do, when they "lost" something, or delay it, or break it ..... you here don't have any right, nor you can ask for refunds or for damages (i once received a package that was totally shredded ..... they just placed the pieces in a bigger envelope with a letter that say "it had an accident, we're sorry", and no other).

I paid the extra money to have it sent EMS......

it updated this morning as being in chicago, so i'm happy now (even though it took it a month instead of 3-4 days)

i still plan to order from PriceAngels in the future. If it was shipped regular air mail, hopefully it will get shipped EMS next time since i'm paying extra for that service.

if it was because chinese mail is backed up, then there is nothing we can do but wait...and it's nobodies fault...
at least until south korea starts producing more products

Good deal to see there on the way. Are they this host right here that i have in this thread.?
http://laserpointerforums.com/f52/p...ocalprice-com-pics-vids-59042.html#post837480 If so that awesome and iam going to pick one up from you. I really like this host.

I would think that because of this delay that they should refund you the

EMS Shipping that you paid. It would be nice of them to do this.

Cough Cough John.
