Why does shipping from China take so long?
Nephasth:
Because the sort facility in Los Angeles ---smurfing--- sucks!

I was actually going to give you a real reason lol. Common ship shipping is 2-8 weeks depending on where in china.

It's not just L.A. I bought a Carbon Fiber Vinyl Sheet on ebay (Paid for it a month ago today) and still hasn't gotten here. This is what I got when I looked up the tracking number:

Plus I live in NJ so I don't know what's going on. I don't think I'm getting my package, ever.

We'll see if my order from India gets through any faster.
It's only been processed once so far. :D

That's the price you pay if you want it cheap.
I quit ordering <$5 ebay stuff from China because the last few required a signature upon delivery.
It's just not worth it to have to drive downtown to the post office and stand in line to sign for it.

Hrmmm...I was thinking about buying some of that stuff for a project that needs to be done in June. Thanks for the heads up on that. I might have to find a new seller. My wife had to wait like 3 months for a Hello Kitty clock from China that she was gonna give to our niece. That stuff just sucks.
But I agree shipping can go crazy even if it doesn't go overseas. I had sent out an encoder to a member here in Canada. It took a whole month to get to him. I felt bad, but he was a really a good sport about it. People here are awesome. 8)
