First shipping update: "February 22, 2017 , 7:21 pm Processed Through Facility TIANJIN EMS, CHINA" I was able to pull this info on 2/23 with the tracking # on ebay.
That was quick. Looks like it started moving in the system the same day you purchased. That's never the case for me. When I purchase from him it's always 4 or 5 days before there is movement. What city or area is your ship to address? I'm in Atlanta, GA USA.
Skippack, PA. Grinder arrived today. I did not open him up yet, but am definitely impressed it arrived in 8 days!
Nice. Actually 7 days because you purchased on 2/22. Is that the normal shipping time for your orders from him/China? Man, how is it that everyone gets their stuff from him in 10 days or less and for me it's 2 weeks? Apparently its the aditional 4 to 6 days of travel time from NY to GA. lol
Yes, right you are in 7 days. This is the first I have ordered from this seller. I did order from another Chinese seller a few months ago (labels for MP Wheeljack) and it took almost 1 month. I try to avoid Chinese sellers unless the feedback is impeccable. IDK, maybe I was just lucky this time.
I use Chinese sellers for about 90% of my TF purchases. I just use a handful that I know are trustworthy and get me my product in a timely manner. Baba is one of them. Well what do you know? I placed an order with baba on 3/1 and now today 3/2 I got the tracking number AND IT IS ACTIVE. Usually I have to wait 3-5 days for it to become active. Now this is the old baba I'm talking about. lol. I'll admit though, I did have to send him a separate message right after I placed my order reminding him to please ship my order right away. Maybe that was the extra push that helped.
Ordered FT grinder from him on 03/05 and package was dispatched from China on 03/08. So far so good. When I check on USPS.com, it shows the following service. Consider Grinder is huge, I know I am too nervous but is it something I need to worry about? Postal Product: First-Class Package International Service Features: Small Packet
For me it's right always right at 2 weeks. Don't worry you're good. I ordered Sever X on 2/17 and it arrived 3/4. Got blue Soar X scheduled to arrive this weekend.
All my stuff from him says "Small Packet" regardless of the actual size and I've been buying from him for well over a year. No worries.
Update on my purchase: the packing was underwhelming. grinder did have a layer of thin bubblewrap and the box was a makeshift of cardboard. There were a few areas where I could see the bubblewrap between the outer shipping "box". The right front corner of grinder's box has a small dent. Probably manufacturer shipping. I consider this a win. Great figure and the box displays great on the shelf next to my other FT boxes. I left + feedback since it only took a week to arrive and the figure and contents are without problems. .
Hi everybody! It took several weeks but finally the tracking info is working since last week. Seems the item finally arrived to my country the day before yesterday.
Nice. What part of the country are you in? I agree the packing isn't elegant with styrofoam like from tf-direct or other Ebay sellers but it gets the job done. Idc since its going in the trash anyway.
I'm in Skippack, PA (outside Philly). True, but it left the contents at risk. I sell/trade, so it is convenient to re-use the box when I can. Here are a few pictures
Yep that's how my shipping box looked like for my Sever X. Luckily I don't recall getting bent corners like that. I hear you on not being able to re-use the shipping box.
My Soar X arrived today. Same style of shipping box packaging. This time I decided to open the shipping box in such a way that the box can be re-used. Fortunately there was no there was damage done to the actual item box. The corners are all fine.
