Gearbest

[Wendee]

Anybody pay extra for the faster shipping? I was wondering if the items really arrive in 7-10 business days. I just ordered a convoy L6 and paid extra for the shipping.

I'll pay extra for a tracking number and insurance but not for the shipping itself. My last order from Gearbest (Convoy L6 and other items) were delivered by DHL and arrived in 2 days. Yes, two days from China! I posted about it in a different thread. I couldn't believe it. I know I got free shipping because I never pay for shipping. My order was over $100.00, maybe that's why it was sent DHL for free? I have no idea. Small issue though, at my door DHL charged me Canadian taxes plus an $11.00 "processing fee" (paid to DHL, not GearBest). So, it ended up costing me an extra $25.00 (Canadian $$). I certainly appreciate getting my package so fast but I'm going to make sure that nothing is sent via DHL again (unless for some reason I need something super fast and I'm willing to pay at my door).

My last Gearbest order (a Xiaomi speaker) was shipped the same day I ordered it, and I received it in the UK 9 days later. I didn't pay extra for shipping or insurance. Pretty impressive, I thought.

Wow, 2 days from China, amazing. I paid @ $4.50 extra for shipping (dhl). I hope I don't get charged extra upon receipt of light, that would be crazy.

I did because DHL shipping on my L6 was like an extra $1.40 vs. the slow shipping.

Did you just order it?

That's pretty good for not paying any extra.

Hi, I am from Singapore and I have bought 2 mobile phones with no difficulties (but bought it with registered shipping) have bought my Nitecore and Manker lights from them too (no registered shipping), have had a hiccup with an order but no problems with customer service.

A few weeks ago.

I got my GearBest order yesterday...9/29/16 and I ordered on 9/14/16, so 15 days from 'submit' to mailbox.

The four Liitokala chargers and Convoy S2+ light were soft packed, but arrived in good order. The 100 and 202 that I've tested already, work fine, as well as the light. I still have a 100 and 202 charger to fiddle with.

I'm a happy camper and would do business with GB again, based on how smoothly and well valued this deal went.

Thanks.

Ordered a L6 on 9/29, only paid @ $4.50 for faster shipping and tracking is showing delivery tomorrow 10/3! China to Wisconsin that quick... Amazing!

I guess GearBest has some proprietary wisdom of doing e-selling properly
