Review by artdeco737 about USPS package LW4********CN

Dispatched Jan 2, left China Jan 3, arrived in MD, USA Jan 11, received in mailbox in WV, USA Jan 14. So this e-packet took 12 days to ship, which is quick and how e-packet shipping used to be. Before Sept 2019, e-packet took 12-14 days. Now it can take over 30 days. It all seems to depend on the local chinese logistics partner used by the shipper. As mentioned in another review, no one at the shipping companies reads these. They are more for other customers researching their own shipments. I do find this site to be the best tracker with more detailed info, the ability to save a list of packages & review (although review section needs overhaul).

Order dispatched Dec 25, received in WV, USA Jan 21 with 6 other AliExpress orders, mostly shipped china post. I think USPS holds a large portion of small mail from china until it reaches a certain weight or amount and then releases it all at once. That's really the only way to explain how I can receive mail from 4 different chinese shipment methods anywhere from 13-40 days later and usually all at once after weeks of nothing. Guess I should be glad it arrives at all, though.

13 days is quick and how I remember both e-packet and AliExpress Standard shipping last year up until September 2019, when all methods starting taking a week or two longer. It apparently depends on the logistics shipping partners used by the seller as well as which waypoints it goes through. I received two e-packets on Monday. The other one took 37 days, 26 of those days just sitting somewhere between being accepted by the exporting airline & being scanned in as arriving in the USA. I'm anxious to see how the CNY extension/ Coronavirus will affect shipping in the coming month.
