You do of course realize that is shipping from China, right? Even if they over-nighted it (for $4?!) it is still going to take at least 3 days to clear customs. Expect it to arrive in about 3 weeks or you could always go get them from your local hobby shop.

One thing I ordered went via swiss post, meaning from HK to Zurich and spent a few weeks touring the Swiss countryside before making its way to me in Aus...

usd$3.99 spent on a taxi ride wont get you far elsewhere, not to mention airmail from HK to where ever you are!

Settle down.... Different country?! One day was a weekend. What days are their Easter holidays? What time did you order? Did it even make there Day 1 cut off? I'd be lucky to something from my LHS 20km away posted in 3 days. You'll get them well before 45 days, but NOT 3!

It's sounds more like you suck at reading. They have shipping times listed everywhere including a page before you place your order. They are in China so $3.99 to ship a set of wheels seems like a great deal to me, even if it takes 30 days. If you want it faster you gotta pay for it. Stop being cheap or go to your local hobby store and have them get a set for you.

Unless you pay for the UPS 3 day it can take a week just for them to ship your stuff. Once it leaves HK though, it gets to the US in like a day... Where it sits in US customs for nearly a week.

Once it gets to the US it's shipped via USPS, so even if they shipped it air mail from china it's going to take several days once it gets registered into the USPS system. I've had great luck with them, same with other chinese sellers on ebay. It takes a bit longer, but you have to READ what they tell you upfront about shipping times.

I ordered something from the same guys, lots of us have, it took only about 15-16 days even though it had said 45. I am not saying that it will be that fast, but I believe that 45 days is stated to cover any problems in shipping.

i ordered a charger april 6th, it made it to new york on the 8th and has been sitting in customs ever since.

yeah, I'm never ordering from hobby king again... I understand it's coming from china, but this is unacceptable. I ordered 2 lipo's on the 3rd. They shipped them on the 6th, and as of the 18th, they are in Zurich. WTF, they are sending them the wrong way around the world, and it shouldn't take 12 days to ship it only that far. Are they transporting my package via pack mule?

Takes a while to get up and over the alps! LMAO

My last order sat in HK for over a week then in one day arrived in NY, where it then sat around for a week+

The US Warehouse just got in an order of batteries. I don't think it's possible to beat 2 65-130c 6000mah hard case batteries for $90 shipped.

I usually just shop the US warehouse, since the shipping is more reliable. It's worth the extra $1 per item it might cost.
