Has anyone bought anything from Ali express?

I wouldn't usually but DS has a very specific interest that doesn't have much merch available in UK.

I thought it wouldn't arrive in time but I got an email saying its arrived in the country 3 days ago but since then nothing. The Royal Mail tracking just says shipped Dec 1st by seller.

And the a lie press tracking just says in UK.

So frustrating that it shipped over so fast and has been sat in England for days with no update or movement.

Any ideas how long it takes once on UK soil?

Ordered from
Ali express tons of times. Usually around a week or so.

Not long, a few days as it has to clear customs, get to RM depot then sorted for delivery. You'll no doubt have it in a couple of days

I’ve ordered a lot from there in the past, but not during covid times. That plus Christmas means it’s probably slower than usual. I like Ali express. I’ve bought some really unusual things for my house from there.

I've ordered loads in the past and it's always a bit random how long it takes to arrive.

Thanks, that gives me a little hopeful!
