      I ordered some JST connectors that were not in stock and it took weeks. However, I had the mindset that it would and it did not bother me. All other orders using EMS we here in one week, these were some BL motors and 50 amp controllers.

        I ordered 4 5000mah lipos yesterday and received shipping confirmation last night. Items are on the way via UPS 3 day for about 10 more than the cheapest shipping.

        If I get them by Tuesday it will be money well spent too me.

          most of my ems orders have been quick, until the recent fiasco shipping lipos.

          fastest was order thursday and got the order monday arvo at work about 3 months back.

          last order was the longest at about 10 days.
          Interesting...I ordered a Turnigy 180 amp marine esc that showed no stock(-2) and I thought that it may take about 2 months.....it was shipped the next day....I suppose they knew it was the asshole Scotsman and ship it as I do not want him on the phone telling me what a stellar company I have

              What in 2 days?

              What stuff is shipping from the US warehouse? Is it marked US warehouse and marked up in price like the DE(dutch right?) warehouse?

                  my batteries left Hong Kong yesterday, the same day I ordered them. UPS tracking shows them in Ontario CA and I should have them tomorrow or Monday.

                  Not too bad

                          I ordered two 2S 5K lipo's, batt straps & some XT60's yesterday and they have been posted today.

                          The email send it may take up to 45 days for delivery, but I've always had fast delivery usually about 7-10 days.

                          Like whats been said before the issue isn't usually (not in my case anyway) HK its the various postal services cracking down on lipo's.

                          Cheers

                            HK SUCKS!!!!!!!!! I just got done talking to them they screwed up my package so bad the post office cant read the address and they are returning it. HK says I have to pay for shipping again if I want the package how is this my fault? I will NEVER buy from HK again.
