 Shocked

I am sorry to interfere but AFA my experience is concerned, It usually takes more than 14 days average with Registered Air Mail atleast for me. You are considered lucky if you receive a parcel shipped through airmail in less than 14 days. And That is why EMS costs more. Just think, Why would you pay more the cost than Airmail if Airmail can get your parcel delivered mostly in two weeks. Roll Eyes

Even more than one and a half month gone this time and still waiting for my last parcel to arrive. And that reminds me a great "saying" here in Indian R/C community...  Roll Eyes

"Patience" is the key."

Also..."Experience is what the life has taught you" and everything written above is just what I learnt.

Please read this forum carefully before ordering. Opinions may subject to vary.  Grin

Hey Buddy! I didn't wanted to pull you out of the crowd. After all, That was just your attempt to help somebody out. and then It was just my wish to share experience. So, newcomers reading our discussion would prefer to read the forum and understand things themselves, to decide what & how they want to do....

Hey But if it felt wrong to you, My apologies  Bow....

Thanks.
Cheers.

Hello ,

I want to import the HK 450 V2 Heli kit . It is quite cheap at 30 usd . But the problem is , hobbyking ships it through EMS . Has anyone imported these kits through EMS before ? Do the customs people give trouble ?  I usually prefer registered airmail.


Any advice and help will be appreciated


Thanks

Oh k so i have placed order with HK on 21st March shipping method was Air Parcel Registered, order was shipped on 24th March and i got it today i.e. 29th March. Which is like faster than EMS cos my prev order was shipped using EMS which took 2 weeks.

But again i guess this time varies between 10-14 days.

PM sent,

this is flow that i think what is followed.
Parcel once is sent from HK by air to India, it arrives next day.
It stays a day or 2 at airport, then goes for delivery.

So 1 day in air, 2 days at airport and 4 days max for, airport to home.
so its like 7 days max and 4 days min.

I ordered an Engine Starter of 19$ and a 6 cell battery from HK.

This innocent parcel was detained by customs  Bang Head ...  Wot was the crime can any one explain? it has no radio, no receiver, transmitter etc etc.  Bang Head which may raise the eyebrows of THE CUSTOMS dept.

The manner in which HobbyKing sends packages leaves any customs to detain them. They don't put proper invoice, hardly any credible origin address etc. Indian custom holding it is not anything to panic about. There was a time when all my parcels used to get stuck and I had to go to the PAD.

Simply take a printout of the Invoice and write a letter to Superintendent of PAD, describing what is the use if the items and their prices and go in person. I am pretty much sure that they have held/detained it due to lack of 'proper' invoice.
