dhgate shipping

What are the current recommendations? I've seen some say free shipping is fine, others only use UPS or DHL. I want to buy a couple glass pieces and want to be sure I'm getting all the best info beforehand. Thanks!

I use standard shipping average is two to four weeks to montana.
I would not pay extra and of the dozens of orders I have made only one came broken which was easily fixed with a picture and email to the seller.
I love dhgate for glass pieces that place has saved me thousands and I have this forum to thank for finding it.

I always do free. Fastest I have gotten something was like 13 days slowest like 5 weeks. Just assume its gonna take 30 days and try your best to forget about it, and if it comes sooner great!

If you choose paid options you may receive your order faster, but I heard that DHL/UPS carriers have an interest in the fact that your parcel gets intercepted at customs. They get paid accordingly if the parcel gets valued more than the seller declared.

I recently ordered some glass for a friend, all from Stevenlmz79. I contacted them before submitting the order and expressed desire to have UPS shipping on all items (my friend's request). They asked me to submit the order, selecting expedited shipping on each item, but not to pay. It took some time for me to figure out how to order from DHGate without paying, there is an option to pay via DHGate and that made the order go through.

Stevenlmz79 then updated the invoice total with a new adjusted cost for UPS shipping, which I didn't have to pay until after items were received. Was expensive, like $60 for 4 items, but Stevenlmz79 had decreased the shipping cost by half and I had the items in 3 business days.

Every time I order from DHGate I try to order multiple items from the same seller. If you contact the seller before buying you can make shipping arrangements for purchases made through DHGate.

I always use the e-packet option. My last order (an FC-710 diffusion pump from seller Ebizcn) worth 20 bucks came with free e-packet shipping... it took about 2 weeks.

Thanks for the replies. It looks like standard free shipping and patience is the way to go.

I “think” I placed an order last night , I was pretty medicated. Must have checked out as a guest as I have no account with them. I have not receive an email and my credit card has not been charged yet. Is this normal or is this just a figment of my imagination that I placed the order, lol.

I’d give a look at my inbox for a confirmation email from them. Without that confirmation, no order should have been made.

If you go to checkout but don't finalize the order, as in complete the payment, it will still be in your account to finish paying for later although it not in the cart now. I had a couple instances at first where I thought it went through but I never actually paid and it created some confusion for me. You can also do this to allow the seller to adjust the price for you if you've previously arranged for them to do so.

Thanks. I didn’t have an account last night and Thought I checked out as a guest. I remember typing in my security code for my credit card. I just went through the checkout process again and definitely do not remember filling all that out, lol. I guess I remember typing in my security code from an unrelated purchase early in the day when I was les relaxed, lol. Sorry guys

I thought I ordered a 30cm stereo matrix but now I’m thinking of getting the Ion copy instead.

I have both the stereo matrix and the sidecar, I like to change it up. The stereo is becoming my favorite though. For my E-nano the sidecar is just a tad too little filtration to cool the hot vapor. With a less powerful vape its perfect. You can't go wrong with either for the price on dhgate.
