Title: how long does Banggood take to UK for freepost
Post by: rob12770 on Sunday,August 23, 2015, 11:21:20
Hi, so i made a booboo with Banggood  :(
I have only ordered twice from them before so im kinda new to them,

I forgot to use premium post  ( whatever its called ) and they have dispatched using the default free postage with No tracking  :hmm:
I get this feeling this might take a Very long time  :waiting:
do you guys have any clue roughly when it should come  from china  ?

PS  i Did contact Banggood  to try to change it but it was too late.
cheers rob

In my experience 10days minimum, normally 18 days ish more normal but upto 30 days.
Sorry can';t be more accurate.

I always use the free post and it';s not as long as you think, usually 10 days for me.

Same as the others on here - around 10 days, but it can sometimes take a bit longer.  The Premium Post is very good, usually within a working week.

The Bangood UK warehouse is brilliant, if not lacking a bit of stock variety.  They wipe the floor with HobbyKing on delivery times, especially as it is included in the price (unless you pay for even faster).  Usually within 24-48 hours of order!

164 orders. all free postage.

only 2 ever didn';t turn up - moaned after a month , and they dispatched replacements.

usually 10-30 days. most towards the 10 days.

It';s funny, but I have kinda got used to it - I order, then by the time it arrives its a kinda pleasant surprise.

Just had aquick scroll through my Bangood orders , yep 10 -15 working days for most .EU warehouse 3-4 days . And an extra £2 or so on a frame from china order 9/8/15 arrived 15/8/15 .
It';s just returns on faulty goods can become a bit of a saga of vids pics and emails .
But saying that all faulty stuff and ****** ups have been sorted eventually .

And to be even clearer still, it is warehoused in the UK, hence the ability to deliver in a couple of days. ;)  Of course, pretty much all their stock originates from China.

i don';t believe so.. it depends which warehouse you choose, the items i wanted were in China warehouse Not UK.

It takes between 1 and 3 weeks for Banggood stuff to arrive from the China warehouse.
I';ve placed about 25 such orders...  I think only 1 order every took longer than 3 weeks.  Some items arrived in 1 week only.  I would say 15 days is average.

What I do is, when I get frustrated because my stuff didn';t arrive yet, I placate myself by placing more Banggood orders. :D
It';s quite fun having tons of different orders, all for tiny bits and pieces, all free shipping...  you come down in the morning and there';s quite often treasure from the postman waiting.. :D

Ah, yes, that is absolutely correct.  The UK warehouse is not as broadly stocked as is the main China warehouse.  If you choose an item from the UK warehouse it comes from whatever it is that amounts to a warehouse of BG stock located with in the UK though. 

Other than paying a huge amount for one of the international couriers it would not be possible for BG to get their goods to your delivery address within 48-72 hours as they do when ordering from their UK warehouse.

So, for example, this item is from the UK warehouse and is sent to you by UK Post Office mail --> http://eu.banggood.com/Wholesale-Warehouse-DYS-BE1806-2300KV-Brushless-Motor-Black-Edition-for-Multicopters-wp-Uk-946416.html (http://eu.banggood.com/Wholesale-Warehouse-DYS-BE1806-2300KV-Brushless-Motor-Black-Edition-for-Multicopters-wp-Uk-946416.html)


And this same item is from their "home" website, where the default option is the Chinese warehouse and with a selectable option of the EU warehouse (which is the UK in fact) --> http://www.banggood.com/DYS-BE1806-2300KV-Brushless-Motor-Black-Edition-for-Multicopters-p-946416.html (http://www.banggood.com/DYS-BE1806-2300KV-Brushless-Motor-Black-Edition-for-Multicopters-p-946416.html)

All my stuff has now arrived, delivery was 2-3 weeks.
I have been waiting for the full 30 days but the package was clearing in the UK for a week of that!
