This is no longer the case. They have bypassed the postal system in my area entirely. My packages in a major US city are delivered via courier. Epacket type shipping you are referencing takes like 1-2 months while their privately arranged transport took 6 days from order to my door.
- kurthr 3y agoThey also avoid US customs fees by shipping to groups of customers in just less than $800 packets.
- theshrike79 3y agoYea AliExpress did this years and years ago. In theory the stuff they send should go through customs, but they practically DDoS the system by sending the 20 things you ordered in 20 packages, all marked below the price that would warrant a customs declaration - no matter the actual cost of the item. The customs over here would've had to hire a significant percentage of the whole population just to manage the packages... I've never had a single AliExpress package be held at customs and I've been ordering stuff from there before it was cool.
- IG_Semmelweiss 3y ago>>> while their privately arranged transport took 6 days from order to my door. Is there an uber-for-plane-luggage that I don't know about ?
- staticautomatic 3y agoBelieve it or not, FedEx. Just ask for a “tie-on tag”.
