Shipping time on P-V deals from China to U.S?
  • I recently ordered the Cinematics Matte Box and Fotga follow focus from the P-V deals. I am hoping both will arrive by next week, as I have a major shoot that I'd like to use them on.

    Can anyone tell me, about how long it took either of these or similar orders to arrive in the U.S.A?

    Thanks!

  • If it's shipping via China post, expect to wait between 2 weeks and a month. If you paid a little extra for DHL, a week or less is very likely.

  • Paid extra for DHL, it only 2-4 days to USA. haha

  • Same here in Europe, DHL comes very fast.

  • Just wondering if you guys have to pay any customs taxes from China - USA. I ordererd a SmallHD DP4 was shipped via UPS to China, and only had to pay 12$ USD in customs tax, but when I ordered from Edelkrone who uses DHL I had to pay like 23% customs fees.

  • I ordered a H005 monitor on monitor day last week. I got an email stating:

    The monitor has been sent out by China. Tracking NO is RAxxxxxxxxxxxxCN. It takes 15-25 days to you.

    Googling "China post tracking" yields a number of sites, but, none can provide tracking info. The actual China Post site seems to be: http://intmail.183.com.cn/item/trace/itemTraceAction.do

    My shipment does not show up on any tracking site. I have emailed the vendor.

    Does anyone have a suggestion of a better site to try?

  • First, seller always play on safe side statine shipping time. And it is right.
