Ordered from fasttech a month ago.

They shipped promptly...
Then it got stuck at HK post.

Or so everything seems.

It takes a bit of time when transiting the seas on board a ship- more if there are other ports of call scheduled or encountering bad weather or mechanical/personnel issues.

I ordered from DX once and it took roughly a month to get my order. Then I won a light from them and it showed up about a week quicker than that.

Thanks.

Just amazon's one that's local-ish. Will be delivered before next night ride.

Saw a (dead) deer go under a car at about 50-55 on this morning's commute....
For some reason getting my lights improved has increased in priority.

Besides at these prices a spare is a good thing. Especially with my Daughter and SO riding...

China Post has been miserable lately. I've had a couple of packages take 7 weeks to arrive. In both cases I got refunds from the eBay vendor, then when they actually showed up had to go back and pay for them again.

Hong Kong post is generally better. Sometimes stuff from China gets here fast too, just seems to depend on the vendor. Perhaps vendors in different parts of the country go through different customs ports, I don't know.

Recently received one from China (Not HK). I figured it to be a dice roll on delivery time. Took about a week.
