Same for me for all my sellers I bought who lives in China.. I really didn’t think the coronavirus has caused such delays even now and it stinks for both ends! :frown:
Fortunately it seems like delivery times has started to slowly become back to normal.

My black bangle finally arrived today! YAY!! Pictures tomorrow!

What I find really weird is even packages from FedEx which came from California are still routed through Guangzhou! Really??

And on Sunday, I ordered a pendant from Singapore and the shipper was UPS. By right, all the package has to do is travel north into neighbouring Malaysia. Imagine my shock when it was routed from Singapore to Shenzhen before coming to Malaysia! I got it yesterday, fast shipping, but why that route??

How ironic! I got my black bear from Guangzhou too! Also that’s weird for the rerouting of Cali to Guangzhou too, unless there was a middleman behind it or something?
Now to wait for my next 9 jade pieces to come within a week or 3. Hope they arrive safely!

Yeah I had one seller specifically who had to do alot of refunds for the buyers who didn’t want to wait a long time for shipment to start within 3 weeks or more. Also upsetting cause when it comes to tragic events from foreign countries, it brings xenophobia which is one of those things that disgusts me in all sense. I really hope people in China truly can recover from it.

The route to Guangzhou has always been there for FedEx - just thought that they should have done some re-routing.

Hope the rest of your goodies arrive safely and soon!
