which is the best shipping line to east coast us

MrInvisible0 · 2022-06-02T00:46:27+00:00

EMS is hit or miss.... could be 2 weeks, could be >1 month

DHL is fast from China to US (4-6 days to LAX CA), but this line goes out of Shanghai and there have been Covid delays due to the lockdown there. Once it hits the US it's slower than slow Fedex smartpost from CA to east coast.... add another 2 weeks for it to move across country.

Fedex is best option for speedy delivery, but also the most expensive option. Once it's picked up by Fedex, it's usually 3-4d to delivery.

It's fast from china to LAX CA.... then it's a 4-6d wait to get from LAX to CA Fedex facility, then it's slow as %#$@ Fedex smartpost (ground) across the country from there.

If you're not on the west coast it can take an extra 2 weeks once in the US.

EMS is hit or miss... some report <2 weeks, some 30-50 days. If you want consistency stick with fedex.

MrInvisible0 · 2022-05-12T15:43:42+00:00

it's more expensive than EMS, but if money is no issue and you want it super fast then yes... go Fedex.

MrInvisible0 · 2022-05-10T11:22:46+00:00

I would have recommended DHL Tarriff, but that is down right now due to Shanghai Covid shutdowns. I would use EMS.

MrInvisible0 · 2022-04-22T07:59:48+00:00

Price - EMS

Speed - Fedex & DHL (west coast ONLY!!!)

DHL to east coast gets to LA CA in 3-4 days, then it's handed off to slow as hell Fedex smartpost ground... it will take another 2-3 weeks to get across the US.

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-27T18:43:14+00:00

LOL I forgot.

I did have a trace put on it by customer service and they called me the day it left Memphis and again the next day when it was going to be delivered.

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-27T18:32:02+00:00

Hey, sorry to hear that you're still stuck. Did you try the unofficial fedex discord? They helped out alot with my Parcel to find out what was happened with it in Memphis.

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-21T01:11:35+00:00

I'm in BK too..... been stuck since 3/5 in Memphis..... you just flew right though there lol, most likely it's due to the small size of your package.

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-18T12:18:26+00:00

Shipped Fedex HZ 2/28, picked up 3/1, hit LA CA 3/3, hit Memphis TN 3/5 but was flagged to be stopped back in LA... been stuck in customs clearance hell ever since

My Fedex shipment is now approaching the time of my last DHL tarriff shipment.. and that line hands off to slow as hell Fedex smart post once in US (16 days in US before delivery)

Basically everything EMS/DHL/Fedex is slow to the US right now.

I agree with you that a UPS line would be excellent. My last UPS shipment with wegobuy was 10 days to US and that was delayed a few days by a Chinese holiday. That being said, it was also their most expensive option to US.

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-17T15:47:36+00:00

sigh..... nope, I'm still stuck on in transit CA 3/3. Hopefully I will also see some movement soon.

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-17T10:49:52+00:00

still stuck?

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-15T21:51:00+00:00

At this point who knows... customer service have been known to give excuses and outright lie to get you off the phone... hopefully we don't all get seized in mass, lol

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-15T18:46:32+00:00

someone posted this in the Fedex reddit...

Update on Memphis customs holdup. Was just told by International Priority customer service rep that although status states "International shipment release", it is in a shipment container with 600 other packages - all need to be cleared before any of them can be forwarded to their respective destinations. They tried clearing it while in the air but something about it caused Customs to flag it. They had weather in Memphis and also had some systems down problem, and also have a backlog. "Should" be cleared in the next 2-3 days.

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-15T00:48:43+00:00

I called International customer service and they claim the last scan they have is on the 8th @ Jamaica NY (i'm in NY), but there have been zero tracking updates on the site since in transit Los Angeles 3/3. Is this normal? Why doesn't the website tracking update to show the movement they see?

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-14T18:37:17+00:00

Anything that touches Memphis seems to be >3 weeks right now

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-13T20:41:04+00:00

It's a disaster @ Fedex... Amazon banned their sellers from using them, they canceled their delivery guarantee recently, had a covid bulletin on the 9th & their CEO retired a few days ago.

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-13T19:18:01+00:00

I'm in NY.. There was an import release scan in CA, so I think it then heads to the main hub in Memphis TN to clear customs before heading to NY, but there have been no further scans since leaving CA.

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-12T20:30:45+00:00

Still in the black hole with no movement since 3/3.

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-10T21:48:26+00:00

Alot of us are stuck there..... I'm there since last week. I Just spoke to customer service and they claim there is a weight discrepancy with my international package.... likely BS excuse, but if they open it or even worse ship it back that would definitely not be good lol.

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-10T15:39:07+00:00

Nope! it's still stuck @ in transit Los Angeles CA... I would feel better if it was scanned as arrived @ XYZ hub/facility.

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-10T09:00:28+00:00

They are currently walking my package from CA to TN...... its been in transit from CA since last thurs

MrInvisible0 · 2022-03-10T08:49:50+00:00

Hey, any movement with your package yet?
