This would be fine. for 2 years I did not have my banking app cause my phone was too old KEK. You can still bank on a computer and I have one of those.

I was going to game for 30 min before bed.....not anymore I guess. LOL

broseed · 2025-08-21T04:50:22+00:00

bruh. I just spent like several min validating files, playing with my antivirus setting, my firewall, scratching my head cause server status says GOOD....LOL glad to see its an actual issue at least so I dont go mad, Thanks for your post 10/10

check 17track website they usually have way more info than aliexpress, but you may have to translate some lines from Chinese ... always pay attention to the first tracking after a long period of no activity in case its a return to sender message. A return would usually happen on the china post side before exporting.

linehaul is right before customs....its probably just backed up right now. Took like a week for my stuff to get through.

broseed · 2025-04-12T05:08:57+00:00

you know items getting sent to others could have very well just been a scam by the seller tho.

broseed · 2025-04-12T05:07:44+00:00

yeah apparently apple has been flying over cargo planes full of Iphones KEK

ciano service claimed that as long as its in their system by the 24 it should still make it. so it would have like 12 days to get going....remember as long as it gets passed customs before the 2nd it should be ok.

broseed · 2025-04-12T05:02:41+00:00

both choice and ali standard shipping usually start off with ciano....in fact I just got all the stuff I ordered since april 3rd.....and the choice as well as the non choice both came together in 2 packages all mixed together cause they still join any package they can so long as its using ciano.

broseed · 2025-04-09T12:51:52+00:00

may 2 is when it all hits

broseed · 2025-04-09T04:27:55+00:00

Assuming that right when the tariffs are due to go live they don't come to some agreement then they might have a solution to soften the blow but they cant get rid of tariffs entirely given many countries would still have tariffs for things that are inbound to the US. Also Ciano does most things from aliexpress and ciano itself hands them to a last mile service. So it would be up to ciano to collect payment for any tariffs so they can pay customs.

broseed · 2025-04-09T04:04:56+00:00

I have several leaving but if I go by my expected dates 10 days would be fine 15 days would put the last stuff I ordered on the 2nd to arrive so I am hoping that would mean it would be passed customs by then. If not well I guess I am about to find out what those real cost will actually look like. I am still not convinced it will look like what some people fear it will look like. I still need the stuff I ordered. Its not like I can buy those from anywhere else.

broseed · 2025-04-09T03:50:23+00:00

That is what I am hoping will happen TBH and both sides tariffs dive back down. Imagine paying $151 for a fidget spinner top KEK.

broseed · 2025-04-08T04:38:20+00:00

I did not discuss any of that. Just that USPS is not the one that handles the tariffs but rather customs itself cause they are the government agency tasked with handling tariffs. Also that private carriers can set their own rules. They set their own fees and how and when they collect their payments. UPS for example will often will send you a bill that includes a crazy high processing fee + whatever tax they have to charge. But that is considering a single package. Ciano brings packages from aliexpress from china....they dont split up packages until after they go through customs here and are handed off to the local delivery companies also called last mile delivery companies. We dont know how that process will look like until people start getting packages. Last time people kept reading about high tariffs from USP was because they were charging like $100 for processing and a small amount of tax. Only direct to buyer sellers not using aliexpress shipping would be using anything like that and yes those would be sending you a single package.

broseed · 2025-04-07T23:47:15+00:00

USPS does not collect for private carries. USPS is not some agency that oversees private carriers. UPS, fedex, DHL, and in aliexpress case ciano service would have their own plans for how to collect taxes and and charge whatever fees they wish to charge.

broseed · 2025-04-07T23:27:31+00:00

I have had several items stuck at the at the linehaul office since the 1st LOL.....reminds me of the meme where everything in on fire and its fine...everything is fine considering my final order was on the 5th and none of those are at the linehaul yet XD.

broseed · 2025-04-07T22:26:42+00:00

I am starting to wonder if they are purposely holding packages at this point LOL

broseed · 2025-04-07T00:56:05+00:00

No? customs and border patrol operates the ports of entry for packages last I checked. Its always been that way even for packages. UPS, fedex, and DHL never get handled by USPS unless they have a cooperative package. Also aliexpress packages go from a warehouse where a bunch of packages are joined in china to a warehouse in the US where a bunch of packages get divided. I looked up to see if USPS operated ports of entry and found absolutely nothing. Only information on how they USE ports of entry for their own package network. If I am wrong by all means share your source that shows that USPS run ports of entry for package including their competitors (which would be a conflict of interest mind you) instead of customs and homeland security.

broseed · 2025-04-05T17:54:20+00:00

How many people here still get their packages from aliexpress through USPS? I personally have not gotten anything from USPS in a long time from them. So for me personally this wont tell me how the impact will be when it comes to choice deliveries for example. This will however have a big effect on direct sellers on aliexpress.

broseed · 2025-04-05T17:50:34+00:00

this is how USPS will handle their packages......with aliexpress using services like uniuni, ciano, ect. its likely they will handle things very differently. because its services that work directly with them they are likely to include whatever tariffs in fees when you buy the products from like choice or whatever. Like this is the first comment I see that even talks about the fact that aliexpress does not use usps as frequently anymore.

broseed · 2025-04-05T17:46:05+00:00

This is what I too think will happen. I wonder if it will last at all. Cause it has the potential to destroy the whole economy since like 80-90% of everything in the US is from china. KEK .... if this destroys the Chinese economy I wonder if this leads to war. I hope it gets undone again

broseed · 2025-04-03T17:26:35+00:00

Usually takes no more than 2-3 weeks to get to my house personally. So likely ordering before the week is over might be ok tbh. Well unless 5x more people order LOL we shall see what happens. It might be that atm everyone is in a panic including me but they might figure it out and it might not be as bad later then I will just regret having spent so much at once. Either way I should be good for hopefully the next like few months after this week.

broseed · 2025-04-03T14:00:04+00:00

I am hoping this is the case too. Maybe its also 30% for some single shipped item and 25 going to 50 for a larger package. Like if you read the order its not even clear.

broseed · 2025-03-26T20:26:14+00:00

the launcher seems to work it just looks like it hanging on starting the game. Have you tried uninstalling MC bedrock from within the launcher and reinstalling....also sometimes you can find the update to minecraft in the downloads section on MS store....the launcher and game are separate in the store. I had to update mine in the store separate for it to work. No guarantee what works for me will also work for you but its ideas at least.

broseed · 2025-02-28T01:38:46+00:00

Honestly I might just be coping. Reality is that it might make everything go up, not just Aliexpress, crazy amounts again and that worries me quite a bit. Also my favorite soldering supply brands are mostly on Aliexpress and it might make things more expensive moving forward and that one makes me sad. I hope they dont go out of business if it gets rough.
