As far as I remember, I chose registered parcel with tracking information. It was Priority mail (UK express). Nothing fancy, one of the cheapest. However, it didn't say anything about the UK carrier. It was only when the shipping mail was sent.
Whereas Fasttech delivered me thru RM. Nine days. *sigh*
yeah, I know .... you know now though.
You could be forgiven for thinking paying for a priority shipping method would, by very definition mean priority delivery, so yes, I think from now on I will avoid paying for a priority service and expect it to arrive quicker as a result. It sounds borderline absurd for thinking along those lines but Yodel explains it all in my opinion.
Honestly it is absurd, you are paying extra for a worse (in my experience) service.
You mean choosing *unregistered mail*? You wouldn't be getting any updates.
You don't need updates, just order it, and relax until it arrives. I have 5 pages or orders in my Gearbest history and there's never been an issue and it's always turned up within a month. usually 2-3 weeks. It's not as fast as FT's e-Packet shipping, but it's reliable.
