Hi Health Cabin...Will you be bringing back the cheaper Airmail to the United States in 2013? I sure hope so! I believe all customers should be able to choose their mailing method even if it means taking a risk on their orders. I know my savings with ya'll are greatly reduced with having to pay the higher shipping cost. Thank you.

We do plan to resume China airmail to many countries including USA in the beginning of 2013. :)

Great news Newsunshine.. I shall be ready, in fact I have my order ready and waiting in my shopping cart. Most China airmail customers are probably like myself, they order smaller amounts, this makes the other shipping methods uneconomical. Others and myself will be pleased to hear this news..

Thank you so much! I will be filling up my shopping cart and order when the cheaper shipping is made available again :)


thank you amy. for people like me that do small orders several x a year, it will mean the difference between ordering and not ordering. I filled my cart the other day with 22. worth of stuff and shipping was quoted at $16., so i emptied my cart and went elsewhere unfortunately.

Could bet that a drop in sales of 50% was the reason for returning to cheap china air mail.
Honestly that's the only reason why I no longer buy on HC.
I even deleted HC bookmark.
I would like it to be all back to normal as it was before.
I loved spending my money there.

I loved shopping there also...but can't do it as long as the shipping cost is so high. Just cannot be justified. With the higher shipping cost I could just order here in the United States and pay about the same. One of the reasons we stopped the stinkies was to save money alot of money. Sadly that is not the case anymore. Actually, could go back to making my own stinkies cheaper...really don't want to do that :/

Same thing for me here in Thailand. I used to place several orders a month with HC. Tried one with the super expensive DHL shipping and it was returned twice to HC and could not clear Chinese customs. Order was only two Ego APVs, eternity coil set, drip tips, Vivi Nova bases and adapters. No juice or batteries. Had to get a refund after a nightmare scenario and have never ordered since. Many, many prior orders China Airmail all with no problems and always came within two weeks of the order date. HC has lost me as a customer until they resume China Airmail shipping.

Sorry. We have not decided the china airmail schedule for UK and Thailand.

Can you elaborate? Why the USA and not the others? Is there a special relationship? I cannot understand why the good old? U S of A should have priority over other nations. Please explain this move. Thanks.

I agree, why not the UK and all the other countries? We've been waiting so long for the cheaper China airmail to resume, you said it would be back in early Januaury, but you didn't say just the USA?:confused:

I sent Newsunshine a PM with proof that three recent packages (received less than a week ago) that got here via China Post got here in one to two weeks. I offered here the tracking numbers to see for herself. The only difference is that they all came from Beijing and HC ships from Shenzhen. That's even faster service then I got before with China Post. So on the contrary, China Registered Airmail is faster right now, not slower. She said they would take it into "their consideraation." I think it is something else on their end like they peed off customs or something? Cannot just be they don't want it to be slow, because the U.S. normally takes three to four weeks by China Post. UK and Thailand take less than two weeks. So why not resume shipping to the countries that are faster, instead of one of the slowest ones?
