Deal Extreme shipping time?

[Jackie P]

I'm in need of some batteries (just ordered a Chuck!) and the place to get them seems to be dealextreme.com

Just wondering if anyone can tell me how long they usually take to ship to the UK? It's probably going to be at least 2 weeks before my Chuck arrives so I'm not in a major rush, but obviously if it's going to take a month I'll have to think again.

have you tried ebay? i sourced my batteries from HK. Took about 2 weeks to arrive.

Deal Extreme are in china so I presume it would take around the same time? I can actually get what I want from the UK but they cost a lot more. Just trying to weight up the cost vs shipping time really.

my bad, had always thought DX was based in US. well i have no experience with DX but the prices do seem pretty good, cheaper than ebay it looks.

My DX orders always arrive within 10 days.

Yea its around 10 days, it will beat your chuck here if you get the EMS I think it is shipping.

I have bought a few items off of deal extreme and was very suprised at how quick they arrived. 3 seperate orders and they all arrived within 7 - 10 days inc weekends, not bad but they were free shipping too!

Be careful about the quality of the batteries from DX though, I bought some lithium button cells and they were not very good at all. I guess you get what you pay for!

Dang, I wish I had your good luck.....I ordered a charger + 2 batts on 9/7....got an email updating me on arrival on 9/21.....it'll be another 7-10 days before delivery!!! What's up wit dat!?!

btw: can anyone suggest a supplier (preferably one in the USA) for spare attys for my Janty Stick? Janty USA has been out for ages! Oh, and who is the best/better supplier for nic-only juice??

Thanks!
