How long does it take for ebay products to arrive?

Question

i'm a new user on ebay and i was just wondering how long approx it takes for something to arrive

on july 7 i bought a little silicone case for my ipod for 15 cents from hong kong

my bank account has been charged 15 cents already and it's free shipping

anyone have any idea on when it may be here?

are there frauds (( like computers on aol instant messenger )) on ebay?

Answer 1

With standard shipping, it will take a long time to arrive from Hong Kong. Since it stated "standard shipping" on the listing, you wouldn't want to give the seller a bad review. They don't deserve it until the item has had time to arrive. Plus, if you give unwarranted bad reviews, then you get negative feedback from the seller and after too many of those, no one will want to sell to you.

This is one of those "lessons learned" experiences for you. I set a "distance from me" limit when I bid on things so that I don't have to deal with shipping from the Far East. Australia can be slow, too. Europe has been no problem for me--especially things from the UK.

Good luck! ; )

Answer 2

Yes, there are frauds.

Contact the shipper, give them a bad review and report it to ebay.

Answer 3

About 2 months from Hong Kong.

Answer 4

Don't give the shipper a bad review yet, it is coming from Hong Kong.  It can take up to two weeks.  Read the other reviews first, contact the shipper, and if you never get it, they may replace it without charge.  If they're uncooperative, than give them a bad review.
