I believe it won't be much longer. I got mine in 2 weeks from ordering custom made to Australia. Really happy

Give it another month. China post is very inconsistant, sometimes your order arrives in 2-3 weeks, other times it takes up to 6-7 weeks.

@Shirley S, you can actively track you package by the tracking number provided by the seller.

Date of arrival depends on where you are and the efficiency of your country's postal system. Goods are known to arrive into USA and
Europe quicker than to third-world countries.

Let me explain further: I live in the Philippines, which is just a few
Hours by flight from China. Yet my orders take two months to arrive.
Unbelievable as it may be, but I have never receive anything less
Than two months.

It may or may not come that the honest truth I've ordered many things from aliexpress, some items never came and then some came on time, its a gamble. I only order very unique items that i cant find anywhere else. Or if its something really cheap like 2- 10 bucks that i wouldn't mind losing if something happened. For future reference make sure you research all of you vendors before purchasing through aliexpress and google. Be super careful because if your payment is stolen or lost there is no customer service to help. Good Luck

From my experience... never... and then you won't ever get a refund either.

Depending on the shipping fee & the country of the receiver. Usually if it is free shipping. The fastest transaction takes 15 days or takes 2 months... sometimes it get delayed because if custom problems. Or in the worst case it got lost! Anyways... before purchasing always consider the rate of the shop or feedbacks just to avoid fraud... scam.

I am in the middle east. It sometimes takes 2-3 months! Really bad + the last 4 orders were hold by the airport and was returned twice! I don't know why! When i ask they say we changed our regulations! Anyways, you can add money for express delivery. Or just order and forget!
Good luck

It's depend the country where do you lives, a standar time maybe 45 days, sometimes 60 depends the weather to, i recomend that always talks before with the customer, and ask to way that they shipp the orders, recomend that the track number will be standard for you can track using the global sites, if the store sent by ways no standards you don't know if your order is on way, china air registered post, Hong Kong post (my recomendation) uses standard global track, others like yanwen, and similares don't uses standard track.

To be save you can request to extend your Purchase Protection. So if the goods don't arrive, or don't arrive within a normal delivery time, you can ask a complete refund. After 85 orders at AliExpress I never lost a penny...
Be patient, most of the time the goods will arrive.

It took 3 months for me to get my order and I had to keep emailing and complaining to them. All I'd get for a response was be patient.

From what I experienced in the past. I received the items some at least 1 month and a week after the order and the latest was after 2 and half months.

Depends where you live and also the person selling
I've had stuff in 3 weeks and others in just under two months
As for hassle I've had two disputes and they were solved the same day and I received a full refund
I've never had an issue there
I only order the cheap stuff though I've never bought electronics or anything over the ten dollar range
But two weeks I wouldn't be freaking out just yet
They usually give you a tracking number some sellers give it to you in Chinese where to me means nothing as I'm Canadian and don't read write or communicate in Chinese
But so far no issues
Try looking at the estimated shipping time and if it goes over contact the seller
If they don't respond dispute it and they refund you
First time it happened my product got sent back by customs and the seller told me right away and refunded without question
Second time my most recent the time was way over shipping time and I sent 5 emails to the seller
I finally hit dispute and explained and they refunded me no questions with in two hours they agreed

Isn't there a "tracking status" that would at least indicate if it's in the U.S. or still not out of China.
I've had things take 6 weeks from placement of order until delivery. As another person on this forum said: You're really playing Russian Roulette by doing business with Ali Express. Take my word for it: if something goes wrong, you'll feel as though the hassle they put you through isn't worth getting you're money back... And you'll never order from this place again. With that being said, some vendors are good and honest - I Wish You Good Luck

If ordering overseas, your item will most likely take 3 weeks to 45 days to arrive. I order overseas many a times and it takes about 30 days to receive. If ordering again in the future, insure you won't need the item right away unless you pay for air shipment otherwise it does take a month or so.

Usually I'd say any day now, but unfortunately there are times when things sit at customs here in the U.S. Or overseas for any number of reasons and things can take a month or more.
If you don't receive your items by 30 days it's time to begin to fight for a refund. I recommend this mainly because you only have an email as any proof that anything is on its way and AliExpress was less than helpful to some in the past

I've stopped any business through aliExpress there are other options and even some here domestically that will match the prices without the almost Russian roulette risk of doing business through Ali
I'm sure there are some great venders but the organization itself has proven to unprofessional. Or outright untrustworthy either way I've found I am happier elsewhere. I hope you have better results
