Bicycle bells from china
Thank you, that's more like it. 🙂 China can send items through the mail really cheap because they usually come Surface which you are right is really slow. Like 2 or 3 months slow sometimes. To use a faster airmail service from China, however, would cost at least $40. They don't have a "slightly" faster service for just a "wee bit" more.
Then there is the language issue. It is unlikely the seller knew what you meant, probably thinking you meant "please get this in the mail right away". That would make more sense to a seller rather than think you meant "my offer depends on an upgraded courier service to Canada".
When buying from China, take it as is or find a seller on THIS side of the ocean. All you can do now is wait. If it is for Christmas, fingers crossed. If you have other Christmas shopping, buy closer to home, like Canada or the US. And if your bells are not here as Dec 25th approaches and you need them, buy some at a store near you and ask about their return policy (just in case the China ones show up on Dec 24th).
