Dont choose china post,takes hell lot of time..
I ordered around 20+ pieces of 2.4 Ghz transceiver modules and a couple of Accelero/Gyro/Magneto sensor boards from Ali Express. The delivery took almost one and a half month via China Post and most of the modules were dead on arrival. :banghead:
The seller had an excellent feedback on the website. He was very, very prompt and courteous with the replies and promised me that he would send a fresh consignment ASAP. Another one month down, I'm still waiting for the consignment to reach me. :P
