I know people in the custom mech community that have paid over 100% for shipments through Fedex. It's crazy right now, can't wait for China Post to resume.

Eh forget about post pandemic orders i ordered before that in December 2019, just a knife and o-rings for keyboard but none of them were delivered. On that, does anyone know where to get o rings in India for any reasonable price? I badly need some.

I have done similiar thing, utilising an old cabinet fan with good air throwing capabilities. Tied that on graphics card, now temperature remains atleast 7 degree lesser at full load,compare to stock fan. Its crude method but works

All my pre-pandemic orders used to be delivered in a month's time. Just use the AliExpress standard shipping. My friend has a bought some cheap mobile accessories a
in the last 2 months and he got them delivered.

In Bangalore atleast all china parcels are being held for long times and customs is being charged even for small items.
