MooCow Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 just keep ordering and pay standard shipping listed as 'flat rate international' Link to post Share on other sites
Bada Bing Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Ive just recently ordered a TM Famas for a friend and they calculate the shipping and send you the total in an email. Link to post Share on other sites
cqbanimal Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Ive just recently ordered a TM Famas for a friend <{POST_SNAPBACK}> yeah, we've all heard the "for a friend" line before... Link to post Share on other sites
GuzziHero Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 When I order, I put down the US shipping cost. Hes always sent out at that And I have to say it... eHobby are GODS Link to post Share on other sites
MooCow Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 you guys DO know it says standard flatrate intl shipping or something along those lines right? my friend also says he's ordered from them before, last order was like a week or two ago and it cost the same as the US shipping when compared to the UK. oh shi- it was me. gotta stop letting george take over Link to post Share on other sites
pugboy Posted February 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 i did what U_N said to do cheers for all your replys Link to post Share on other sites
kerberos_ Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 I order all the time (one in transit as we speak). Only issues are they don't combine shipping which kinda sucks though most will say "it's still cheaper than ordering in the UK" which is true. Link to post Share on other sites
dannyboy Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 They do combine shipping. Buy everything you want, and wait for them to send you an invoice Link to post Share on other sites
kliskey Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Yeh, same as Kerberos - In the past few weeks, I have made like 2 orders per week As for only "shipping" with in the US, like someone has already stated, its an Int flat rate, so just press buy and they will send it to you EDIT: Danny they don't combine the shipping - You order as much as you want, and the shipping will be the same as if you were buying all the items individually Link to post Share on other sites
dannyboy Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Got combined last time I ordered Link to post Share on other sites
Bez Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 i ordered from them last night and no problems and yeah the only let down is the shipping! Link to post Share on other sites
kerberos_ Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Yip - I've asked about combining shipping and the answer was 'no' - This is even for $$$ worth of gear. My order has also been delayed because, when I ordered on the 18th, I reminded them to discount my $14.99 credit I was due. Received all sorts of shipping warnings, but played it calm (although my goods were late shipping) and decided to deduct it myself from the shipping total. That prompted a very quick response But means it only shipped like yesterday Link to post Share on other sites
samuel Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Ehobby are gods, plain and simple. Just ordered some small bits from them. Even when it says will ship to US they will ship it to the UK for the same price. Even though they are in HK they are usually faster than UK retailors as well as much cheaper.

kerberos_ Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Gun from rsov.com shipped Friday arrived today. Ehobby tends to take 7 days for me generally. Though, I wont really say anything bad against them - so far Link to post Share on other sites
GuzziHero Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Kerberos...when did you get your 'shipped' notification? I ordered 23rd, and got the notification on Monday. Just wondering if it may have shipped Friday but he only sent the informer on Monday, y'see. Tracking says "Last tracked at HK delivery agent". Me wants me M14! Edit: Oh, if anyone wants to copy my eHobby Worshipper userbar, feel free Link to post Share on other sites
djl Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Only problem I've ever had with eHobby is a recent one - ordered an ICS end cap for a MP5 (hoping to go for a "poor man's Kurz" look). Instead I've got someone else's order (totalling $130+ as opposed to my measly $23). I'm not too bothered about my end of the bargain 'cos I know I'll get it eventually, I just feel for the poor silly sod who's waiting on his goods (which are safe and sound behind my sofa Mr. Mystery Airsofter, if you're out there somewhere) with only my MP5 endcap as solace . Trying to get an answer from eHobby re: what to do next has been like pulling teeth - though admittedly they only discovered their error about twenty minutes before they shut up for the Chinese New Year. Still, as problems go, it could be worse - and it hasn't stopped me ordering from them in the meantime. No siree. Link to post Share on other sites

Edit: Oh, if anyone wants to copy my eHobby Worshipper userbar, feel free <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I know me and yourself are advocators of ehobbyasia. * I ordered 18th. *Received some "pay us" emails - inbetween I had been sending "please discount my credit note first". *decided to pay on the 20th taking my $14.99 from the shipping and cheekily only paying $1 postage ($3.01 less) *Subsequently received an email 21st saying I was short of X amounts and I explained why. *They accepted the error (not reducing credit note) but said I owed them $3.01 and I asked for an invoice for the $3.01. *Received that invoice 23rd paid within 5 minutes. *Asked for shipping note as had not received one 24 hours later. *Was sent one 26th February. If they were closed for CLNY, I didnt see it specified anywhere or was notified it would interfere with the delivery times. EDIT: Inbetween I did ask for shipping discount and actually, the auto-invoice was $3 too much (compared to individually adding up the totals per item) - nothing to do with the credit I Was owed etc. Link to post Share on other sites
GuzziHero Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Interesting. So your notice of shipping was 26th? Might get one thing Im waiting for today then And on the subject of postage, if anyone could tell me how the heck Cobra Airsoft got 3 M11 mags to me within 36 hours of ordering, its worth a +1!

kerberos_ Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 So you're expecting a 2 day shipping? Generally I found order Monday, arrives following Monday, possibly Friday. 36hours? Well mine shipped from HK 24th (Saturday) arrived today. Considering thats a weekend date, thats 'naw' bad and close to your 36 hours Link to post Share on other sites
GuzziHero Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 No...what im saying is, from eHobby I have had a notification on Monday several times with a shipping date on the parcel of the previous Friday. I wondered when your order had actually been sent Link to post Share on other sites
kerberos_ Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 aaaaaaaaaaaaha right gotcha Well I hoped they weren't waiting on my princely sum of $3.01 being sent before they shipped - tbh, my "shipped" emails always arrive in my email with the line "your shipment was sent today". I don't think I noticed an actual date? Can't check my hotmail from work so ... I'm sure I ordered mags from UN compnay or similar and they had a similar 36hour delivery time. EDIT: the stuff posted Friday and arrived today was from RSOV.com not ehobby BTW. Link to post Share on other sites

I ordered it off my mates ebay account and he recieved a lovely MP5 end cap! Apparantly they've re-sent the order now though. Link to post Share on other sites
GuzziHero Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 Ah yes. I was getting it wrong too! Ive ordered m14 mags from eHobby, the M14 is from RSOV. We were talking about the same place, nice not about the same place..if ya see what I mean Link to post Share on other sites
kliskey Posted February 28, 2007 Report Share Posted February 28, 2007 By the way for those of you complaining about late shipping in the past few days, Please dont forget its the Lunar new year in Asia, So everyone is on holiday (was? ) Link to post Share on other sites
