:lol: only waiting a week!!
I nearly had to wait a month! I got caught up right in the middle of the last Lipo fiasco back in the end of May, my package went out to the airport back to HK then out to Singapore then here in Britain, I got clobbered with another 25 quid thanks to our UK parcel force deeming it worth 12 pounds to look at a ticket! but guess what I was happy! 8) really happy.
Nobody anywhere can offer these amazing batteries at such a great price I was happy to wait a month knowing how good the cells would be, packaging was OK all parts were fine and the batteries are just mind blowing.
I have dealt with many companies over the years in the PRC and believe me HK are top flight compared to the others that I have used, if Steve Head from tech bikes still posted he could tell you a few horror stories about containers of stuff he ordered from PRC, HK website, prices and even delivery (we now have an EU warehouse) are simply brilliant.
Bottom line is its a risk getting anything shipped long distance, esp batteries! I knew this when I placed my order and there is no way I would even think of sending a 50 dollar battery half way back round the world if it didnt work? If folks want risk free transactions with vendor backup and support then you will have to pay I am afraid but hey you can feel happy you are supporting your local hobby shop?
For me they are worth the risk, my cells are stonking along nicely, perfectly balanced and thump out the power, I would happily wait a month again than to ever pay 3 times for them and or use cells that do not perform as well.
Just my 2 cents worth and cmon guys lets not throw insults around :? happy ebiking one and all.
