Where a term is not published we record it as null rather than estimating. Terms change without notice; the collection date above is the reference.
Storage and consolidation
Allchinabuy publishes a 90-day free storage window. The number that matters as much as the length is when the clock starts: warehouse check-in at some agents, purchase at others, which is worth about a week.
Consolidation is offered. Requesting it before packing avoids restarting the packing clock, which is the most common avoidable delay at this stage.
Lanes commonly used
| Lane | Freight at 1.5 kg | Median days | Slowest 10% |
|---|---|---|---|
| US — Express | $11.40–$17.20 | 10 days | 21 days |
| EU — Standard | $7.10–$11.90 | 23 days | 47 days |
Lane availability varies by destination country; the lanes shown are the ones this agent most commonly uses in our sample.
Two variables to watch
| Variable | What it changes |
|---|---|
| Minimum fee applies to | Minimum fee applies to very small orders |
| Rehearsal packing changes billed | Rehearsal packing changes billed weight after payment |
These are the two factors that most often explain a difference between an estimate and a final invoice for this agent.
