[Ebay] From China (to Germany) shipping by "SpeedPAK" ...anybody familiar with this?
Hi,
when I wanted to order some tube sockets on Ebay from China I saw something I didn't notice yet before in any other offer: Shipping seems to be done by a company called SpeedPAK...
12 X 9PIN TUBE SOCKET MAGNOVAL Valve Base for EL504 EL509 EL502 Bottom Mount | eBay (German)
12 X 9PIN TUBE SOCKET MAGNOVAL Valve Base for EL504 EL509 EL502 Bottom Mount | eBay (English)
There seems to be only very few experience shared in the web yet. Do any of you guys know maybe what I can expect how long shipping will take and if it's probably recommended to go for the 5€-standard-service?
What I hope is actually that SpeedPAK deserves its name and the sockets could be expected to be here in 14 days if I choose this vendor.
Thank you!

Get deliveries from China a lot via SpeedPAK and in fact received one today that was shipped 20th July 2020. Don't expect a fast delivery as what I can gather is the service ships a lot of items together to the country of destination and then splits them up into individual packages for the local postage service (new local label attached).
However, I've never had an item go missing so it's seems reliable even in difficult times.
It's not like UPS or FEDEX.

SpeedPak is good.
I have one SpeedPak order out right now - It was delivered to SpeedPak on August 18 in China, and exited U.S. Customs on August 25. Here, SpeedPak goes through intermediary carriers when it departs customs, so slows down a bit until the U.S. Postal service takes delivery. It was last seen in Kansas City, Missouri, on August 29, and could be delivered to me any day now.
I have another item sent by AliExpress standard shipping. It was shipped on August 16, and exited U.S. Customs on August 25. It looked to be stuck in Grapevine, Texas, but USPS got it last night, so I could receive it today, but probably tomorrow.
When all the airlines were shut down, it was taking 90+ days to get stuff here, but I eventually received all my outstanding orders. It looks like shipping times are back to normal now.
