Hello, sorry for the noob question, I've recently approved a TDs order and I paid for DHL, but i got given a 4PX tracking number, is this normal?

I'm just alittle worry coz 4PX doesnt have very good review on delivering product. Ive already emailed the TD but wanted to see what others think too.

I'd say trust your TD, they are called Trusted Dealers for a reason. I am guessing it's not the first time they are sending a watch to your country, so they know what works best. Besides, these are crazy times and some shipping companies might not be offering the same services as always. You may ask the TD, but, again, I'd just wait patiently.

Ive searched the forum, and a few particular TD are doing the same thing, people pay premium for DHL and get 4PX shipping, although the issue here is them not been honest about it piror, just by simply saying it's the best way doesn't cut it, because 4PX is definelty cheaper than DHL.

Are TD allow to do this? trailboss99 boss?

Edit: Not to mention 4PX is much slower and reviews are really bad with 4PX .

It happend to me also.
I am really worried but they told me that DHL has more than one month backlog.
I hope to get the packages...
But they gave me the warranty for customs issues.

I'd ask for a partial refund and if you don't get it take out a support ticket for sales mod assistance.

If the forwarder is based in HK (they probably are because all TDs use the same service), ask for FedEx instead. With my TD, there is a slight delay (approx 5-7 days) in package pickup from the date the QC is cleared but package is reaching CONUS in 2 days. Received 3 packages like this in the last 3 weeks.

The only issue I can think of is if your TD uses FedEx and if FedEx is safe to your country (FedEx is very strict with customs)

srhoque you see though the TDs didn't tell us or say anything or give us any options before or after we paid, we just got given an excuse and just have to accept it is the problem. I feel scammed on shipping.

Has anyone had a completed delivery with 4PX? I ordered from trusty about 10 days ago, and the tracking seems to drop off at "Depart from facility to service provider." Does this mean that 4PX is not the provider of shipping, but rather the tracking service or forwarder? I'm just confused. This is going to CONUS, so perhaps it'll get handed off to USPS? I think I'm just going to forget about it for a couple weeks and hope for the best. :confused::p

Forgive my ignorance... I've always had DHL used (I'm sure they're backlogged).

Seamaster3459 my package is stuck at that too, i think there's 2 possible reason:
1. The package gets handed over to Hong Kong.
2. It's on it's way to your destination.

They are shipping illegal goods out of the country. All the TDs use shipping agents. The agent will decide the shipper in the end not the TD. The agent will consider various factors , which in the current situation of minimal available flight space is quite complex. Factors to consider will be , inspection potential. both on shipment and at various points of transit and at destination, available flight space , time and cost. These are difficult times and as always patience and consideration of the Td's position are of prime importance .

Agree - like I said... I’ll probably just let it pleasantly surprise me in a couple weeks.. ????

Yep same here

Pick up booked 9 days ago and so far has made it to the Hong Kong hub.
With DHL it would be here already.

Oh well and I’m sure there’s a good reason for using this courier. It does seem expensive, slow and with laggy tracking.
As long as it arrives. It’s currently not leaving the house for a while anyway due to lockdown!

I have one with this shipper as well. I had never heard of them until now, but I am not one bit worried. Mine was received on the 14th so a little after some of you.

TD's change shipping methods from time to time depending on which way the wind blows. I have heard from multiple sources that shipping is not good right now so the usual rule applies, be patient.

As one of the earlier posters said, just stop looking at the tracking and be pleasantly surprised one day.

If we are still having this same conversation 3 weeks from now I will then be worried. Until then, relax and spend your time on something more priductive.
