I too pretty much won't buy any more unless they accept Paypal - one of the main reasons I buy VERY VERY little from Bintel. |
Lewis, When purchasing Astro gear I have almost exclusively made all my major purchases within Australia. I have dealt with Steve at My Astro Shop time and time again without fault and have likewise had the same dealings with Bintel.
It just seems that a lot of companies seem to be getting slack in Australia yet spruce the fact that the internet is killing their lively hood. Perhaps a few could look a little closer to home to discover the real cause of their demise.
China post and particularly the free post can take anywhere from 7 to 25 working days to arrive but from experience it seems 14 to 21 days from order seems to be pretty much the norm. 28 days from Sydney did seem a bit long without any email or other notification. Say what you like about Chinese dealers but they do keep you informed and they do know how to keep you coming back.
