DHL and other couriers = customs
China parcel - Libanpost = no customs
Though as usual in this superb country they will do everything to make you regret to not pay more like delaying the delivery for weeks

In general there is a 1 week period for the seller to ready the items and send them (due to the huge amounts) this is "processing"
another 10 days for the parcel to arrive to lebanon
another 10 days for the customs to sort and send them through liban post
This will vary, unfortunately since there is no real addresses in lebanon this means it will take even longer (thats why i put my phone number in the address)
Sometimes i receive my goods after 15 days (after the seller ships) and sometimes after 80 days. My best experience was with Singapore post and the worst one was with Yanwen (they give you fake shipping info). A lot of times when they ship free shipping, they send with yanwen, so i recommend you tell them in a message not to ship with yanwen and then you have a solid proof when you ask for a refund.
well the cables cost was around 20$ but shipment with china air ... i dont recall the name was around 11$ so the total cost was 31$ .
so with this delivery service i should receive them through liban post with no additional fees , right ?
now i remember its called China Post Registered Air Mail .

Yes liban post will deliver to your home with no extra fee. There is an app on mobile called TrackChecker. I recommend you download it, retrieve the tracking number from aliexpress and it will tell you when a new event happens.

I use android, but here's a similar app on IOS. (apparently i can't post links) but search for TrackChecker on itunes.
Ok I have the choice between 2 good sellers for a pair of earphones plus ear hooks.
''Easy Earphone'' free delivery to Lebanon using China airmail with 15-60 days delivery
The other seller is saying Ali Express standard shipping, 15-45 days delivery.
''Easy Earphone'' is pretty much the most recognized seller at Head Fi and will refund in case of DOA.
So from your experience the posted delivery time is fake or it's better to pick the 15-45 days instead of 15-60 days?
From my experience the 15-60 or 15-45 or whatever they put there is pretty much meaningless. Try to go for Singapore or Hong Kong post because they seem faster than China.
I placed an order yesterday but it's still saying:

Processing Time remaining: 4 days 6 hours 57 minutes

If the seller doesn't process before the timing is finished they will cancel the order :/

Edit: They finally put it in the shipment state + tracking number that won't be working before 5 to 10 days lol

You'll be daily checking it the next 10 days, forget it in 15 days and receive it in 25-35 days.
So relax ))
Yeah I downloaded the app so if anything new it will give me a hint
Cool!
I had some tracking info today :)
They prepared my package in the warehouse and it lived the warehouse to the China Post
It's faster than expected, if the China airmail will take off today-tomorrow it should reach Beirut by Monday-Tuesday right?
Then Libanpost will need 2 weeks to think about it

Depends on the shipping. It might take 1 week to arrive to lebanon, then 1 week in customs.(sometimes waaaay more) Liban post are actually the good guys here. They delivered the package to my doorstep the next day it was out of customs.
I ordered about 84 items from Aliexpress so far never had a problem with a single one.

So the customs want to make you pay for not ordering via DHL and pay them VAT + 10% by taking all their time.

No, it's totally random, sometimes they clear something on the same day and sometimes they just don't. I mean isn't this whole country random anyway
