Anyway.
I have this item that has never Left China.
http://i1018.photobucket.com/albums/af309/avoakrabian/12_zps2abe9bff.png

I got a full refund for it.

You will eventually receive it.

I received my item exactly 2 months after the date of the "Departure from outward office of exchange", but I also had opened a dispute and got a full refund. (And during all this time, tracking the package through Libanpost website always resulted in NO DATA, even in the day before I received it).

Therefore, I then transferred the money to the guy in China using OMT/Western Union. The items were worth 140$, the transfer fee cost me 22$.

Hmmm Why did you do that?
I would not have paid them.
You think they will know if the items come after months after a dispute and a refund??
How did you end up paying for them,was it because of your good intention towards the seller, or he contacted you to pay back?

Plus my items are like 23$ worth, not that big.

Yes good intentions, it was not his fault, China Post broke down for everyone during November-December 2013.

Re: AliExpress in Lebanon

Well you posted earlier a tracking number rb830883845cn which arrived yesterday and today had been sent to baalbeck according to Liban Post website but maybe it's just a coincidence or you had been given a tracking number for another customer in baalbeck.

Wow! Well I'll have to wait more. Do you think I should extend the delivery expiry date if I don't receive the items within the initial deadline? I'm just wondering how other guys in other countries receive the items in 10 days via Chinese Post!

Yes, always extend the delivery expiry date.
Since it hits 5 days remaining. Request to extend the delivery date. Otherwise your money will be paid to the seller without you having the item.

Its just Lebanon, thats why!

I might be a bit too conservative, but I fail to understand why you wouldn't repay the seller.
You actually did receive your items, even though delayed.
And unless the delay caused you serious financial or health distress, one could easily call this theft... Especially that he had no control whatsoever over the delivery and that he stood by his product nonetheless...
Try to imagine the a situation where you are the seller and him the buyer and tell me if you still think it's fair not to repay him.

Re: AliExpress in Lebanon

Guys how do I track my items that are being shipped by singapore mail? I got a tracking number, but once I put it to track my items, I get a message saying I have to wait 24 hours for items to appear in list. I have been trying for the last 4 days.

Re: AliExpress in Lebanon

@MrClass if you still can't find tracking information then it's time to contact the seller maybe the number had some errors or it's fake.
but i had such problem once and the solution in my case was to try more then once in a row and sometimes the service is unavailable but they still display the 24 hour message 8-( .
EDIT: just after this post i clicked the red Track Item button about 8 times before getting the info's.

Yes I just called them. They gave me the postal code of my building.

The number is 01629629 ext 1525. Call that to get your postal code (you will have to supply your whole address).
