Why do sellers list their stuff as coming from your Country only to find it is coming from China. :(

I am so over buying stuff which say's it is in Australia, then to find it actually is posted from China or other Countries. Very annoying as the post takes so long sometimes. ๐Ÿ˜ž

Always click on their feedback number.

 

It will give you the seller's country of Registration.

 

If it says China, then it will probably be coming from there.

 

An easy way to check in the future.

 

The estimated delivery date is also an indication.

 

It won't ake 3 weeks to deliver if it's in Australia.

 

There are numerous threads about this on the Buying board.

As mentioned, easily avoided

 

Far quicker to look at feedback before buying than finding out later it is coming from overseas

 

Especially in the case of electrical items which are most likely not only going to be fake knock offs but highly dangerous

I agree with you 100% on this.  I have been caught out often by this trick.  

 

From what I see, they are in Sth China, open an ebay account with an Aussie contact but the sales are through Shenzhen.

 

Annoying.
