Placed an order for a set of cranks via AliX no movement and no response from elilee. Really bad service and comms.

Ordered on the 1st, no comms and movement since. I’d expect comms at least.

A similair experience for me so far - Order placed Oct 23. After a week I asked if they would ship it - to which they put a non-existant "Fedex IP" tracking number on it and marked it shipped. No way to track, and no response from them for a few days when I asked if they had faty-fingered the tracking. Don't know what to do but wait and see if the cranks magically show up :noidea:

Happened the same to me in Spain. I got a first tracking message empty, it updated with real info a week after when it reached the Chinese regional sorting center. So I would not worry at this point in time.

Being a elilee retailer, the shipping from Eli is not the best. Even when I place orders it takes a week to ship out.

Has anyone ordered a crank on Aliexpress to the EU?

Aliexpress says
Price Adjustment
Orders shipped from outside of EU with a goods value above EUR150 will be subject to VAT upon importation into the EU. The price of your order has been adjusted to reflect a later collection of VAT at the customs. You are encouraged to confirm the logistics and tax payment arrangement (for VAT, duties, agent fees, etc.) with the seller.
and removes VAT from the price.

Any experiences whether it will actually go through customs?
