Good Service from Aliexpress and Parkview Post Office.

Despite the many negative reviews about Aliexpress delivery from China to South Africa I decided to try their service for the first time as they had the items I required. I wanted to use two old Zepplelin Air speakers with Apple Music running on an iPad Air. So ordered two USB hifi 1.5 m cables b to c and two aluminum iPad stands in November 2022. Estimated delivery dates were 24 and 25 January 2023. I was kept well informed by Email of the shipping progress, when the products entered the country, when cleared through customs and when they arrived at the local pick-up point - Parkview Post Office. Only problem encountered was the PO could not give me the packages on Saturday 22 January 2023 for a couple of hours due to load shedding and then when the power came back on it was 20 minutes before the PO computers came back online. I was asked to check one package as it had been opened, possibly at customs, but the content was intact. So in short will order again from Aliexpress using their cost saving postal delivery. The extra charge at the PO for the imported goods amounted to R306.50 for an order costing R1675.70 about 18.3% extra.
