HLJ shipping time to U.S.?

I just placed my first order ever with HLJ and was wondering what is the average transit time for an order when shipped to the U.S. via SAL? I'm assuming it's 2-3 weeks...correct me if I'm wrong.

THat's funny, I just placed in an order too.

But I chose EMS just wanted to be more sure and plus shipping is faster.

But the prices for EMS is like sometimes more than double SAL.

What did you order?

After seeing the Garage MAK silvia I had to buy it!
I also bought Kranze Shoki set of wheels. EMS shipping cost almost as much as my order! But I had to. I feel safer with EMS even though it hurts my wallet. For those 2 items it cost me $52 USD.
Shipping was probably 22 USD.

Saddening though the AVS model 5's are out of stock.
I also wanted some 19" equip 5 spokes but they too are out of stock.

EMS shipping is incredibly expensive, and SAL shipping is incredibly slow...

same here, someone pointed out that garage mak silvia on this board (thanks again!) and I went straight to HLJ and ordred it. everytime I order and think Im done for a while, I wind up placing another order because I just can't help myself. the change from UPS to SAL is a bad one IMO though. I don't have a problem I don't make a change. I liked UPS, my orders always arrived promptly. oh well

Bah Humbug.....I just ordered a bunch of upgrade stuff for the Enzo, a couple sets of rims and the Tamiya William FW24. I'm not in a big rush for the stuff but it would suck to wait over a month for the package to arrive.

I just received my first order from HLJ. I ordered the IN STOCK items on the 25th of june...and got the order on the 5th of july. So it took about 10 days using SAL. Hope this helps.

I just received my order today.

I'm from Canada and it took 29 days to receive by SAL (over 1 month since I ordered and everything was in stock)

Price of my order was 73$CND and I payd 16$ of custom/dutty fees.

yes.. and since the US dollard worth less everyday, I payd less Custom fees that expected

Now I have my primer to end my F&F Supra and Lexus IS300

This brings up a good point... Is everyone that's waiting very long for HLJ shipments ordering in stock items, or is the delay due to low inventory or backorders? I don't mind the long wait for backorders and low stock but, if they request payment and I send a Paypal or credit card funds it usually arrives in two weeks or 10 business day.

for me it took 30 days after they actually ship. 6 day to proceed my order (everything was in stock)

You wanna know why? 'Cause some people buy 10 - 20 sets of one wheel. IMO that is absolutely sick. 3 sets would also be enough.
