Many of us are looking for the fastest and cheapest way to buy this item of undoubted utility.
Having a battery that can be used in mobility that quadruples the life of our smartphone is definitely the forbidden dream of many of us.
Let us highlight the reasons why it is so difficult to capture this object of desire.
I've got to test it first-hand, shipping policies "from" and "to" China are sometimes extremely rigid.
Especially when it comes to batteries, couriers are competing to put the sticks between the wheels to those who want to import such items.
It has probably happened more than once that low quality batteries do damage during transport (various explosions) but dealing with those who want to buy from the battery of battery-powered objects like an importer of bacteriological weapons seems to me to be exaggerated.
Here is a list of roads tried for import:
SG Post: It is the slowest but cheapest shipping method. Here it goes to luck, in the sense that with a ratio of 1 on 3 the batteries are discarded and sent back to the sender. However, it is sufficient to send the package back to enjoy again the 66% chance of starting the shipment.
DHL: DHL policy is clear. You can not ship batteries that are not accompanied by a smartphone. Each smartphone, in addition to its battery, can carry an extra battery. This unfortunately could not be valid for Powerbank.
TNT: TNT allows shipping of batteries but the cost, compared to DHL, is higher. Furthermore, personally tested, the customs fees charged for importing batteries via TNT are truly high.
FedEx: It is perhaps the most suitable courier for battery shipment and Powerbank. It is cheaper than TNT and has the same logic as DHL for customs purposes. In case of smartphone orders containing Powerbank, this shipping method will be used.
By summing up, the Xiaomi powerbank from 10400mah was added to catalog (You can buy from this address).
If you buy a single PowerBank (or 2) this will be shipped via SG Post (be patient with patience).
If 3 or more PowerBank were purchased, they will be sent via FedEx.
We are considering the idea of giving an impulse to this accessory through a buying group, what do you think?

Hello. To me it puts DHL as shipping. As written in your article, however, DHL does not allow the shipment of batteries only.
Has politics changed?
