- If you place an order for products from both the U.S. warehouse and the Shenzhen warehouse, we will ship your order separately: the products from the Shenzhen warehouse will be sent from Shenzhen, and the products from the U.S. warehouse will be sent from the U.S. warehouse.
3. International Warehouse
Our products are stored in both our U.S. and Shenzhen warehouses to provide more flexible logistics solutions tailored to different regions and customer needs. On each product's description page, we indicate the specific warehouse location to help you better plan your purchase and delivery schedule.
3.1 U.S. Warehouse
3.2 Chinese Warehouse
We will only arrange YunExpressexpress shipping from Shenzhen for orders with products in the Shenzhen warehouse worth more than €50. Orders directly shipped from our Shenzhen warehouse are handled by YunExpress. Given the complexities of international shipping, the estimated delivery time for these packages is around 10 business days, though this may vary slightly due to customs processes or other uncontrollable factors. Otherwise, the products will first be shipped from China to our U.S. warehouse and then shipped to the final destination.
