If you do as was stated above please let us know if you had to pay any extra charges when you receive your package, also please let us know what the shipping charges are. I've had to pay extra charges with courier companies so I'm curious if that has changed. Thanks

Re: Problems shipping from hobby king international warehouse...

Anyone buy any batts from them through the International warehouse lately? I just tried to order a few packs from them through the International warehouse (this packs were not available through the USA warehouse) and I didn't get any shipping options. Just got this message:

"Unable to ship this parcel to your country due to size/weight."

So does this mean that shipping packs through the International warehouse is now NOT even an option? Last time I visited this subject, you could order through the International warehouse but you would have to endure exceedingly long wait times so the USA warehouse was the better option.

I don't know what size batteries you are trying to ship , but I was able to purchase 3s 2200 batteries. The only shipping option was FedEx though. Maybe there is a limit to what size and amps can be shipped.

Re: Problems shipping from hobby king international warehouse...

There is a limit and it's not very many mah before you reach it. I stopped ordering batteries from HK as soon as the only option was fedex. I order from dealmetic.com and banggood now. There are 2 shipping options with dealmetic. I use the cheap one...lol. I buy the hunger, vortex and small kingmax batts and they work great. I haven't had a problem and I ordered from them over 10 times. Same goes for banggood.

Re: Problems shipping from hobby king international warehouse...

FYI,
I ordered from the international warehouse on Dec 28th, cheapest shipping method, arrived Jan 13th. No Batteries in order.
i though the shipping rate was a bit steep this time though. I will be looking at US warehouse or other stores from now on.....

Re: Problems shipping from hobby king international warehouse...

Using Purolator NOT UPS from HK warehouse in US to Canada should be ok. (I could be wrong!)

I order from US west warehouse and use purolator. No fees at the door and nothing comes later in the mail. Don't use UPS whatever you do

Order from the usa west warehouse and you can order lots of batteries. I can order 4x 6s16000 packs for my s900 and it's no problem to ship. Usa east won't even ship me lipos
