Sucks to hear that when I got mine in a week to Germany and that did include delayed delivery of 3 days after i was away the first time they did try to get it to me :sweat_smile:
Have to say i was impressed that linsoul did get them this fast here was expecting a delay with 11.11 influx of orders

Before the pandemic, it was early 2019 if I remember well, I had my BGVP DM6 stuck for 2 months in customsā€¦ patience and hope are requested in these cases. Sorry for you anyway, until further notice. :crossed_fingers::crossed_fingers::crossed_fingers:

How much did you have to pay in vat, customs fee and postage fees with linsoul? I am also from Germany, but didnā€™t want to gamble with all the fees, so I ordered from hifigo. Last time it took 3 days after customs to arrive at my door, but now it is already 6 days in status ā€œcustom cleareance completedā€

During 2020 I got lucky with aliexpress and some other vendorsā€¦ packages took soo long, that I could open a dispute with aliexpress and get my money backā€¦ the merchandise arrived a few weeks later. Didnā€™t really benefit however, since it was only a few dollars worth of stuff and I just ordered it a second time anywaysā€¦

You see, patience pays off. Honestly, 6 days (and yes, still counting) in the customs is nothing dramatic. It happened to me several times, sometimes even longer than a week (Switzerland) and the items always arrived at the end. Still, itā€™s understandableā€¦ YOU WANT IT NOW! :wink: Itā€™s annoying having the new toy not too far away from your door, while owners already report impressions.

With a bit of luck, you will get them on Saturday morning or early next week.

Only got to pay 23ā‚¬ customs for a 400$ order, so not sure how much value linsoul did declare

Who tried the Timeless with the azla crystal ?

Have anyone compared these to the GL20ā€™s?

Order is still at unfulfilled stage, I guess that makes sense, but frustrating, I really hope Iā€™m not abroad for Christmas when it comes. I expect if I canceled the order Iā€™d be out of my $100 for $50 voucher as they were special to that period. Not much choice.

I ordered the blue Mele on 11.11 and it got fulfilled immediately, and then the box sat in a sorting center for 6 days. International shipping has some crazy randomness to it.

I am new to getting stuff direct from China, but have had a few watches shipped from the EU. At least this isnā€™t as stupidly expensive. Shipping a $300 watch from Switzerland can easily cost $75 without taxes, and still take two weeks and may need to clear customs ( usually price dependent ).

My Timeless ordered Linsoul UK/Amazon came from China had zero VAT/customs added and the declared value IIRC?..letā€™s just say in my favour :call_me_hand:

I am not sure, but I believe their Amazon store has different policies regarding taxes/customs.

Having a low declared value can also backfire when they ask you for proofā€¦ happened to me despite (luckily) the value beeing declared correctly and not even beeing a good deal/price. So I had no problemā€¦ had to send them an online banking screenshot.

Youā€™re probably right itā€™s just how my set was delivered and itā€™s customs declaration label :man_shrugging:

I have tried crystal. Timeless works for me with most tips. Crystal let more treble through than my spinfits. And they donā€™t enhance the bass either. I like crystal a lot. The regular earfit and spiraldots are also good options.

Iā€™ll order the Xinhs 4 core Graphene cable (with dark grey hardware @nymz :sunglasses:) and the SpinFit CP100 M tips. I hope all pairs well. If any of these improves comfort and/or sound Iā€™ll be more than happy. This iem is very good, so any upgrade is more than welcomed.

Glad my cable still making waves :love_you_gesture:

Itā€™s a lovely cabe, hope you enjoy it!

are you in the States? it took about 2 weeks for me to get it from linsoul (ordered 10/27, received 11/9). It sat in unfulfilled for about 1.5 weeks of that 2 weeks and then I got it right away after it shipped on 11/5, even though they gave me a 11/22 expected delivery date.

what was really crazy was that I ordered the Xenns Ups on 11/8 and got it on 11/11. awesome speed but it does mean I havenā€™t given the Timeless the time and attention it deserves.

I am. Ordered November 10th. I think by 11.11 they were oversold but kept taking orders anyway.
