Lead Time for JLCPCB Order?

[trag]

I just did a "reorder" of my 2021 order on JLCPCB of the boards in question.

The price of the boards was about the same at ~$50, plus a smidgeon.

Last time, the shipping was $3...

This time shipping is about $40 with another $18 in tariffs and about $8 in taxes. Total ended up at $120 on $50 of boards...

Ah well...

Probably should have checked 4PCB/ADvanced, which is domestic, but clicking the "reorder" button and not worrying about properly naming and zipping up the gerber files was just too easy.

Yep I just ordered 5 unassembled boards last night from JLC. Board total was $10.50 Final total with DHL shipping $60.

global standard was 3 times less but I was worried about getttig hit with $30.00 tarif on arrival after waiting a month for slow shipping. It’s a lose lose either way

Thank mango mussolini for tariffs... Remember, they're the greatest ever. People will respect a man who wields tariffs...




/s of course.

Well at least I finally got a refund check yesterday from ups for the multiple $40.00 pay on arrival tariffs.

Did you talk to someone specific about that? I'm still getting stiffarmed and they owe me a lot more than $12.

No I just shook my head.. I've payed UPS hundreds at the door.. And they take CHECKS only! So i have to go find the damn checkbook!
One delivery guy told me that younger people always say "what's a check"? LOL

And boards arrived on my doorstep today. Today is Wednesday, unless I am very confused (easy to lose track of day of week after retirement) and I ordered early Thursday morning. So less than one week from order to delivery (in Texas) for this reorder.

There were a couple of emails with their engineer, as they seem to be defaulting to plugged vias now, and my gerbers showed untented, or some such. I told them to go ahead and plug. It makes probing (and rework) more difficult, but reduces chances of shorts next to solder pads. Or so I interpret it. Correct me if I'm wrong.
