The first experience of having a china post delivery courier. The worst service in the world! Most reviews from consumers, almost 99% of stuck items, wrong items, missing items. There is a customer service pound not helping. My stuff ZA01304943501 has until my pounds can take for weeks. Delivery very slow. The worst courier company China Post ..

Piece of crap. I ordered a non-invasive glucose meter. They delivered a pulse oximeter. I know the difference. Nothing but a SCAM!

Got a little worried after reading all the negative reviews. Ordered a team jersey from jerseyoutleshop. Arrived perfectly fine about 10 days later.

Thanks, Daisy. Thank you for your reminder. I followed your advice and filed a refund request with PayPal. PayPal finally refunded me the full amount. No loss. You are truly a dedicated China Post employee.

My package states that it was undeliverable because of an incomplete address. My address is NOT incomplete. Now the order is being returned to sender(in Ireland, I'm in the US). I'm very upset considering it's very difficult to track a package with CP, you can never tell if the site you are getting updates from is a 3rd party or actually China Post because of ALL the pop-up ads. Now I'm going to have to wait another two weeks for it to be returned before I can even get a refund. I'm very upset.
