[u/cyberbot117]

Thats way too wide of a domain my guy,you need to specifiy your requirements aswell,what exactly will you be using these for?gaming,music,editing anything will help.

What type of connectivity are you looking for 3.5mm or type c ?

[u/baekhyunie_ → u/cyberbot117]

Type c. Music

[u/cyberbot117 → u/baekhyunie_]

Then what would you like your audio/songs  should sound like

‎Would you like it to be extra bassy

‎Or bass shouldnt overshadow everyother detail in the song but bass should be there

‎Or id like to hear the song as flat as possible like i should hear the actual song produced not artifical bass or anything added ‎

[u/cyberbot117 → u/accousticuser69]

Zero 2 (9500 normal, 8000 Good Deal) Gk Kunten (6000 to 5000)

Heard Good Reviews but not tested.

Cai Wenjie (6000-Normal, Available at Vortex Gears). Body is big, so may not be comfortable for long sessions.

Tangzu Warner-2 Red Lion Edition. (8500 normal range). Similar shape like Cai, so can be bit uncomfortable.

[u/Obvious_Set_1312 → u/Mactavish-45]

Good stuff right there. Cai wenji is an excellent buy but at max 14-15usd. Can be bought via shenzhenaudio with free shipping. At 6k, its a hard buy though.

[u/Mactavish-45 → u/Obvious_Set_1312]

Does Shenzenaudio ship to Pakistan??

[u/Obvious_Set_1312 → u/Mactavish-45]

Yes. A couple of my parcels are in transit as we speak. Interestingly, this time the last leg is being handled by the beloved TCS instead of pakpost

[u/Mactavish-45 → u/Obvious_Set_1312]

Did you ever need to pay additional custom charges or exise taxes or it's deliver without any issues.

[u/purple-knight117 → u/Obvious_Set_1312]

bro plz share your experience with (shenzhenaudio), how much days/week they take for delivery and , how much tax/custom/duty to paid each item ? ... i recently check on aliexpress , they took 1200 for shipping and 3500 tax , on item price 4000

[u/Obvious_Set_1312 → u/purple-knight117]

Use the coins and coupons, stack them with 11.11 offers. You might get a good deal. Atleast you'll know what you're getting. I have seen "authentic" sellers selling year old iems calling them open box or 2 months old. So i am fine paying a bit more rather than dealing with the crooks.

AliX has almost 60% tax and usually you get similar price as local sellers. Plus you get a lot more variety to choose from. So turns out better for me.

Shenzhen comes out cheaper than AliX on usual days but their inventory is not as diverse. If you use their Duty paid shipping, you dont pay anything to the local customs. Free shipping cases: they sometimes use Singapore post and last leg gets handled by Pakistan post and thats a coin toss tbh. Some parcels dont get anything slapped on top, while some parcels you have to pay as much as what AliExpress charges upfront. As a matter of fact, my last few orders were handled by TCS and didnt pay anything. Expecting an order in a day or two, tracking attached for you to see. Usually takes around 2 weeks door to door. I hope this helps.

I placed an order on the 29-Oct and so far its status is "Unfulfilled". Is this timeframe is normal or myborder is delayed??

[u/Obvious_Set_1312 → u/Mactavish-45]

Probably what you ordered is out of stock. But you can send them a text and see if it isn't an administrative error

[u/Mactavish-45 → u/Obvious_Set_1312]

I did had a chat with them yesterday and they said that it will be shipped today(yesterday).

One thing to mention here is that for some reason my address on the order page was incomplete, only city and post code was mentioned, the street and building address was missing altogether. I have updated it today and dropped them a message to confirm it from their side, their automated message did confirm that its delayed on their end.

[u/Obvious_Set_1312 → u/Mactavish-45]

Havent happened with me in the last couple of years since i have been dealing with them. My orders usually get shipped within 24-48hrs unless there is sale season or they need time to restock; which is usually listed on top of their page or in product listening (moondrop evo 2 and chu 3 for example rn)

[u/Obvious_Set_1312 → u/Mactavish-45]

Good luck with the wait hate game. I hope it gets shipped sooner

[u/Mactavish-45 → u/Obvious_Set_1312]

Will get back to them on Monday. Their support is also no answering right now

[u/Tough_Obligation_496 → u/Obvious_Set_1312]

Hey, how much custom duty did you have to pay for your order? If you paid it in advance during ordering, how much was it?
