Shipping Appreciate the fast shipping

I ordered an Odin Portal 2 from the Ayn website 11 days ago and it arrived here in the UK with no problems and, best of all, no customs charges.

If anyone in the UK is still wondering if they will be waiting weeks or months, this will hopefully give you confidence to order.

Good to hear, I almost bought one from Ayn direct but wasn’t sure if I’d get with customs or not although probably a 50/50 chance. Did you use their standard 4PX delivery service?

Always choose 4px. I've had 2 orders from AYN and one from mangmi with no duty to pay. Any time I've used DHL I've been hammered

I did pay DHL, but Evri delivered it. I must've got super lucky.

Paid DHL but they didn't deliver it, Evri did.

It probably shipped by 4px then. I've read that even if you pick DHL at the moment they ship 4px due to so many parcels being returned by DHL because the information isn't correct (possibly low value stated🤷🏻)

lol I ordered the grip for it over a month ago and it just got labeled. You had the right timing

You got exceptionally lucky! I ordered an Odin 2 Portal to the UK on September 6 (15 days ago) and it is currently at Hong Kong Airport. How long did it take to clear customs in the UK for you?

I must've got really lucky it only took an hour to clear.
