Need suggestions of a gift under 25$ from aliexpress free shipping to INDIA

Old days are gone,new govt rules now charge customs duty on any foreign shipment marked as gift(a trick commonly used by many aliexpress sellers earlier). @getready should know more about this.

There is no Limit (acc to new rules)
If u get lucky..there will be no customs (Received three ordinary packages this week worth 5$ w/ zero customs)

China post ordinary*
Non-trackable shipments

How many days it took? I had ordered few chillar items almost 55 days ago. Yanwen and cainio shipped cheap products reached 20 days ago, but none of the china post ordinary products have come yet. Does non-trackable china post usually take longer?

And 2nd query, do all products carry 60-day dispute policy? In 2 cases, seller has extended delivery time/purchase protection officially. So in these cases, dispute time is still 60 days only, or the newer updated time by the seller? (for non delivery of product).

Delivery time..it depends
I’ve got non-trackable shipments within 3 weeks too but 1 month is the regular time frame
All my china ordinary, yanwen shipments are from Dec 4 (About 6+). One got delivered during Jan 1st week, one last week,two this week (Feb), two more pending (1 delivery time extended and one ran out of time)
Sellers usually extend delivery time by a month or two. If they don’t and the purchase protection is running out, its better to message seller to extend the delivery time
Post 60day period, the item gets auto-confirmed and the only way to proceed will be “raising a dispute”. Most of the times, sellers will ask u to cancel the dispute so that they will check n dispatch again but this doesn’t happen often

Those people involved will be only from China as Virus can sustain only for couple of minutes/Hours w/o host
and it has no relation with people living in India or the transportation people who deliver it to You (After a month)
Basic Sense!

No, see the big picture,
Not very likely but since incubation period of virus is high there will still some contact between the delivery associates and they would not know if they are infected or not.

I am not saying dont order but you can limit the non-essential (specifically deal/loot items from china for some days)

Not high..very low (in relation w/ international shipments)
Current estimates of the incubation period of the virus range from 2-10 days,
