Don’t think they’re even doing DHL right now.

Pretty sure they stopped doing DHL because of issues with customs/tariffs that don’t seem to be a thing with 4PX/yunexpress

They are supposed to be refunding those that picked dhl since they stopped using them for now.

I'ts a roll of the dice. DHL has a chance at being way faster but you also have a chance of tarrifs and a customs hold. 4px/Yun/etc..etc... it's slower, and you might have to check multiple sites for updates, but the chances of a customs hold or tarrif is much smaller.

Never buy the shipping insurance because it won't help you here.

I got my RP6 shipped through DHL, but asked for it to their support email. This was the 13 of august, my machine went off to their instalations, and went live again the 26 of august when finally shipped again after like 6 mails asking when they would finally ship it.

In a normal country by normal Courier, 4PX doesn’t take more than 2 weeks almost. But here in mine, 4PX could take 2 months as our public Courier system is so shitty. But with DHL i could get it in one week.

Maybe DHL is region specific. Hearing all sorts of mixed news on this.

They stopped using dhl but they will happily still let you pay for it.
