GearBest is one of the most famous international retailers where you can buy electronic devices of Asian origin. Over the years, the well-known store has decided to integrate a shipping method that allows you to not pay additional additional costs through delivery with Italy Express.

Given the confusion of some users on this topic we decided to clarify the operation of this type of shipment.

GearBest introduced an update to that shipment that will allow it to be faster than the previous version by bringing the delivery to one average of 10 days and making it cheaper, since Delivery to Italy takes one or two business days on most orders over 30 euro, as well as the customs duties paid directly by the sender, then in this case from the same GearBest.

You will receive a parcel already cleared and the courier will not ask you for any additional commission for delivery. So how does this shipping method work? It's really easy because, once the shipment is started, you will receive a shipping note IT ******* that will allow you to trace the package through the address http://www.sky56.cn/english/track/index.

Shipping between Hong Kong and the Italian airport requires 12 hours and, once you receive the update "Received in Roma Sorting Center", Means that the package has already been cleared and is in the hands of the Italian courier.
