So many pages and view counts! there's a factor you left out. i think it should be like this: Shenzhen to HK by land/sea: 3hrs (+/- 1hr) HK to singapore flight time:3hrs (+/- 30mins) airport to post ofice should take around 1 day with the admin stuff... China's Post Inefficiency: 10days +++ hahaa The whole trip can be made in a day as HKG-SG got quite a lot of flights. Its the postal service and customs that takes time. Some customs can be quite anal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
