Maybe you didn't GooGle

Fair point, I did not GooGle correctly
Found a view, but they all have the window. Might have to go with it and deal for now

Super important to use the 2nd capital G
The second capital G is @Minlak personal search servers, he now knows everything about you.

Thanks for all the bananas
Why not AliExpress out of interest?
@Haakon would be able to answer that for you

Might not be the answer you want to hear - but both my previous order (both small items) from Bike-Components sat at Frankfurt airport for about 30 days each. The first order was placed last October, and the latest was mid-January this year.

Funny I was going to post this yesterday, having a whinge.
BIKE24, ordered 25th Jan, just arrived in Aus on 21st Feb, so basically 4 weeks.
A small consolation is that it cleared customs this morning and is on the way to me.
This is a HiBike order, ordered 8th Feb, still on the tarmac as to be expected at only 12 days.
Last month I got one quite quickly, cant remember the exact timeframe, its only a few pages back but it got here quickly then sat in Sydney, processing for over a week

Doesn't seem to be rules or consistency to the timeframe, it can take a bit of time to get here and ages to clear customs, or vice-versa.
It would be nice to jag a fast transit and clearance

The only thing I've had turn up really fast recently was a package from CRC. It was to my door in two days. It got here so fast in fact I didn't really want it that fast (peak UK-strain COVID strain infections time). Unpacked it, checked everything was in there, dumped the bits in the garage to decontaminate, then washed my hands and used the hand sanitiser after handling that one! Haha.

72 hours on some surfaces.
Rubber gloves at the door, open carefully in the garage, spray contents and box with Glen 20 then leave to simmer for 2 days.

First bad experience I’ve had... And it’s still the only place I could actually buy it!
The seller is right - it’s as described. If I’d been on the ball I’d have noticed the photo and description didn’t include the little spacers I needed...
LOL. Lucky mine’s not time sensitive.

Want a shifter without a window, not much available on there without one if I want to buy a full groupset
For the cost I reckon I’ll suck it up for a bit

No guarantee (especially with AliExpress), but Shimano shifters with the gear indicator normally come with a blanking plate to remove it if desired. XT M8000 and SLX M7000 did anyway IIRC...

Hmm didn’t know that. Might be an easy part to get and just go with what I’m looking at
Will probably replace the shifter with an I-Spec one at some point anyway if not
