Yes we have been told prices are inflated to ridiculous prices, we going to try using ups for smaller deliveries but again price is ridiculous

I’m finding any shipment I have placed do not ship/tracking does not update until the weekend and then it’s starts to proceed through the DHL network for delivery.

Apart from that prices are still inflated.

DHL is back to normal now, sort of.

Only small weight shipments, under 35kg, and do not pack any box over 20kg. Rates are inflated to arounf $11-12 a kilo, up from $7.

Was a period where two week waits where common, now its back to 3-4 days.

Price is same and fast delivery.
If someone ordering face mask from china carefully via DHL , have some issues on DUTY.

I have ordered face masks shipping from singapore warehouse via DHL, a few weeks ago. Came very fast, in about 2 days to germany. But had to wait some days more because they were in Leipzig for customs clearance
