Hi every1, i live in the usa, texas, and i ordered a light on ebay and it was shipped out on the 10th of october, it said its coming from china... so im just wondering how long it usually takes for shippingthat far away... Also, this kinda scares me, i just noticed i spelled my street address wrong, by 1 letter, i spelled kinsay and its suppose to be kinsey, but everything else is right, like the zip code and everything, do u think this might get lost now?

I wouldn't worry about the spelling mistake on the street name. Delivery time depends entirely on how the light is being shipped. Is it on a boat or a plane? If it's on a boat, it could take many weeks.

ok thats exactly what my girlfiend said, and im not sure how it is shipped, buti think i remember seeing something saying it should take 5-9 business days, which it has been alot longer, ill just try to stay patient, my main concern was the misspelling of the address, thnx for the reply

If all you did was substitute an "a" for an "e" in the street name, I wouldn't worry. If your name, street address number, zip code, etc. are correct, you're good to go. I'm betting it'll get to you eventually - shipping from China is always hit or miss. I have some friends that run an LED lighting company and get all their product from China. Their shipping times vary greatly even when they order the same product and have it shipped the same way. Things just work differently over there, if you know what I mean. Sucks to wait though, I know.
