Finally broke down and bought a stand for my digital microscope that holds it vertically and is adjustable. Bought it off Amazon. After the order was complete I got a conformation email indicating the delivery would be between four and six weeks. That seemed a little strange until I looked closer. It is being shipped from Hong Kong, yep, I should have paid more attention. I won't be holding my breath until it gets here.
Rest in Peace

Somebody on this site bought a USB microscope from somebody in China about a year or so ago and he got it and it was fine. So, you might get your order just fine. I hope so.

Ive ordered things from Hong Kong many times and many other locations and have never had any problems. Shipping time can vary anywhere between a few weeks to a few months

Well, I will withdraw my concern about shipments from Hong Kong. Got my microscope stand in less than a week, yahoo. Stand is ok, holder is not large enough for my microscope, but I can make it work. For what I paid I'm satisfied.

Good to hear. For me, Hong Kong is a go-to source for a whole lot of stuff like that.

I have bought quite a few adapter rings from China (hong Kong mainly) addresses, all with no issues, most arrive within 10-14 days.

I've had stuff take the full 21 days and I've had stuff come in faster to TX than from LA. Go figure...
