Hi Paz. I'm pleased to say that I got my items this morning. I ordered on 27 Nov so from China to the UK that is a really fast service and postage was free. I am happy and will definitely use their direct website again. All the best Malcolm

Thanks Paz. That's helpful. I got a confirmation and tracking number yesterday evening for my order using Royal Mail (free standard shipping). I will post how long it actually takes when I eventually get it. All the best Malcolm

I don't know what CR express of the other delivery options are. Typically I have waiting about 3 weeks for delivery to the UK from China with standard shipping

I messaged them through their Aliexpress page and they confirmed that www.wutaleather.com is their website. I have just placed an order so hopefully it should all be ok. Even with the Black Friday deals on Aliexpress their website was cheaper and I got a discount and free shipping to the UK. I will update when I get the parcel.

Thanks Martin. I will have a look at the website you mention. Like the idea of having list of suppliers.

I would love to see how to approach a bag with a metal frame (Gladstone type case). All the best
