Reposting since people here are being caught by this

Priority shipping on Gearbest has been shut down temporarily due to too many orders.
"Dear customers,

After “11.11 Promotion” and “Black Friday Promotion November”, the number of orders has risen sharply. The shipping capacity of major logistics companies has been limited. In the meantime, the Customs has stepped up spot checks and the risk of batches of dedicated parcels such as DPD being seized by the Customs increased. To ensure that customers avoid long waiting, Gearbest decided to temporarily shut down some part of DPD line. Specific recovery time waiting for notice.the product will be shipped as original shipping methods,and Priority line will chose for few days .
Substitution of logistics is Europe Railway Registered. Aging: 25 - 35 working days"

I would take that train

2017-12-12 00:51:11 UTC  

maybe if I lose my job

2017-12-12 00:52:00 UTC  

I don't think it's passenger but then again I doubt they care as long as you have papers

2017-12-12 00:52:12 UTC  

well either that one or trans siberian

2017-12-12 00:52:19 UTC

And lots of autism batteries

2017-12-12 00:52:43 UTC  

and explore the train from city to city

2017-12-12 00:52:44 UTC  

I wonder if you can take a boat from vladivostok to japan

2017-12-12 00:52:51 UTC  

Yeh

2017-12-12 00:53:26 UTC  

It's expensive though, and questionably legal working with two countries you don't know the language of.

2017-12-12 00:54:00 UTC  

GB are using it it's not expensive

2017-12-12 00:54:03 UTC  

I know both 😏

2017-12-12 00:55:00 UTC  

It's probably their least used option and the one least likely to be hit by """The Customs""" as they call it

2017-12-12 00:55:05 UTC  

Make a business guiding people through there then.

2017-12-12 00:55:41 UTC  

Imagine how many yuppies would eat up the opportunity to travel in the longest least convenient way possible.

2017-12-12 00:56:39 UTC  

```
Well Shukan Jitsuwa (Oct 27) reports that if the two countries see eye-to-eye, the world's longest railway, the 9,297-long Trans-Siberian, might someday be extended by bridge across the 7-kilometer wide Strait of Tartary (also known as the Mamiya Strait) from the Asian mainland to Sakhalin and eventually, via a 42-kilometer-long bridge or undersea tunnel to Wakkanai in Hokkaido.
```

2017-12-12 00:59:22 UTC  

Never going to happen, japs have way too much riding on thier boatbuilding and also hate the idea of a direct land route to the mainland.

2017-12-12 01:00:04 UTC  

ah fuck

2017-12-12 01:00:08 UTC  

I can't believe you've done this

2017-12-12 01:00:30 UTC  

Not to mention that would force them to actually work out who owns what there.

2017-12-12 01:00:31 UTC  

that'd be neat

2017-12-12 01:00:35 UTC  

but who does trains now
