There was a recent announcement regarding this:
Yes, other Sellers are affected. What exactly do you want to hear?

Our shipper is DHL, we have checked with our rep. They indicate all operations for them are normal.
Sort Of
- They are only flying into Hong Kong
- They are doing a fast turn
- All personnel are staying on the aircraft

There’s quite a bit of mis-information going on here, but these are the facts:
- There are plenty of provinces producing goods, the country is not shut down.
- Most (if not all) seaports in China are online, and the FCL rates are fantastic due to lowered demand.
- Don’t use DHL unless you don’t care about your margins. If you need a FF, ping me.

I was told factories will remain closed until March. But of course thats only if the virus gets contained, which they are not close to doing as of now.

I was told that they would re-open in February originally and now there is no ETA at all. I would suggest everyone prepare for at minimum 2-3 months delay at best.

we have orders sitting waiting for production. The first order had a ETA ready date originally of 03/25.
Now they have no idea. Said maybe May if everything goes good. They have no employees, even if employees start to return, they have to be quarantined for 14 days.
And… could get worse.

YES. The worst part is that the communist chinese government doesn’t want their people talking in email about Corona Virus and other things the government is doing. So, it’s hard to get a direct answer. But, yes, expect delays. It’s not good. Could set back weeks to months
