I've sent three separate packages so far to my lady. Most of the pictures of these gifts are on my Facebook if you'd like to have a look.

I'd like to get a list of companies that people have used to send things successfully to their lady in China.

I'll get the ball rolling :-

I've ordered roses and chocolate from http://www.chinaroses.com
I also ordered fancy chocolate from http://www.zchocolat.com/ which is expensive but good quality, one for special occasions I think.

If anyone else has links of companies they have used please reply. I'd like to move this to the "useful link" forum once we have a good list made up.

Thanks,

Ronan.

Hey Ronan, I too have used chinaroses and they were great. I got pictures of the roses I sent my lady for Christmas. They really needed a wide angle lens to get her whole smile in the frame... she was very happy.

It seems many of these beautiful women have not had flowers and other gifts from their love interest. I guess in the west we just take it as an every day thing. Maybe a little gift will go a long way toward showing her how much you value her love.

I sent two letters to Beihai last year and they took almost three weeks to get there. Last month I send a package to Chengdu and it weighed about 6 pounds and cost $60 to mail it but it was there in four days. One would think it should be the other way around. So even if I have a letter to send I will be sending it inside a box.

Hey thanks for the Chinaroses link. I see that they have a photo return service... How cool is that! Getting some nice photographs of your lady receiving the flowers you sent her would be priceless!

I have used http://www.lebkuchen-schmidt.com/. They have German Gingerbread specialties and som other sweets. I have ordered once until now. It hasn't arrived yet. It takes up to 19 days the state in their delivery papers. Shipping for 5kg (inclusive package material) costs 37 euro.

I sent flowers from http://www.chinaflowernet.com - they seemed to have a nice selection.

I have used both the Chnlove service and Chinaroses. I like chinaroses because of the pictures that were taken. My girlfriend had such a big smile in them and of course did the Asian pose haha.

Well Chinaroses gave me a nasty taste in my mouth. Chinaflowernet came flawless.

I remember one time that Arnold gave an answer to sending roses to the ladies, and for the life of me I cant find his answer again its about sending a dozen roses and that she is supposed to keep 11 and give one to someone, her mother or whoever, but was wondering, if the mother has passed does she keep the whole dozen or does she pass that one on to say her older sister or to a best friend. I checked way back in the ChnLove Forum and also the FB and cant find what he wrote, so just had to ask again, so that this time I can remember. Hate to hear what Chong will make of this...LOL

Yanfang showed me the roses I sent her through QQ vidcam...the price is much cheaper than paying for pictures...just a thought!

Well I sent a nice vase with roses and babies breath to celebrate the weekend we both decided we are falling in love. That was on
a Saturday. Then on Sunday we both agreed to be exclusive and would not write to anyone but each other. The pictures of her
receiving those roses are priceless! We have not tried anything else yet using email or web cams since she does work long hours
and a long week and does not own her own computer. I think next we will try a phone call using the translator from her agency!

David , so you decided you were in Love on Qing / Ming Festival Day ? That certainly is one day everybody will remember . Hehehe
Heck , why not ? There are after all 364 day's in the year to do that . You don't want to count New Year's day to that list , because , most likely one is too drunk to make that kind of decission on that day , right? Happy for you , David . Let me see that BIG smile .

Rob how did that cost you?, i want to send something that's about a kilo in weight and I imagine costs from the UK and Ireland should be comparable.
