How long does my order take from when I place it online to receiving the delivery?

In general, every single order will go through the following 2 steps prior to you receiving your order:-

Step 1: Order Processing Time

If the stock availability of the SKU you ordered shows Availability:-

Processing Time 1-2 Business Days - means that the item is in stock at Mwave at that time, and only after the payment has been confirmed, could take up to 2 Business days to process for shipping or pickup

Processing Time within 24-48 Hrs - means that the item is currently in stock with our suppliers; and only after the payment has been confirmed, should take 24 to 48 hours (during business hours) to process for shipping or pickup

Processing Time within 1-3 days - means that the item is currently in stock with our suppliers; and only after the payment has been confirmed, should take 1 to 3 business days (or 24 to 72 hours) to process for shipping or pickup

Step 2: Order Delivery Time

The length of the delivery time will depend on your delivery address/final destination, and the type of delivery service you choose.
Currently, our delivery partners are as below:
