I intend to travel to China , first Beijing , I am leaving my charger at home as I have enough batteries to shoot for 3-4 days, I want to buy some small third party chargers from ShenZen , will those arrive at the hotel within that time frame ?

Are China Postal Services up to the task ?

Eventually , is there a place in Beijing where I could get such chargers for 14 pounds ( equivalent Nikon mh-21 )

Anybody knows ?

Thanks.

I think probably not. The postal service in China is not designed for point to point transmission.
Take your charger with you.

D3 batteries, chargers are getting difficult to source. In the Mongkok area in HK there are many camera shops. Some are excellent and have good stock with excellent staff. Be aware there are also some rogue shops that are small and disreputable! You will see what I mean if you go there.

Try here Wing Shing Photo Supplies. 91-95 Fa Yuen Street, Mongkok.
They have helpful staff and if you tell them what you want will get it for you in 2-3 days if it is not in stock.

Good luck.
Shops near the Harbour and on HK Island are easier to find and get to but are more expensive.
