The absolute best (when the vendor has ePacket, which is like the FedEx of China) is 7-12 days.
But even then, you need to expect 2-5 days for the vendor to actually package and ship the item.
So you're much better off quoting customers 3-4 weeks. If 1-3 days is all that works for your niche, you probably need a new product, unfortunately.
