I receive notification my order shipped 12/7 from England yet no package yet. With the season and all I expect this posting will result in the package arriving Tuesday.

Is that 12th of July, or 7th December ?

Either way, I'd have thought it should have arrived by now going by my e-bay sales (sent, and received).

My last shipment form Germany took an unusual 4 weeks! Just stay patient ;-)

December 7.

Small envelope that I expect will show up next week.

I'll contact the vender next week. I've seen posting here and before the thread falls off, the package arrives

Depending on what is in the package it can "stall" in customs for a while. When my work ships transatlantic we can pick up off the dock in 14-17 Days. But again we are picking up off dock and we have a customs agent dedicated to our shipments.

I've just had a letter from the USA turn up in the UK yesterday after being posted on the 5th of Dec it's just the time of the year

Normally about a week and a half, but this time of year 3 weeks isnt unusual.

Have an order that got posted in England Nov 29…. 4 weeks can be quite normal.

2mm by airmail, not so bad. Surface mail, about two weeks past the time when you start wondering if the order is lost.

Col Durnford25 Dec 2017 6:32 p.m. PST

How did you know it was 2mm? Did the "small envelope" give it away?.

Sound like I should expect it in two weeks.


Thanks all,

Vince
