Within 2 weeks usually the norm like you say  :-\

Had a few bits from the states arrive recently without delay  :)

But waiting on another that's taking forever - that's definitely down to the seller being a t!t though  ::) :knuppel2: :tickedoff:

Did you get tracking numbers off the sellers ? depends on shipping method but USPS often give a tracking number maybe email the sellers and ask  :-\

Same here  :(

I've been waiting for some items for just over three weeks now  :'(

I know to all the guys well so I know they aren’t giving me a Jackanory....

I know one of the items has been sat " awaiting clearance" for a week now......hope they didn’t get the sniffer dog on that parcel.......can dogs pick up the smell of a 12" black Latex member  >:D
I might actually build a bike this year instead of just hoarding parts :)

i asked one of the sellers yesterday for the tracking number and he said hed thrown out the details as hed assumed the item had arrived.hes a 100% positve egay seller so im hoping its all ok,its just weird to have two items taking so long

Maybe there's more parcels to deal with now since christmas is only 4 weeks away  :shocked:

Could be slowing things down a bit  :-\

Had mosta the stuff delivered on time recently from the states, even a couple of bits within a week but still waiting on a particular package posted on 30th Oct. Maybe some of this stuff got held up in the strike backlog also.

Sent Atari Tom some bars other week to Long Island NY all the way from sexy Hull, he pm'd about 18 hours after they were collected saying they'd arrived. DHL. Good old German efficiency. An almost irrelevant story....

See Pete ( Quadrophenia ) , I was round there last week & he had loads of stuff and none of it was his !  :LolLolLolLol:

I think he has a mate at UK customs who sends anything remotely Old School BMX related onto him ( for a small fee of course )  :2funny:
