Anyone in UK expecting stuff from Europe?

Post by neorichieb1971 »

I have a set of MVS carts coming from Sweden and a PCB from Germany. Both are well over due. Does anyone know if the Volcano has caused a backlog or anything like that? Its been 10 working days since purchase.


Thanks for any info.

regards,

Richie.

It's hit and miss for stuff coming into and out of the UK at the moment - I've had some stuff come quickly and others take 3 times as long.

Maybe the guys cheaped out and went with the cheapest shipping option available. It is rather annoying waiting this long. I had the games arrival timed with my days off. I'm already at work again and i'm still waiting.

I waited three weeks for stuff from the UK, so I would guess it would be the same the other way around

I had an Item come over from Germany last week with no problems. Either your sellers taking his time to send it or he's taken the cheapo option for postage

Its two seperate sellers.. Had it been just one I would have been more suspicious. The Swedish one said it will arrive mid week this coming week, so two or three more days. The other guy said he would make an inquiry on Friday, but thats gone now.

It's all over the place, some of the freebies I sent out took forever to get delivered abroad.

Swedish stuff game, German stuff still waiting.

My Strikers 1945 2 kit is tracked from the US and is in Bedford already after just 5 days. I'm going to get a customs bill for that one.
