Hi lads,
i paid for a moc (on another forum ) on the 14th, i got the reply cheers il ship in a sturdy box and since then nothing.
ive message the lad and asked if he managed to ship it ok and have not gotten a reply, i know its only a couple of weeks (from the us) but im worried if it lands when im away on my hols the po may try to return it? ( its usually less than 2 weeks more like 2=4 days if DB is shipping )
anyone know how long they will hold an item ? especially with it coming from overseas

Hi Andy, I sent a SW item to UK ( from Mexico) and took like 5 weeks to arrive to the new owner ( that`s by regular air-mail) I learn that most packages that are sent overseas from America to Europe/UK take a while because of new regulations of inspections.

Going out from here is a whole lot quicker than coming in. If it was sent on 4/14, it should've arrived already. Even sending it regular first class it should've landed in 2-3 weeks. Not to get you scared or anything. I'd try to get ahold of the seller again to get the custom form number from him.

Hate to say it mate, but if he's read them all and not replied, he might not have sent it. Hope I'm wrong and it shows up while your gone.
