Sometimes miracles happen!
« on: August 24, 2012, 10:04:51 PM »
I bought some g2 items from Binkyfinder on ebay back in mid June.  The items were posted on 21 June and we waited patiently.  It got to a deadline and we gave up because it was over 7 weeks now and i was issued a refund. 

When i returned from my work trip this week i had something special sitting on my desk...

I was more then happy to send that refund back double time! 

So for standard airmail - letter method - it took just over 2 months!  *shakes head in shame at Aus Post*

Its hard to know where the delay occured, whether USPS or Aus Post.  Sounds like the package has come by sea.   
Great it arrived though.

I'm still finding an average of 2-3 weeks for international purchases. I hope this doesn't change too much because after 3 weeks I start to get twitchy :P

I am so glad your package finally arrived home safely Spinky!!

Postage times seem to be all over the place lately. :huh: It's hard to say what can exactly be holding things up.

I've had the same issue - packages which usually arrive in 10 days are taking 3 weeks or more to get here (same sender). Its really frustrating!
