I had that happen to a Driveshaft from Tom Wood once.Quote:

Tom had long made another for me that had been fitted and was well used when the 'first' one finally arrived.
FWIW it appears DHL might be using their own planes to fly stuff from Europe atm?
You can only use their Express service, not economy.
My Ashcroft order had a waybill raised on the 31/3, cleared customs (changed planes?) at 1500 in Singapore on the 1/4 and cleared customs here in Sydney at 1400 on the 2/4
And 6 days later I had the packages [emoji23]
Yes DHL are using there own planes and taking there time to deliver from the UK.
Ordered a compressor on the Friday(thursday UK time) so that I could receive early the following week.
Noooo.:no2:
Rang them the following Friday to see when it will be arriving, (it had left London). She couldnt say as it was
an all stops plane trip.:thumbsdown:)
Got here the following Tuesday, :arms:
Be prepared for a 2 week delivery from the UK for the for see able future.

I've had similar with Tom. Parts from Tom then were normally 5 working days to my door in Sydney, but one of the shafts went AWOL. He was so good, he made and sent another shaft and then ages later the missing shaft turned up! I could never speak more highly of Tom.Quote:

did you have to send the missing shaft back when it arrived?Quote:

That's why I can't speak highly enough of the bloke.
