Reply With QuoteWhy is it stuff ordered on ebay out of China arrives faster than stuff despatched from your own capital city? - Maybe it's got to do with time zones or a parallel postal vortex or something....

I order electrical goods every day, some urgent, most not. Guess which orders don't arrive the next day! Refer Murphy's Law!
I do use Aus Air Ex a hell of a lot and they are normally pretty good. Again, Refer Murphy's Law!

I know how you feel, I ordered my winch tray on Thursday morning first thing from TJM, they said it was in the TJM store in Brisbane would have it first thing Friday, so I could pick it up on the way back from work. When I phoned to check if it was there, they said it would only arrive next week on Wednesday "because that's how long it takes" - the TJM factory store is about 10 minutes from where I work.
On the other hand, I ordered an EGT gauge and thermocouples from Aurberins in the USA on the 31st May, and got it on the 5th June.
Weird how something 10 minutes away will take almost a week yet something on the other side of the world takes 5 days.

Surely it can't be just chucked in a random pile. With all this modern tracking and all that they should know whereabouts in the depot it is.
