I don't think tracking works outside of the states when going to other countries not sure. I would email LLL and ask them about it..but keep in mind too the post offices here from the 1st to now are swamped with people getting gifts out for Christmas.

I think this package will never make it to Canada. Should I ask the sender to send me another one or ask him a refund? Im in the same boat. I dont think Ill receive my package this month. It was finally shipped from SAE via regstered mail and USPS is now not updating registered parcels for international countries. SAE told me those are guys trying to divert the users to upgrade to express mail service -EMS which offers all tracking info and is twice as expensive. So my year end holidays are ruined already...

Josh500 1,615 Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 I'll probably get it today. When did I order it from LLL? Exactly 1 week ago. Reading some of the horror stories here, I really feel lucky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh500 1,615 Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Yeah, I got it today!!! Christmas is here. I ordered it directly from LLL on Thursday, December 15th, around 4 pm, and I received it today, December 23rd, around noon. It took just 8 days for it to reach me in London. Kudos to LLL, and all the postal services involved. Richard Penna 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisAfonso 186 Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Mine's apparently stuck in customs in Vienna for 10 days now, the message of the most recent tracking update from the 13th is the last one before the "cleared by customs" on all my previous LLL orders. Don't expect it before January now, a bit inconvenient as I also ordered both HA sets for some quality holidays listening... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh500 1,615 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 Listening to it now... Sound quality of "The Lost World" is noticeably better. Love it!

Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 The first thing I listened to was the full version of Rescuing Sarah. Oh, how lovely to hear it in its entirety! That being said, does anyone feel like Rescuing Sarah feels a little wimpy compared to other tracks on the album? I want those pounding drums to blast away through my speakers, but the track seems to lack a severe oomph after the end of On the Glass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marian Schedenig 8,193 Posted December 24, 2016 Share Posted December 24, 2016 I will listen to both scores in their entirety first.

Next thing you'll be telling us your booklet has teeth as well! Yeah, I got lucky this time. But I remember many purchases where the cases WERE broken and damaged: Hook, Empire of the Sun, Rosewood (if I remember correctly), etc. Since my purchase of A.I. last year, I'm telling the folks at LLL explicitly to package my CDs so securely no harm will come to them. What do you know, seems to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
