Arpy 4,145 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 There was no scan history for the 5th but it was shipped on that day so it was only just entering the system. Then it did that weird thing where it's now displaying it was in Melbourne, then back to LA and now it's in Melb again, I haven't a clue what's going on...

I can just see future scientists boring a hole in the amber and sticking the package into your petrified hands. Then the corner of your mouth slowly twitches and you crack a smile still all encased in amber. But seriously the postal service seems particularly slow this season and it's really frustrating, especially when we the fanatics are awaiting something akin a Holy Grail in the mail. Finnish postal service made an announcement that this year the Christmas rush is so heavy they'll have to deliver mail on weekends (which those silly buggers do not do in normal circumstances) as well and there have been serious delays in the mail deliveries in the past few weeks. crumbs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is I already received notifications about those facilities before the London one. So it definitely returned to the US. And then a couple days later it was on the LA airport again and got to the UK on Wednesday. It took a couple of days longer for it to arrive. So it is a different situation.

Richard Penna 3,684 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Yes, that's certainly an interesting definition. Is it even legal to do that? (Not that I'm complaining... I begrudge paying RM £8 for the privilege of taking another £8 from me, and neither providing parking nor card processing facilities.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Giftheck 916 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I have no idea. The way it works is that you would have to pay VAT only, if it's checked (as long as it's within a certain amount - I think it's somewhere in the range of £20-£130 - lower than the lower limit and you pay nothing but above the upper limit you're subject to import duty as well) but it's based on the nearest equivalent in the UK's market. Good luck figuring that one out, they don't sell things like that over here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omen II 1,235 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I ordered my copy on the day it went up for sale and received it (in London) on Saturday, although I passed it straight to Father Christmas so will not get to hear any of it until Christmas Day at the earliest. I got my credit card bill today and the charge is a mammoth £67.25, but I am sure it will be worth it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently mine hasn't even arrived at a sorting facility, despite being shipped a week ago. There has been no tracking update in my case since December 1st (when it was still in the US). Didn't even know that there would be tracking information once it left the US until I saw some posts here. This is probably the longest I have ever waited for one of these US releases.
