Shipping woes

I completely understand Muddy as I ordered the same train through Japamart and the Japan auctions but before you did. My package was accepted by Japan Post on April 14th and is still there. I wish I had the train but no big deal as its not like I don't have other trains to play with. Big Grin

It must have been just before this date that there planes stopped because my Black Cat train that I also got from the Japan Auctions through Japamart was accepted by the Japan Post on April 4th and was delivered to me on April 14th. So even though it took longer, 10 days than normal EMS takes I was happy it arrived in these crazy times.

Also I ordered an item through Amazon USA which I was fooled on because I wasn't aware what I purchased was coming from China but I was happy that it was shipped through DHL as they accepted the package on April 14th and it arrived 3 days later on the 17th.

I am also waiting on another item that I was fooled on again from AliExpress. I found a seller that had masks and within the listing they said that the USA orders from a location in the States. Wanting to make sure I contacted them to ask the question that they in fact are shipping from the States through the United States Postal Service and they said yes. They shipped very quickly and when the Tracking they gave wasn't one that the USPS uses I contacted them to ask why and they gave me a USPS number a couple days later. Of course my suspicions where that they are lying as I would have not bought from them knowing they are coming from China especially since I don't think the US is accepting shipment from China. That package was shipped on April 13th and the USPS says "Pre-Shipment Info Sent to USPS, USPS Awaiting Item" since then. I am hoping for the best but not expecting it. Happily AliExpress has a good refund policy which I can ask for if I don't receive my items by April 18th.

On another note: I shipped out 5 packages to a member here at BPT's who lives in the UK, all at the same time, well one day apart, 3 one day 2 the next. He received 4 of those packages but one is in limbo at the Chicago International Distribution Center. Packages were mailed out on....March 16th and the last one has been sitting at Chicago since March 18th. Yes, thats right since March 18th. So shipping everywhere is disrupted.

How about anyone else...Do you have a Covid19 Shipping story you can share with us?
