    Post from Thailand to UK?

    This is by no means a blame game on member Kriskouki because he has been fantastic with communication and everything so no head hunting please and I know he's legit because he's on other forums with no issues.

    I Recently bought a set of injectors from Kriskouki, I bought them on the 10th March but still not received anything yet? I have the tracking number and photos its been sent.

    The tracking number just tells me the dispatch date from Thailand which was the 12th March, its now the 21st and i am just wondering if anyone else has had stuff delivered from Thailand before and how long it took? Iv contacted royal mail but they cannot track it from Thailands tracking number so they don't actually know if its in the UK or not yet and when il be expecting it?

    Anyone have a way of finding out where they are?

    If it's gone via sea freight it could be several weeks. Likewise if it's held up in customs that can take a while too.

    You might not hear anything for ages, then you'll get an invoice through for customs charges.

    International mails will be a bit slow because all the packages.. will be going through Customs and such.....so it will soon be showing up at your door..... Been posting thousands of packages across the continent, and none of them were lost or missing..... Please be a bit patient on this.....

    Yeah no worries that's fine mate as I said you've been fantastic so I'm not worried about you not sending.

    Never had anything from Thailand before so didn't know what the crack was.

    Cheers mate

    I bought a horn button for eBay once, came from Thailand. Took about 4 to 5 weeks.

    It'll be a few weeks before you here/see anything. Took a while for me to get a couple of bits sent back the last time I was there.

    9 days is nothing when buying from the far east. I had to wait around 45 days for something from China earlier this year.

    It can easily take 6wks even via air freight then it will sit with customs for a few weeks before they snail mail you a letter stating they are holding your goods to ransom.

    Wouldn't worry about it yet but a tracking number would have been useful.

    They don't always work properly, poor integration between different postal services, or just shoddy implementation in the first place.
    Everything in Thailand is abit of a bodge job, so it's no surprise parcel tracking isn't amazing.

    Usually because once it lands over here Royal Fail give it their own tracking number and completely discard the original one, obviously they don't bother letting anyone know the new tracking number so you have no way of finding out where the ****ing thing is.
