I ordered some flavours from the Perfumer's Apprentice on the 2nd of February and paid for First Class International Shipping $20.45.
It was shipped out on the 4th of February. It arrived this morning, 26th of February.
I don't know what others think but 22 days to come from the USA is hardly what I would call First Class!

Was there any reason you ordered from the US ... specific flavours ? You can get a good selection in the UK already

That is slooooooooooow Lobey.
In fairness I've normally received any direct TPA orders from them in 7-10days. They charge enough for shipping but do have several flavours I like, that UK Vendors don't stock.

All post seems to be getting slower... not sure if it's because I'm becoming a grumpy 'al beggar (my wife is from oop north) but didn't first class RM generally arrive next day?!

My parcel was not held up by Customs as there had been no tampering of the box or the lables that covered the box.
I went to TPA because I needed some Koolada and it was not available anywhere else. So I just bought that and 6 other flavours that I needed.
According to the emails that I sent back and forth from TPA, some mails take up to 6 weeks to go through and unless you pay for a tracked parcel, if anything else goes missing in the post they will not do anything to try to trace it.
I tried to find an email address of the company that had picked up my parcel from TPA but could not and TPA would not get an email address for me. I must say that after dealing with British, European and other American Vendors and the high regard they have for their customer relationship, I was somewhat taken aback by TPA's responces.
