My last order was 22 days from shipping until it landed through the door wih e packet shipping. So it didn't really work for me either Q. Placed an order on Monday, shipping confirmation e mail today and have tried the e packet method again. So we'll see what happens this time, if it takes another 22 days they can stick their e packet up the dragons arse and I'll pop in an extra couple of drip tips for the postage money.

Had me in stitches after reading that. well done

Lol. Nothing wrong with being a little light hearted now and then mxethey. Glad to hear it gave you a good old chuckle.

Stocktake and wasn't it the DragonBoat Festival recently?? I have use epacket a couple of times and had no problems what so ever? Luck... maybe? but i remember ordering them and waiting 3/4/5/6/7/8/9 weeks... the last couple i have had used epacket arrived within 7 days both times
Q i do feel your pain though......

No pain lee It's not as if I'm desperate for any of it, its just that for once everything was in stock so I thought I'd try the e-packet out, I normally dont bother and it arrives 2-3 weeks later, no big deal, but most people say the e-packet is wonderful, well not for me it isn't.

Fair do's Q

I must have used Royal Mail next day a few thousand times over the years. Only let me down once, the item was delivered 2 hours late. Yet someone I spoke to thought it was rubbish.
The point I'm making is that in any postal system there are hundreds of variables. And China is the biggest exporter in the world, by some distance. epacket is very cheap, costs are just above signed for delivery in the UK. So don't expect a uniform service from it.

Got my Fasttech delivery today, 7 days after shipping. Highly Impressed.

Put an order in last Wednesday - arrived today (Tuesday) - the only delays I have had with e-packet are when they have been stuck at Langley customs for a few days

Yes, my last e-packet took 7 or 8 days too. Quite pleased overall.

Quick update, ordered 19th June (all in stock), dispatched 24th June, arrived 30th June
So all in all it WAS a quick transaction, BUT how much quicker would it have been if FT had sent it on the day I ordered

Well, nine days from posting in China until goods dropped through the letter box this morning using e packet shipping. Thirteen days quicker than my last order so much happier this time.
