Bruce, your packet was posted on the 17th January, airmail small packet. Stuff usually takes a week or so to get from the UK to most countries outside Europe. Sometimes it is quicker, sometimes not so... I'll put in a claim if it hasn;t turned up in a week or so.
Guys, I have 'lost' several packets in the post recently, one is being looked for in France right now, one th RSA, a couple to the USA etc. So far, I've soaked the damage, as the compensation from the Post Office is paltry, but if normal mail is going to go missing on a regular basis, I am going to have to put my mailing charges up to cover sending the goods insured.
Your collective thoughts on this?
Tim
PS I had a very frustrating conversation with a Post Office operative once, who simply couldn't grasp the fact that I didn't want lots of choices of level of compensation, or 'signed for', or extra this, or various different forms to fill in in case it went astray, or was delayed by 2 days, or 5 days, or on a Saturday. I don't care if they have 28 ways of discribing if something is lost. I just wanted the parcel delivered. And that is it. End of my interest.
Is that SO difficult? Apparently it is....
