How long could it take to arrive my home.

David Quental
Hello all again,

now another question, but mainly for the european members of this
mailing list.

how long could package take until arrive at my address ?

I am just asking it because at 22nd of December my family will go out of
home so nobody there to receive package.

Last information from package tracking is this one:

International Dispatch, December 12, 2009, 9:26 am, ISC SAN FRANCISCO (USPS)

Any help will be useful.

Best 73 to all.

Hi David,

Again I am in the same position. Waiting for a package send by Elecraft via USPS express service. Shipped on 3rd of december and still not here. According to the tracking details it took USPS about 6 days to cross the ocean :(.

I had this exprerience in the past. The logistics team of elecraft should not send UPS preferably. That takes just a few days in my experience.

Lots of delay are caused by slow custom operation here in The Netherlands as well.

Hope to receive my parts next week....

You might have to wait some time David... See
http://www.astromag.co.uk/images/pf.gif which will give you some idea of
how slow USPS can be - at this time of year it might be slower! I can't
remember which of the USPS rates I opted for, I think it was the lowest
cost one. Parcel Force in the UK send out a letter asking for payment,
which slows the process significantly. By comparison, the fastest UPS
delivery option can have your goods on the doorstep in the UK in 4 days.

Hello all,

tks for answers.


Well, I am not worry to receive it, after all I am out of home till next
April, enough time to receive it in meanwhile, major problem now
concerns to my family there in Portugal, they will be not at home for
some time. But according to answers it will take some time, so no problem.

I choosed the cheaper way because of reason in last sentence, no need to
use the fastet UPS if I am far from home :) :) :)

About Dick PA3CW I hope that he will receive his K3 soon.

Best regards to all es tks.

T6AG

PS: yes Lionel, I will stay for more 4 months in Afeghanistan. There are
a lot of frenchs here, nice people.

Forward to all readers of the Elecraft list:

-Ordered a second K3 on december 10th on their web site
-Immediate acknowledgment from them by email
-Few hours later a message from UPS for tracking
-Material will be delivered tomorrow morning here in Paris

What can I request more ? (ordered 10th, delivered 14th)

Then,
*************************************
Hi David,
First what was your choice for shipment ?
Each time I ordered something to Elecraft my shipment choice is UPS
Worldwide Express,....expensive a bit...yes....
but I'm delivered on 3 to 4 days maximum, here in France.
It seems referring to your call-sign you are in Afghanistan......may be a
longer shipment process....?

It took UPS express 34 hrs to go from Elecraft to my home.
(Pretty quick I'd say)

The 'normal way' was about 10 days.

Re: How long could it take to arrive my home.

I know that UPS is the only fast way to get things over quickly to EUR. Therfor dont let the term USPS ' Express'  mislead you, it takes weeks for parts to arrive. I have a package sitting at the airport waiting for clearance. Arrival in NL (Ater 6 days) on 9 december and due for delivery, according to latest info, around 19/19.  So the complete shipment took a month (that is calles express)  I did have good experiences with UPS in the past to, just a couple of days. Worth the additional charge!

73,
