[TR] Shipping parts from the UK

[John Macartney]

Hopefully this may help? I have a very good friend who works at a high level in national security. He obviously can’t give me detailed info about anything, however there’s an operation going on in the UK for a number of weeks that’s been notched up several clicks in the run-up to Christmas. Bottom line is that every single item outbound from the UK is going through even more rigorous checks than previously. All I do know is last week was the 30th Anniversary of the Libyans blowing up Pan Am ‘Maid of the Seas’ over Lockerbie and national security is very twitchy about some form of ‘celebratory’ event. That, together with other stuff to do with Syria and the Russians doing what they’re doing with the Ukraine all adds to the security burdens. Stick with it gents. That much-wanted parcel WILL come through eventually.

 

Cheers, Jonmac

Yep; same here. Thanks.  Sounds like my order probably isn’t lost, just hung up in shipping.  

 

Thanks for the feedback

Yes

An order from Burlen Ltd took over a month to get to North Carolina. I was quite frustrated by that - normally I can get something from the UK quicker than I can get it from the left coast.

Is anybody else having problems lately with very slow shipments from the UK? 

 

I’ve placed several orders for my Stag and have not seen anything for over a month, which is unusual for these suppliers, whom I deal with regularly.  I’m assuming they are hung up in customs or just very slow due to the holidays.

 

TIA,

Frank
