It takes time, i had one despatched monday, still says royal mail had it, i have 2 orders not even sent yet, today was last day today and they close i think until new year aswell, so ill be waiting mid jan for my 2 orders i guess
 
My last Day 7 order was dispatched today, and a couple hours later I learns that it's DHL who are delivering it, so it looks like I'll have gotten all four of my AL orders this year, before Christmas (touch wood).

Noooooooooo………
I thought it was later, but have now realised that I read the 24th-2nd at AoL, and applied it to AL too.

At least it’s only a small number of items I’ll be waiting until Jan for. Last year there were some delayed until mid/late Jan.
 
anyone intl also got their packages lost by ups in Koeln Germany?? Friend of mine got theirs lost, really worried for mine now... no movement since the 13th. Meanwhile my 3rd order went through and already left.

Ugh I'm glad most of this box is still in stock but rip the plastic memories CEs maybe it was even more fate that I didnt get prillya and MCILAL CEs... though if i had maybe my package woulda gone later who knows..

I half think though that distro center is probably just overrun with packages cause holidays rn so maybe they'll find it after but man this is honestly why i wish they had options to hold packages post Christmas. I always try not to order near the holidays for this very reason especially internationally...

Man I hope maybe they go back to fedex shipping after this ;-;

"Lost" lost or just "we'll deliver today between 9 and 13:00" for days in a row?

My first package took over a week from the first announcement to the actual delivery.
According to my neighbour -who had to deal with them a bit more often in the last days- UPS is currently allocating 3 times as many packages per delivery than the truck can physically contend, so while the system happily sends out mails that the package is "coming today" there's no guarantee that it's actually on the truck and even if its on the truck there's no guarantee that it will be delivered the same day.
(Mind you while I had to wait for a week, his package took longer!)

I actually just received the info from UPS this morning that my second package was cleared by customs and that the current delivery date is set for the 21st...
so apparently the system UPS uses doesn't consider time like the rest of us and is actively working on time travel. (double checked the year. It's still 2024)
 
DHL told me that they would deliver my package on Saturday, and they provided a link to see how far away the van was. All Saturday it was parked 5 stops away at the DHL depot in Docklands, and it never moved. Today I got an e-mail from DHL telling it would be delivered today... and the link showed the van at the depot in Docklands... 18 stops away. That didn't change until the package was delivered a couple of hours ago, when the image changed from the 18 stops away map, to the recipient's be-slippered feet.

My package had been stuck in DE for almost a week with only delivery ETA updates (just saying "transit delay") no actual location update until it updated with "merchandise missing. UPS will contact the sender" just like my friend's. Luckily, a few hours later it said it was dispatched from DE and otw to destination facility. I looked into it and apparently 90% of the time they've "lost" a package it's just that the label was damaged and couldnt be read by the automated sorting machines so they get set aside to be manually sorted and get reprinted labels.

Somehow my order #3 packages which took a week in transit in the US is scheduled to deliver to me today and so are those lost packages for order #2 that were stuck in DE for over a week and have been in the US for a just single day ahahaa. Guess they expedited it considering it was supposed to be delivered a week ago.
