DHL

I bought an item from seller in USA, it was shipped on 4th May by DHL, the last tracking update was on 17th May which said it was en route to Australia, there has been no tracking since then.

“StarTrack” have acknowledgement of the parcel but haven’t received it yet.

It seems to be taking an unusually long time, ETA for it says 11th June, but it’s just an estimate (It’s not a food item so should get through customs AOK).

Not sure what the problem is, its not due till the 11th of June, so could be stuck on a slow boat via Tasmania (my apology to any Tasmanians)

If it was going via Tassie, they could drop it off on the way.

So they've still got a fortnight to get it to you.

I’m assuming so, a bit hard to say, probably in around a week hopefully.

Some international deliveries seem to be affected by the situation in Gaza — with rerouted freight and heightened security. Which factors may affect international parcels once they’ve landed in Australia… well, that’s another story.

Australia Post tracking is now showing as delivery by Monday and/or Tuesday of next week. Yahoo…!

Wasn't DHL who the budgie used to send the cat to Africa back in the 80's? (tv ad)
