Cheap postage=slow delivery!

[michellebartley]

I paid very cheap postage for an item from the UK Just a $1.60. It was sent on the 8th October and I have bought from this seller a lot and they are good to deal with. Item still hasnt been delivered yet. I have told seller and they said that it was not the norm. So I am thinking its delayed because of the low post cost which is dirt cheap. Mmmmm.....

Some items I get from the UK only take 5-7 days and others can take 4 weeks.

I think sometimes they can go to wrong place in sorting before being redirected correctly.

The cost of the postage is not the issue....what service did the seller use?

Maybe the seller has subsidised the postage?

Three weeks from the UK is not unheard of, although I have just had a parcel from the UK sent with the GSP and it took about 10 days.

It didnt say what service. I'd assume seller subsidised post cost. No track number either.

Yeah 2-3 months on the boat. (Depending on how hard they row)

But don't you get rats on boats? Won't they eat the parcel?
