Does anyone know how long deliveries from Goggles4u.com normally take?

Various posts here and elsewhere say they come from Pakistan (!) and can take a while. Can anyone be more specific?

I ordered last weekend and the CCNow web site says my order was 'shipped' on the 8th.

I have ordered specs from Italy, if they come and are okay I will post the website. Has anyone had to pay customs on their specs from USA , Hong Kong or Australia?

Yes they do come from Pakistan and take 3 weeks.

Thanks. I won't hold my breath then.

My Goggles4u package arrived today so it was only a little over a week. Not bad considering that the return address is in Karachi. They seem OK. They'll need a bit of adjustment but nothing that can't be achieved by gentle bending.

Anyone wondering what to expect can see a video here on Youtube. My package was actually sealed with sealing wax and string. I don't think I've ever seen that before.

Is this an okay website to order from? They have nice glasses and will do my prescription, I think. It is about -10.00. Anywhere else that does that strength?

Thanks

I am happy to be corrected but was under the impression that it is illegal to provide glasses with complex prescriptions over the internet.

My understanding is that NHS guidelines dictate that plus or minus 10 diopters constitutes a complex prescription.
