International airmail (USA to UK) - how long?

SophieCat

Hi,

I bought some things from the USA, which were posted on Thurs 13 Sep. I still haven't received them. In the past, parcels have usually taken 5-7 days to reach me. If you take out the weekends, it's been 8 working days. Has anybody waited this long, or longer, for a package to arrive from the USA?

Please tell me I'm worrying over nothing

Thank you

I wouldn't worry yet. I've had items take 4 weeks to arrive.

I'm currently waiting for 2 items posted from the US on 13 September. I order from there quite regularly and 2 weeks is about the average so I would'nt worry just yet.

I've waited as little as 8 days and as long as 20 days. Give it a little longer

Thank you all. You've put my mind at rest

Just bear in mind, that if you purchased using Paypal, you have a 45 day window from when you purchased to lodge a dispute.
