They normally deliver to your physical address, once they have got payment for duties and VAT

That is normal express DHL not Global DHL

@kimbo Did you package ever arrive? Did you get it by normal post or was it a DHL guy that dropped it off?

Hi.

It sitting at customs, apparently they have quit a backlog. I did contact them and that is the story they gave me, PostNL seems to be the best at the moment, it it is just on our customs side that thing fall down

4 months backlog? Have you made your peace with never getting the stuff?
My FastTech order hasn't shipped yet. Seriously considering cancelling it.

 

[kimbo]

umm four months?

 

[spiv]

I think that I may have gotten confused. It's an old thread, your messages were from April.
I'm guessing that's a new order you made that's been at customs a few weeks maybe?

 

[kimbo]

yes

The April one also sat at customs for almost a month

 

[spiv]

And how was the post office getting it delivered to you? Relatively decent?
DHL Global Mail does in fact hand off to the post office. It seems as if they wash their hands of your shipment and leave it to customs and SAPO to do what they feel like doing.
Can you still track it when it's with SAPO?

 

[Raindance]

Yip, SAPO has a new mobile tracking app available. This is where I would type "You can find it here" if i knew how...

Just use your intentional tracking number in the SAPO space http://www.parceltrack.co.za/ or https://www.17track.net/en they track it all the way from beginning to end, if you get an error for SAPO it just means it is not in the country yet

Regarding Previously mentioned Post Office tracking app, I can now confidently type that you can find it here.

Thanks @Blu_Marlin

 

[spiv]

Thanks everyone.
My order is probably only going to ship this coming Monday so will keep an eye on it with all the tools you guys suggested.
I wonder if I can go pick it up from the depot at ORT? I stay pretty close and went and got my Kickstarter edition Pebble from there when it was sent here.

 

[SAVapeGear]

Yip.You can collect from JIMC.Once it cleared customs.You call them and ask if they have it with them and then drive there and collect.You will save about 2 weeks

 

[spiv]

Thanks @SAVapeGear! That's what I'll do. I'm too impatient for it to try make make its way all the way to Sandton.
