04/28/2016 06:00 Dispatch from outward office of exchange

Based on how long Registered SAL packages have taken in the past I would of expected to see it dispatch inward office of exchange by now. I suspect the tracking updates are stuck but wonder if it could be held up in customs.

I am curious what others think is likely based on their experience.

Guess it didn't get out in the first bunch of shipping

Not again ;-)...Did you preorder it when it went live or more towards the end of release? It's just odd to see you receive these items so slowly compared to others using the same method of shipping.

Well for starters I went Cheap ASS SAL as usual.

But to answer your question, No pre-ordered first week, by the time I payed, it was a day and a half after I got my notice, so I'm sure there must have been a few (alot ?) who got processed before mine.

Paid on the 22nd, it says it went out that 6 hrs after that.

The similarity between our situation astounds. I also took an extra day to pay as a result my SAL Registered package shipped a day or so later than those of many others. Departed outward office just 6 days later. I've had other cheap ass SAL packages clear inward office and drop in my lap in less time than this one is taking to officially arrive in Canada. Very frustrating that many others who used SAL have not run into this delay.

I actually had my order cancelled (forgot to pay) then I added it back and paid on the same day. Shipped on 03/31 and arrived 04/08 through registered SAL. Just dumbfounded by your poor experiences especially our close proximity and timing.

[Oberon Prime]

Yeah no kidding. Crazy inconsistency. Starting to think I should assume I'll be paying duty when it finally does get here.

I think mine arrived on Friday. Got a slip, but couldn't pick it up over the weekend....tears. Will have to wait til tomorrow to see if it is in fact Ratchet. I do have one other TF coming from overseas, but it was just ordered this week, so I doubt it beat it here. No tracking updates though since it arrive in customs on the 27th.

EDIT: Picked up..............Ratchet from the post office. The white and red to me is just stunning.

[Oberon Prime]

Yay!

Finally it moves. This is latest update.

05/09/2016 15:12 Departure from inward office of exchange

And with the same time stamp as "In Customs" so perhaps no charges

Can't wait!
