For those of us who do not mind waiting... just for fun.

Who is going to take the longest to arrive (just for fun).

RULES... It must actually arrive, it must be the original parcel, no re-deliverys accepted. Longest waiting time wins.

I really do not mind waiting, I have waited for china post many many times over the years. So I thought I would play this for fun.

I think I have a good chance, one of my parcels was ordered on the 18th September, and it seems to have hit the ports at the exact time to be held up. It is doing pretty good so far as it has aquired the ability to hide in the outward office of exchange at
GUANGDONG. With a bit of luck it will keep its head down until after the elections.

If everythng goes to plan it will then be held up by the xmas rush, which starts about the same time as the election meeting ends. This should put my parcel at the back of the queue again as other parcels take priority. This should take me up to January some time

Now before you think that will be the end of my chances at winning then fear not, because January just happens to be a snowy month here in Euro land. So I might still be able to add a few weeks as the various airports get clogged up with snow.

Anyone else expecting the long wait want to compete for bragging rights?

I'm waiting on an order from 18-Sep. It cleared customs easily enough, but Canada Post is notorious for delivering by ground squirrel so I know this could still take another week or two.

"9 Oct (13 days ago)

This was only 9 buisness days ago, you guys from the east are too used to fast shipping In the UK if we use EMS it still usually takes us 3 weeks in my experience. That is why most of us use cheapest shipping, not that much difference in time.

Slow way = needs patience.... I am practising the chinese arts of meditation and relaxation while I wait, which includes a lot of vaping. Lucky for me I was expecting delays in Novemeber so I had already stocked up a bit. Big tip for all, even if you buy it local, stock up because there is a good chance local outlets could run dry this winter as the post is already slow. You should have at least 4 months supply once you know you like to vape.

slow way to uk 80% = up to 60 days, I think I can beat that

Can I add orders that are not from China and not from HC?
I've got an order from China from October 1, and an order from Tennessee from October 9, but I think the one from Tennessee's actually going to take longer (like early December longer). The USPS guy must be riding a trike to California.

Well good news my end, all 3 of my orders including the one from 3 weeks ago have all arrived safely to me.
Thanks HC

Just arrived today. I wasn't supposed to get it till next week, but I had a friend at the Post Office who let me have it because it was already sitting there. Everything is here. Thanks HC!

I am waiting for my VMAX since 6th october. Usually I get orders from China (HC, HG) in 15 days max, but this package is still in China.

 

[notdurrr]

Mine is still hiding lol. A second package ordered a week later arrived last week. Not sure how long I am supposed to leave it before I file I claim, but I was going to wait the 60 days, which will be 18th November. Not far away now, but it still has time.

 

[manuelpt]

Still waiting for my order from 29 September. 37 days, Am I leading the contest?

 

[mitsuhashi]

Only by 2 days!

Turns out my package from Tennessee really was stuck in Memphis for the three weeks I had waited before contacting the seller, and the guy re-sent it via Priority Mail which arrived with no problems.

The one from China which I ordered on Oct 1 hasn't arrived and the tracking hasn't been updated in 17 days.
