Alright, what the hell. How long does it take UK Post to get my fucking package (seeds :)) on the road? It's been two days, I've been checking the status every 15 minutes, and It still hasn't shipped. "We have received your item and it is being processed for delivery abroad." How in the fuck does processing take two days??? Anyone else have bad experiences with these fuck-tards?

Lol I don't hate the UK, I'm just wondering how on earth it would take the royal mail so long to process a package going to the U.S. ... And I don't think it's the shop because the actual Royal Mail has had my package for two days. How can you blame the shop for that? :confused:

LMAO :D I better watch out! Hehe, but na I read on their site about what can and can't be sent through the royal mail. No mention of cannabis seeds anywhere. I think If my package is seized it's more likely going to be on my end :( But I'm hoping for the best.

Seriously, why?
Uhhhh... What the hell does this mean? "By Surface mail, it may take up to two weeks for Western Europe, four weeks for Eastern Europe, and up to eight weeks elsewhere." -RoyalMail.Com
It means, that if it's not going by air, then it'll take up to 8 weeks to get to you.

What shipping method did you pay for? What did it have listed under the shipping method? I ordered from the UK two weeks ago. I ordered a new glass spoon, and a Bong and paid for the cheapest shipping and I got it in about a week, maybe a little less, I think it was 5 days exactly. The cheap shipping I chose said all this jazz about how it will take weeks in Europe, and weeks elsewhere, but in the end I think it's just a plot to get people to pay for the more expensive shipping method.

Hey, that's the same I had for my shipment from the UK. As I stated before it only took mine 5 days. I live in the U.S.

"The 'Signed For' service is a little more reliable. Packages must be signed for on receipt and there is a tracking facility on www.RoyalMail.com, however, it can only track packages up until the point that they leave the UK.
Compensation is available for lost packages for up to £28.00. Packages will normally take up to a week to arrive, however the Royal Mail will not accept a package as being 'lost' until after 2 months. We are unable to ship replacement packages until that time."
-everyonedoesit.com
Ok, correct me if I'm wrong, but if it says that packages take up to a week to arrive, and cannot be considered lost by the royal mail until after 2 months (8 weeks) then I think it was shipped air because if everyonedoesit.com shipped it surface and advertised to get it to you in 5 days, they would have alot of people calling in reporting lost packages, recieving compensation for a package that they would probably recieve the in the next 1-2 days, and that couldn't be good for buisness!

yeah rasta, i feel ya, i've wasted a lot of my hands' energy today on bitching about things that i feel are wrong...but you do feel better when you get it out and just voice your opinion, so for that i am respectful of you, and i'm sure you'll get your package soon enough....it just has to make it from the UK to the US...and i can understand how that would entail a lot of time and hassle....
