Is anyone else noticing problems with USA to UK postage? The reason I ask is that in the last 5 years I've got 1010 ebay purchases, 1000 of those must be records with an estimate 80% or more from USA. In all those I've had 1 not turn up (lucky I know), until this last month. In the last few weeks I've had a nice Ohio Players compass demo You Don't Mean It / Trespassin' not turn up and I've got 3 more 45s that are very very late with concerns.

Just wondering if it's a run of bad luck or something else?

Quick Edit, if Anne sees this the added 0s are just a typo

I've been waiting over a month for a reggie garner - that ain't the way to make love - shipped by seller but not yet arrived - had a couple of others from the states shipped after this one so beginning to wonder!

I suspect that the heightened security because of the Olympics may be having an effect. Packages, especially from abroad, may be coming under closer scrutiny.

Just a thought...

Didn't think of that, wonder if that's got something to do with it?

Yep, been waiting weeks for 2 packages. On the verge of givingup on them. Never thought of the Olympics.

Seem to be getting through here. Had 22 parcels at the PO on Saturday. Usually 1-2 weeks. That being said I'd better double check to see if any haven't arrived....Steve

22 parcels you need help mate lol

22 parcels you need help mate lol

Having said that I'm waiting on 5 and I've stopped collecting lol

Had one posted on 23/7/12 from Fenton MO arrive yesterday and another posted 18/7/12 from Greenville SC arrive today. The second one I paid for on about 4/7/12 so it took the seller a couple of weeks to actually post the record. I'm in London.

Ha ha! Record collecting never stops Mark.

Was waiting for a 45 over a month here, and tracked said waiting at depot for three weeks. Never lost one though, IMO if one goes missing its a seller error!
