zippin23 Posted February 26, 2014 Report Posted February 26, 2014 Ok, 5th day viewing "inbound to customs"!!!!!! I know, I know, be patient. I just had to let out some steam.
bvc Posted February 26, 2014 Report Posted February 26, 2014 Sorry to hear that mate. Felt your rage over here in old blighty and my thoughts are with you. I would pray for you but I don't think it would help. Bvc.
panerai153 Posted February 26, 2014 Report Posted February 26, 2014 Calm down, take a deep breath and relax. Customs clearance takes time, sometimes they get things out quickly, sometimes packages languish in customs for weeks. you got to get used to it or it will drive you crazy. The biggest problem is there is no rhyme or reason for delays, and no way to predict which package will be the one that gets held up. Also remember the USPS and US Customs are pretty much 5 day per week operations. Some mail moves on weekends and holidays, but not much happens, so you need to account for that as well.
chronoluvvv Posted February 26, 2014 Report Posted February 26, 2014 you just need to get laid, mannn 1
zippin23 Posted February 26, 2014 Author Report Posted February 26, 2014 you just need to get laid, mannn Chrono, I took your advice!! Haha Great advice!!
mymanmatt Posted February 26, 2014 Report Posted February 26, 2014 Customs moves at their own pace. Sometimes quicker than others. But never fast. Relax and be patient. It will be here before you know it
chronoluvvv Posted February 26, 2014 Report Posted February 26, 2014 customs = molasses any attempt to speed up the process is usually counter-productive

Legend Posted February 28, 2014 Report Posted February 28, 2014 You need to stop checking the tracking status each day. Patience is not only a virtue, but a necessity in this hobby. The watch almost always turn up at your doorstep. You're new and you need to understand this process better. Don't get your knickers in a bunch over nothing. Sent from Mars using tapatalk
panerai153 Posted February 28, 2014 Report Posted February 28, 2014 Pard, If she sees that photo, you aren't going to need that watch, because she's going to put you in a full body cast !!
