Ordered some boxes from Dacardworld and the tracker said they arrived in Australia yesterday all of two days, but the expected delivery time from Mascot NSW to Townsville QLD is a week. Does that sound right.

That really annoys me that it takes so long thought I'd be opening them today or tomorrow

Don't think of it as 2 days from USA to SYD then 7 days SYD to QLD just think of from the day you pay for it it will be 8 or 9 days until you can bust them

You have to remember customs firstly. There not forced to act quickly even if you paid for quick freight. I send freight daily from Sunshine Coast outwards nationally, and from where I'm at, I quote 4 days to Townsville. Unless people pay for crazy premium postal services, then it's going to be treated normally. The services DCW offer sound great, but there pretty basic. If you want something fast, use FedEx, but if you can only choose what someone offers, you have to just sit it out and wait.

That's normal from my experience, the item stays in Mascot few days for some reasons.

Not really, it means it MAY have cleared the customs process... 7 days won't happen, I had the same thing with my last package from DACW and it arrived on the Tuesday. I ordered it Thursday Night Australian time...

 

[mattyeah]
