Shipping time for orders from Amazon.com

[nic]

Hi Guys,

Any idea what's the typical shipping time for an order from Amazon to get to Singapore? I was told my order was air-mailed on 6th Dec... until now I still haven't received it.. while my friend's order was shipped on 8th, and he got it around 18th...

Thanks in advance.

Well, not sure about the shipping time but what you can do if you suspect a package has been lost in shipment is to email them.

My experience with Amazon has been outstanding. I had a case where they shipped out my order in 2 parts over 2 days. I received the 1st part but the 2nd part did not arrive after a week. I emailed them and they told me to wait for another few days. When the shipment still did not come, I emailed them again and they did a reshipment of the missing parts using DHL express!

Excellent service.

Hope it works out for you.

Thanks

That's what my friend told me too... so I am sitting tight... they told me to wait for another week...

My experience with them has been outstanding too. Ordered the Reno air race DVDs and had to wait for nearly 3 months cos supplier had no stock. They kept me informed every month to assure me that they are following up with the supplier, and eventually got these rare DVDs delivered.

Also bought the Airlife's World Aircraft hardcover, they delivered it in 2 weeks.

Nic,
I just received my item yesterday, I ordered it on 24 Dec 2004 and selected the 5 to 9 days delivery time, it cost a little more. It is within the menetioned thime frame. My colleagues have the delivery issue too, one of them ordered a day later than the other but got the item first. Both selected the normal delivery. These things do happened. You can track it with the shipping number, just drop them an e-mail. Oh, all of us order from Amazon US.

Thanks all.. my order didn't have shippng number...

Next time I will select the next better shipping option... (if this one gets through fine)

Finally.. they agree to re-ship... after 1 month + 1 week of waiting..

and I still need to wait another month.. they say no stock...

Sorry to hear that you yet to recieve your item. But don't give up, this is just one of those little unfortunate thing we encounter in life.

but think they shipped by normal.. instead of expaditie as they mention in the email..
since delivery date stays at 7th Feb... and there is still no tracking number

Re: Shipping time for orders from Amazon.com

My experience with Amazon's been good too. Not that I 've ordered many stuffs from them.

Ordered the Return of the King DVD before Christmas and it arrived about 2 weeks later.

We ordered the same item, it is for my daughter since I can't get it locally the extended version. Love that show and so is my daughter, got all the three shows in extended version. Notice that it is slightly cheaper to get it from Amazon US. Nic hope you get your item soon, whatever it is, Good luck.

Agree.. At least when I want to buy computer stuff, I just go Sim Lim Square and u have alot of shops. If SL Square cannot find what u want, I can fall back to Funan. Electronics stuff, I go SL Tower.

Yup, worked out to be $48 for the extended version, including freight. Got all 3 too.
