do not be sad friends
do not ever be worried about me

it's not that this flight will destroy me

hehehe ... next year !!!

I'll be back

and I present myself at the door of examination





... and I also send my knives by Fedex

Great attitude.

We all know that it is just a matter of time. And Fed Ex. LOL!
 
Hey, did this knife ever show up?

Do you mind sharing how it was shipped (Fed Ex, DHL, etc.)? I have a DHL package from Europe that seems to have vanished, and I'm wondering if it is a pattern with DHL, or maybe there is some problem shipping stuff from Europe to the US in general.

TIA!
 
Ken

No it hasn't

I will send a message to Sam for a response

I hope yours gets here
 
In my experience DHL and Fedex all work good when sending packages from Europe to the US. It's wenn normal postal services are used wenn things go south. Wenn I ship a parcel with regular postal services here in Holland, tracking stops wenn it arrives in the US! That's like having no tracking at all.
 
Thanks, Joe. VERY sorry to hear that this has completely vanished. :( Wow. Still, who knows? Maybe it will show up unexpectedly some day.

My package is DHL and was shipped from Britain several weeks ago. No one knows where it is. There is nothing about it that I can imagine would have triggered any problems in customs. I have had some other bad experiences the past couple of years, and every time it was something coming from Africa or Europe. Anytime that I ever order something from Asia it arrives licketty-split with zero problems. This makes me very reluctant to order any items of any kind from Europe anymore.
 
To be honest I've sent lots of stuff to the U.S. no problems at at all and also receive at least one parcel a week from the U.S. To the UK fingers crossed never lost one yet.
Although Travis Fry once sent one from Tx to my sister in Wa and it went missing. Never ever turned up, it was a great looking knife that had been engraved by Doug Arnew:confused::confused:

The crazy thing is I had a knife from Slovakia I be,I've take a month and a half

I sent a knife to Austria and it took 5 weeks

I bet Bows from Scotland in 3 days

Go figure

Toni, that is not correct. If you ship with PostNL and you choose for track and trace you can track the parcel via USPS.com using the same tracking number.

That's true. However that's a quite recent developement i think. Up untill not too long ago they would only track untill the border.

Generally, when tracking stops for you, it starts for the US recipient. If you plug your tracking number into the USPS web site, it will pick up.

FWIW, I avoid couriers like the plague and use trackable post for all my international purchases, whether they be knives or other goods. I've had one package lost in 30 years. I've had the same one package lost over the same span via courier - but that time period accounts for far, far fewer shipments.
