Waiting for something to be delivered

    I think I preferred it when you couldn't track your parcels, cos at least then you weren't waiting so much. I have something on the way, estimated delivery by courier is today, but its sitting in customs clearing scan or something, and I'm checking the tracking page every 5 minutes to see if theres been any progress :mad: any other AH's do this?

    I wish ;)

    I am the worst for this. All rational thought goes out the window. It is like waiting for Santa when you are young.

    If its sitting in customs probably means they are waiting for you to pay import duty. At least that's what I had to do.

    Worst is when you need to go to the loo. Thats when they knock.

    Consolidation Arrived - Pending Customs Clearance and inbound scan

    No I ordered it from amazon UK, its on courier delivery.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,562 ✭✭✭✭Sunnyisland


    I waited nine months for a lovely parcel to be delivered before :-)

    I just stick on my incontinence pants so I don't miss the delivery and there's the added bonus that it keeps you warm, especially when you have a particularly big piss.

    Was the postman involved in any way?

    Will it not go to a central sorting depot before it's allocated to a driver?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11,835 ✭✭✭✭cloud493


    According to the tracking, it was already at a depot in surrey.

    Or when it finally arrives, 4 days late, and then you realize it has to be sent back.

    Thread title misleading.


    I thought the OP was constipated.

    Unless you are waiting for a delivery of incontinence pants - Beach Towel, Bin liner, and Duct Tape time never seems to fully contain things.

    With Amazon I found the parcels always arrive on the expected delivery date they mention and if they're arriving by an post then it'll usually arrive sometime in the morning.

    It is the package delivery equivalent of "Last seen" like on Facebook messages or Whats App....stop it!!

    Nothing like having a parcel delivered, especially if it's a nice shiny new gadget.
