    Hi all, I have a couple of items dispatched from the UK since Christmas that I've been waiting two if not three weeks for. Is anyone else seeing slow delivery from the UK at the moment, as I usually only have to wait a week or so for most things.

    Have ordered a few things from UK based sellers on Amazon & Ebay recently (post Christmas). All have arrived in a week or less using standard delivery.

    No, I have had 2 items arrive within 5 working days.

    I find that it has improved somewhat if anything. I normally waited up to seven days to get items that I ordered from ebay/amazon and am now normally getting them within five days.

    I think ver all postage is improved from UK and also from Spain, ordered something on ebay on Monday received it on Friday, another that was ordered also Monday that was custom made received yesterday (not sure when was posted) so under a week on both cases. Another item ordered from Spain took only 3/4 days to get to Ireland.

    If you ordered at Christmas time that can be a bit of a lottery. Your item may still be part of the backlog. No harm in contacting the seller though.
