    Normally I get my products from USPS to India within 3-4 days or max 5 days, I have ordered a new product and it is already 8 days and still no update, when I check tracking, it says:

    Your item left the United States from ISC LOS ANGELES CA (USPS) at 8:50 AM on December 13, 2008. Information, if available, is updated every evening. Please check again later.


    I ordered a game on the same day and it came in 4 days, where as this is taking more than 8 days, I am gettin really mad here :mad:

    Anybody has got similar experiences?

    THanks

    It's Christmas - postal services worldwide will be delayed.
    I'm waiting on a parcel from the US (to Australia), and I'm not expecting it until the new year.
    What game is it?

    ^^ I think it must be in the Customs & Duties office coz AFAIK electronic items are often stuck in customs this is from my personal experience I tell u... btw from which site did u order the GPU :eek:

    If it is stuck in customs office then you'll get a letter from them, asking u to come collect ur shipments

    If it was stuck in customs, then the tracking would have said, "Into foreign customs" ;)

    I ordered from eBay

    I guess Hardware is different from Electronics? Once I ordered a Graphic card from DHL and it cost me 600 Rupees only, when the Customs declaration was priced at $183 :D

    U Think custom people give a damn if its hardware i think they treat it like electronics. But just hope custom doesnt charge much coz i was charged once when the item was declared gift lol
