My returned FD DBW module has been stuck at the USPS depot in LA 'ready for export' for the last 11 days according to the tracking info.
Is this normal? Quite frustrating!

Had it loads of times Mike. Frustrating in the extreme. If you think the US is bad, just try getting something from Italy.... took a month and that wasn't duty-able either!

A little while ago I was importing some dog food samples from Canada (a long story, all of which will come become clear in due course...) and the tracking info drove me mad! It was sat at Liverpool docks for three weeks whilst UPS were telling me it was being delivered tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow and then next thing I found out was that a label had fallen off somewhere along the line and it had been incinerated and then a I got an email saying that it'd be delivered tomorrow.... Total shambles.

Anyway, I hope the same doesn't happen to you!! (I'm sure it's on it's way...)

Maybe just me then? Took three and a half weeks before it left the country on an insured and trackable national postal service delivery, then arrived to me a couple of days later. Complete shambles that end in my experience at least.

Also I hope I don't get clobbered for import tax when it does arrives back, import tax was paid the first time it came into the UK!
