I am waiting on one sent via DHL post. Lovely tracking number supplied for it.
Pity that there has been no scanning of the article and they don't know its whereabouts.

It is from DHL Germany, then it will just turn up out of the blue after a long wait... Do not expect anything under a month....
And anyone wanting anything from China/Hong Kong..... 20kg surface mail is around US$70 to get here...Gold, the colour of choice for the discerning person.

Well I have something on the way with the ebay program too, also through Pitney Bowes. But i paid far less than what USPS would have been, the item is 25lbs and approx 24"x12"x12". Postage was only 54.95USD. But then Stuart has tried to buy the same item from the same seller and he has been told postage will be over $100. We are wondering if he stuffed up the postage quote for mine.....I guess i'll know when i get it.

Ebay is a joke now and I avoid it if possible. The postage rip offs by some sellers are outrageous .
If I see something I am interested in I send an email asking postage costs and delivery methods before I buy even if they say it in their ad. That way I have it in an email that I can send to pay pal or an insurance claim . If they don't use USPS or the standard postal service then I don't buy . If their feedback is bad then I don't buy period.The volume of a pizza of thickness 'a' and radius 'z' is given by pi z z a.

Well my scope seems to have taken a vocation to Hawaii, not sure why something would need to be sent via Honolulu.....
