·Anyone got any experience with ebay purchases from Italy posting to the UK? I bought a vintage Casio at the beginning of September, the seller posted it via Poste Italiane and it's yet to arrive. From the tracking number provided I can get the following information from Royal Mail:
Tue 5th Sep - Item received at "Italy"
Fri 8th Sep - Item Leaving overseas "Italy"
and that's it! I've messaged the seller and he's said he can see the following his side:
05/09/2023 <a>15.12<;/a> Accepted by the Post Office CAPACI Post Office in [location removed]
05/09/2023 <a>19.12<;/a> In progress at the Post Office CAPACI Post Office in [location removed]
06/09/2023 <a>15.13<;/a> In progress at the Postal Operations Center PALERMO PA
07/09/2023 <a>11.10<;/a> In progress at the Postal Operations Center PALERMO PA
08/09/2023 <a>03.05<;/a> In progress at the International Exchange Center International Exchange Center
08/09/2023 <a>11.38<;/a> departed from the international exchange center International Exchange Center
So both systems say it's "departed" or "left" Italy, and reassuringly on the same day, but not that it's arrived in the UK. Did it go in a kayak?!
I'm thinking it's probably stuck in post Brexit customs in the UK somewhere and I just need to be patient. But I kind of expected it to be tracked to the UK and then see it stuck in some sort of processing / customs facility. The fact it's kind of disappeared between two countries I find a bit disconcerting.
Anyone had any similar experience that can put my mind at rest?
