Hi Leon and crew, 2 of my orders arrived this morning thanks a lot. I have also been very disciplined and put them both under the tree ( without even a peek). I know whats in them but  its my Christmas to myself so going to wait for the day. Cheers everyone and a Merry Christmas to the Pendraken staff and all those on the Forum  Kev.

Don't you start on me as well !!

Bad luck for me. Tomorrow i checked the tracker on the package, and it stated that it was on the transport with an estimated delivery for today. REally happy at that point.

When i look at the tracker now, 8 hours later, they just dropped it of at the fedex warehouse in belgium once more, and erased the estimated delivery time.

After the last entry on the tracker, it states "not due for delivery"

What the hell are they doing over there?

I presume that that means that it's not due for delivery today any more.
But that's a complete guess.

[petercooman]

I think so too, but why put it on a truck and then drive around all day and bring it back to where it started?

I'd guess it's one of two things:

- They have tried to deliver the package, but there was no answer, so it's gone back to the depot.

- The truck was delayed on it's deliveries, and it couldn't get to you today.  You'll be one of the first deliveries on tomorrow's schedule if so.

I once work in this domain.  Sometimes the driver wish to deliver it, but can't. It's a very difficult job, where every minute is like a gold piece ! May be he choosed to deliver a big box, earning more money, rather than your little one.
I'm sad for you.
( If you know where lies your minis, and if you live near that place,  sometimes it's worth calling them to stop the delivery, and take it yourself. I do this again, sometimes, when I'm waiting  for very important computer parts.)

Well it should be the second one, as my parents were at home the entire day waiting for it lol. Picking it up myself is hard with the dayjob...

I'll just have to sit through it and wait 

En ik vind het niet grappeg

You can try to call the depot, and insist. The driver may get your S.O.S.  (that's what I used to do..)
Good Luck !

I'll just sit through :p

Shame as i had enough free time today to do something 

[OldenBUA]

Ja, ik snap het. Ik ken het gevoel, wachten op iets, en dan komt het niet. Balen! Dus ik duim voor je!
