I hope I've not messed up again . I ordered some discontinued Winn oversized lite grips from Amazon and tracking shows Royal Mail with delivery early March. No warning from Amazon regarding overseas supplier, of course. Could have had same grips from PGA TOUR SUPER STORE , but they wanted $9 to ship two grips which was ludicrous.
Maybe the UK ones will show , but when I saw the Royal Mail shipping alarms went off. I usually avoid complications of over seas sources .
Any experience with buying from UK?
Royal Mail
sounds luxurious to me

Exactly
I've never bought anything from the UK and had it shipped to the states, but lived there for a couple years and sent letters, etc back home to the states. Normal post was generally 7-10 business days.
Something boxed and shipped does require customs processing once it arrives in the US (I'm assuming anyway) and that could add 3-4 business days to the usual delivery time as well.
I would think however it would arrive within 3 weeks at most?

I had bought stuff from the U.K. and China in the past..... depending on the shipper and the shipping method. Some came fairly fast, the seller shipped the same day and once the package hits N. America, it was carried by the local carrier. Some came very late, shipper did not ship the same day, package traveled by land then by sea, then once it hits N. America, it was bouncing around between several carriers before arriving.
It depend on the method of shipping and whether the origination is close to the hub where the shipping is routed.
If it takes several days to reach the shipping hub then, those will be part of the delay.
It also depend on whether the U.S. Custom will select the package for inspection from profile or random, that could be another day to 5 days delay........
Thanks for answers. Wifey sends and buys cross stitch over seas a bit without issue so maybe the grips will show soon . The tracking shows shipped day after purchase which was encouraging. I've been kinda spoiled with extremely quick delivery buying from DTG, VG, GW, but none of them had the low weight over size I want.
Grips delived today
