Bigbob Posted November 30, 2023 Report Share Posted November 30, 2023 I bought a collection of books and the guy sent me proof of postage monday 8am with a tracking number , When you put the tracking number in it shows there sitting in a royal mail warehouse with the message we will update when we try to deliver ?.The proof of post says 2nd class we will deliver in 3 working days ?. Is this royal mail getting busy already and stockpile the 2nd class mail like last year ? . I obliviously want the books but i want to know when there coming so i can be in , i dont want to miss them and go to a post office to retrieve them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harrycatcat1 Posted November 30, 2023 Report Share Posted November 30, 2023 I bought a shooting seat off a fella Peterborough way about an hour and a half away from me. He sent it first class signed for and it took 17 days to reach me and that was September time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaptC Posted November 30, 2023 Report Share Posted November 30, 2023 Similar here - Ordered a present for my grandson 48 hour Royal Mail delivery. It took eight days! Tripped over the parcel as it was dumped on the doorstep although we were at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
