Hannants - How Long?

[LSP_K2]

I just placed my very first order with Hannants today; how long are average ship times to the US, any thoughts?

 

Thanks a bunch,

[D Bellis]

I've had them deliver in about a week, or up to about 3 weeks using the cheapest shipping method at the time. The biggest delay for me has always been having my packages sit in US Customs in NY or NJ - sometimes for a week to 10 days. 

 

I'm about 100 miles east of NYC, so getting to you in the middle of the US will probably take longer than what I'm used to here. 

 

HTH,

2-3 weeks to Maryland is the norm for me.

I've placed about a dozen orders over the last 3-4 years.

Last order I placed took ten days to Kingston, Ontario in Canada...and most of that time was in Canada Customs. Generally I expect it to take ten days to two weeks. I order probably three or four times a year and have never had a problem.

+1 Typically 2-3 weeks to the States, sometimes a month for me.

OK, thanks fellas, I appreciate it. I decided to order today (Montex mask set), for a '109 I'd like to have done by mid-September.

Hannants will dispatch it very quickly - after that, it depends on whether you have angered the Mail System Gods or not.

I love Hannants.   Even though in Australia, It's never taken longer than three weeks to be at my door.

Averages ten days to two weeks to Rhode Island, U.S. customs is the delay point.

For me in the middle of the US, it normally takes me 10 days to 3 weeks give or take. Im so close to SB that the shipping from there usually makes in worth it, but of course you do pay a bit more for that.

OK, my order has been parked in Chicago for the last three days now. With any luck, I should have it in the next few days.

[LSP_K2]

And it's still in Chicago. Thank goodness I won't need it until mid-August, as it may actually be here by then.

Chicago hub is a sore spot for me, they have actually returned my packages back overseas for no reason and when I placed a trace on it, they couldn't find it. I lost a Trumpeter 1/350 carrier that way. Took me 9 months to get it replaced.

Just over 1 week for my order once shipped.

NY is the same thing. They returned two packages back to Italy this year (so far), the shipping got them back and there was no reason for return, they resent exactly as-is and they both came through no issues second time around. Who knows.

Currently have another package from Italy that made it past NY at least and into NC in mid June, departed Raleigh and nothing since then. Local PO is useless. Submitted online search and just as useless (no response).

In short, international mail is still up in the air. Sometimes it goes super fast, other times it's still at 2020 levels of 2-3 months transit time. Seems to be no rhyme or reason. I've had delays/sits both in the US and also other country's mail handlers.
