Strange

So i don't really know what this means "We have received notice that the originating post is preparing to dispatch this mail piece." But it has said that for about 4 days now, and when i track my order through royalmail.com it says "Your item, posted on 15/01/10 with reference XXXXXXX has been passed to the overseas postal service for delivery in UNITED STATES OF AMERICA." Im just starting to wonder what is going on? Anyone had anything like this happen to them? im getting worried and don't want to smoke analogs any longer!

thanks

Where did you order your stuff from, China? It sounds like your package is in motion and making its way to the US. It will more than likely have to go through customs. International shipping can take a long time. Welcome to snail mail. The USPS tracking system doesn't give live updates either. It will say it was shipped and usually the next update will say that it was delivered. I hope you get your items soon.

I ordered from www.vsvapor.net and they are based out of the UK, and like i said i am new to this so im wondering if i was scammed maybe im just paranoid. When i ask around no one has heard of this website and the only review i can find online i believe is from the company them self's. Maybe i made a bad choice and should have researched the supplier and little more. Like i said maybe im just paranoid from having a bad experience with online transactions.. At any rate IM KEEPING MY FINGERS CROSSED!

XXX!

I took a look at their website. Right on the front it says the United States of America. But under the about us tag this is what it said:

The Vapor Station is headquartered in the lovely city of Lewisville, Texas. We were established and officially recognized by the state Comptroller as well as the wretched IRS, in this beautiful state of Texas, on April 1, 2009. However, due to recent FDA issues and imminent pending litigation, we have moved headquarters to the United Kingdom.

The part about moving the headquarters of the United Kingdom doesn't bother me too much. But the part about imminent pending litigation makes me wonder if they are being sued or if the IRS is trying to collect. Hmmm...

I wouldn't worry to much. It appears that the Royal Mail has passed your package on to the over seas postal service. It looks like your package is in the mail. Let us know when you receive your package. Try not to stress too much.

Royal mail takes FOREVER. So that's probably normal, when you order from out of the country especially Royal mail it can take quite a long time. Once it finally hits the states your going to have to wait for customs to clear the order as well.

So maybe that's why nothing has changed for 4 days because maybe its still being cleared by customs? That would make much more sense, none the less thanks guys helped ease my stress on this one!

4days is still well within the shipping time from the UK. If they update their tracking like USPS--you will have the package 2 days before it gets updated to received.

One of my packages was listed as in san fran in the am and the package was delivered that afternoon.....

It will get there--we're all sending out positive thoughts

Usually when it hits customs the tracking will tell you "Inbound into customs" To be honest I doubt it's hit state side yet. I've heard Royal mail can take up to 2 weeks.

As some of you know I was born in the United kingdom so I often get mail via Royal Mail and I can tell you it can take quite a while.

EDIT: I just re-read your first post and saw it's already been handed over. There's a pretty good change it's already on the way. USPS tracking sucks. If it's been passed over you'll get it soon

You know what I'd do? Plug that same tracking number into USPS's website. See what you get. If it's been passed over then USPS is now using that tracking barcode.

I ordered from there three or four weeks ago and it took about 8 days to arrive .Eric is not as fast as he used to be when he shipped from US.

But I am sure it will come,he is not a crook .

Yea I talked him about a week ago and he seemed REALLY nice but u never know, im not as stressed now thanks guys.

@chris i put that tracking number in usps and that is what it said. It was waiting for the originating post to deliver the piece of mail thats why i was so confused..

but again thank you all!
