Bigbottle MM/MC Hybrid Valve Phonostage PCB

Haha!

DHL have delivered some brand new PCBs..

I will start packing them over the weekend and they will be on the way next week. 20200429_141442.jpg
 
Hi Oliver,
Is there any chance of a tracking number for the PCB of mine from the first batch you got (2nd April post date)? I just want to ensure that it gets through the SA C&E, when they lift the lock-down here.
Thanks,
Kevin
P.S. I had an order lying at the local post office for 6 weeks as I recall, and they had not sent out a notice that it had arrived - I have to collect at the PO and pay the C&E clearance and VAT to the PO.

As I said to someone else in the thread,

When I posted them, Royal Mail weren't giving out tracking numbers as they said the company weren't doing signatures etc, due to Covid-19

All I have is a stamped receipt as proof of postage and that I sent it insured for stated amount.

I had a chat with the post office clerk yesterday about the next lot I have to post and she told me not to pay online, which did the first time, and take it to the PO instead and she would do her best to get them tracked.

We're just going to have to wait.

I dont doubt that those outstanding PCBs will arrive, it's just a case of when.
 
Today I posted out the PCBs

I have a receipt and everything was sent Tracked and signed for.

PLEASE be patient........the words of the Post Office Clerk:

"The US ones could take weeks as there is a massive backlog. The EU ones too"

So, I will keep all the details I have and if we run into any issues, I will chase them up but let's give them as much time as possible to deliver them

Thanks to everyone who participated.

I do have a couple of spares if there is further interest.
