Ordered three things for mine. They have all turned up quickly. Just need to organise sending. Will be using UPS I expect so hopefully will be no issues.

One of the items was sent to me via RM - took about 5 days to arrive so not so bad.
 
Received my gift, I'll update Elfster shortly.

I'm a bit worried about being able to ship on time though because I got despatch notes for 2 parts of what I'm giving on 28th and 30th Nov but still haven't received anything. I'm sure I'm not the only one but it's pretty frustrating.
 
I was just on parcel2go, they said some couriers are experiencing difficulties. For reference:

The thing I'm waiting for has been sent via Evri, and was supposed to be here today. It now says there's been a problem and it's now delayed. So no idea when that will arrive. :(
 
Couple of parcels have turned up yesterday and today. Thanks to my SS - under the tree waiting for opening

edit - 3rd one just turned up! Thanks

I'll go through and mark the posted ones at some point this week. Mine was sent late last week so it's probably still sat in the post office at the moment but it should be there in time for the big day :D
 
DPD has been abysmal in my area this last week.

Had a large delivery of frozen dog food delayed (meant to be next day for obvious reasons) - Thankfully due to the snow it was still frozen when it arrived more than 48 hrs after being posted.

Most deliveries from them have been delayed by at least a day, but currently one which was meant to come Friday, then Saturday, then Sunday, then today - Still not arrived, despite two others turning up prior. Suspect it is lost....
 
Evri seem to be colapsing under the pressure. I've had an item stuck in a service depot for a week! and same for a collegue at work. I sent my SS out Evri, just hope that gets there. I would put Evri on the do not use list to be honest. for now anyway.

Indeed, I have a parcel on it's way with from the US and is being handed off to Evri for the UK leg, and it seems to have been stuck since the 11th, when it made its way through customs, and has not even hit their tracking yet.
