How Long Does It Take

Post by billz »

Ordered my Bonnet Bra and got an email & Tracking Number. Checked the status and found that within 24hrs the Bra had been Picked,Packed and Shipped from LA in America and also had arrived in the UK. It has now been sat in the same location in the UK for 4 days and still hasnt left. So it takes 1 day to go half way around the world and over 4 days to go 17mls, as that is how far away it is from me. And when it eventually gets here they are going to want me to pay £23 import duty. Think i should be charging them :lol:

Bill, why didn't you just order one from the UK and avoid import duty? unless dirt cheap?

Even though it says upto year 99, I don't think bonnets changed from pre to post facelift.

Went for the colgan as it is supposed to be the best. Looked at others but they all looked quite wrinkly were the colgan one seemed to fit alot better. Wasnt cheap but i always believe you get what you pay for.
