Default Japarts delivery time

I ordered a STI strut tower brace from Japanparts in Japan last week. It was posted on Thursday 28th in Japan, arrived here at home today, Tuesday, 5th; that`s 4 working days......very impressed.
Ordered a case for a phone in UK last month, took over 2 weeks to arrive....go figure.

He means Japanparts

4 working days pretty good, probably came Fedex so missed out Coventry International Mail Centre where all the holdups usually are.

If Fedex, expect a bill in the post

Doh! Yeah, Japanparts. Tracking stated it went to Coventry. I thought I had been in a time warp...it arrived in the UK at 11.50 pm on Fri night, having left the Tokyo Japanparts depo just after 4 pm on Thurs.
I can`t see Fedex anywhere on the docs, it`s Japan post and parcelforce, but I bet there will be a bill somewhere...but you never know.

doubt it - normally you have to pay before delivery, so you have probably escaped :: Given it was a bank holiday, that's really good service !
