Shipping time from England

[o803oVaDeR]

Anyone have any idea how long it takes to ship something from England to the US? I am trying to buy some souvenirs from London for my wife for Christmas. She really wants to go there, but it aint happening for a few more years, so I thought she would like this idea. I just want to be sure they would get here on time. The website says that international shipping usually arrives in 2 to 7 working days. That seems a little too fast to me. I dont see how that could be possible. They say that it is shipped via Airmail, by International Signed For delivery, DHL OR Parceline. My shipping cost was 22.41 Euros. That seems very cheap for 2 to 7 day international shipping. I am hesitant to buy it without knowing for sure. I emailed the store, but I am sure it will take a while to hear back from them. Anyone have experience buying stuff from overseas online? If so, does any of this sound about right?

I have had stuff from England in 4 business days before usually more like 6-7 though.

Usually takes about a week whenever I order Villa jerseys.

Thanks for the help guys. Does the cost seem right though? I mean none of it weighs much. It couldn't weigh more than 5 to 7 lbs total. Just a few shirts and small souvenirs. I always thought it was a lot more expensive to ship from overseas.

Looking at the exchange rate, 22.4 Euros is about $29.7 USD.

Which would pobably put it in the equivalent to USPS Priority Mail. That would say 6-10 days for it to arrive.

IF it doesn't arrive in time for Christmas, I suggest that, if you live near Charlotte, go to the British Market near Red Cross bldg and get her some food items and they probably have a nice card as well that you could let her know that her girt is on the way!

OR, just watch the Doctor Who Christmas Special, Christmas night on BBCAHD!
