USPS not delivering to Australia

[FAPOS]

From what i understand, USPS use commercial passenger flights to transport - and there are little to no flights comming into Australia. Where as DHL & FedEX have their own dedicated cargo flights i believe?

Just FYI, anybody waiting on a USPS delivery - my 'express' shipping from BBTS sent on the 28th July didnt arrive until Thurs the 9th September... so 6 weeks USA to Perth.

According to tracking it moved along fairly normally until it arrived at an intermediate airport in Hong Kong on the 14th August & stated 'delayed awaiting flight'. It stayed that way until the 7th September when it touched down in Au (and the tracking changed to 'departed' on the 14th August, which im quite certain it didnt - pretty sure it sat in HK for 3 weeks waiting for a flight).

Did not know that. Makes sense.

I completely forgot i have a parcel in transit from TFSource until i saw this thread.

USPS accepted it on 16/08 in Nevada, and it passed through various USPS regional distribution centres, and finally left Los Angeles 22/08.

The tracking shows no updates since then. Wondering whether i should be worried at this stage.

Just collected my parcel from Auspost. So, mine took 1 month from USA to VIC.

That's good to know. Hopefully mine will get through eventually. It hasn't been sent back AFAIK.

Thanks. I hope you receive your stuff, especially the MISB G1 Jazz. That's anxiety inducing, just thinking about this precious cargo sitting somewhere where people don't know its value. Is it graded? If so, at least there's an acrylic case protecting the toy.

Thanks man, I'm sure it will show up eventually. Not graded and I don't think it would score above a 75 so I'd rather not know, but I'm happy to have a sealed pre-rub Jazz with the roof that isn't misaligned in the box.

For anyone who doesn't understand, basically a lot of G1 Jazz's were packaged with the front and back sections not lined up quite right. This isn't an issue once you open it and transform it properly, but it annoys my OCD a bit for sealed display.
Obviously these toys were never intended to be display items 35+ years down the track, so it's just the luck of the draw now.

I had a gaming-related item arrive last week - it took three months from USA to Perth.
