midnight8 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 To get item shipped from Brazil to the USA. I won an auction over a month ago and seller quit responding. Hopefully it just takes that long to receive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zwackery Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Usually around 3 weeks, although I've had it go 4 to almost 5 weeks before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albert Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 It can take a month easily. Not encouraging that the seller stopped responding, though. ..Al Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not encouraging that the seller stopped responding, though. ..Al The seller has good feedback and looking thru it it looks like most of the time it is not left for him until about 6 weeks after the auctions ending. I have emailed them about 3 times but no response. if it doesn't show up in about 2 weeks I will be concerned. Not a huge amount of money but outside the window of paypal disputes though.

theking21083 Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 I know that in Alaska it can take upwards of 30 days depending on the method of shipment. My wife just got a package yesterday that she ordered in OCT 07. We already got a refund from the company months ago and then it just showed up out of nowhere.

Frostbite Bailey Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Most of my stuff from Brazil arrives here in Canada within 2 to 3 weeks. Mostly two weeks does it; so I think I would be concerned Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
midnight8 Posted May 20, 2008 Author Share Posted May 20, 2008 Most of my stuff from Brazil arrives here in Canada within 2 to 3 weeks. Mostly two weeks does it; so I think I would be concerned I sent him another email this morning. Well see what happens. I did not pay for air mail so I figured it could take a while. I really did not get too concerned because it is not abnormal for people on ebay to have zero communication anymore. If I did lose out it is only about 25 bucks or so including shipping.

Frostbite Bailey Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 Yah, $25.00 is not that bad of a loss; still I hope it does get there for you. Who was the seller? Maybe I have dealt with them before. Cheers, FB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

video game addict Posted May 20, 2008 Share Posted May 20, 2008 As far as emails are concerned, I'd recommend sending through ebay vs straight emails. Not sure how you sent them, but at least with ebay, there's a record of the message, where direct emails are sometimes lost in junk folders, or sellers may not be checking on a daily basis. Also if you did something slower than airmail, like surface,I would not be surprised with a longer wait. I'd give it 4-6 weeks on surface mailings.

I was planning to wait 6 weeks before getting concerned I just thought I would ask here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
