The Archon has crossed the ocean and landed in Paris, if it manages to get to Milan and pass customs tomorrow it could be here one day early, on Tuesday.

What type of shipping service did you use and what is the destination country?  If you tell me that I may be able to help you locate the outbound flight from Memphis, which may well not be taking off until the wee hours of the morning tonight.

Cool. Used FedEx Int Economy to the UK.

Are you using a flight tracker?

Yes, I like FlightAware.  The majority of cargo to Stansted goes on FDX #2, which leaves Memphis most nights just before 4 AM CST.  The key time to check your tracking is about 7 PM GMT, as that will usually have allowed the flight enough time to land and unload the cans.  Looking at the flight history, I don't see past Monday arrivals for that one.  If it wasn't on the last flight and it doesn't go on one of the less commonly used flights to London, ot could be inbound Tuesday evening.  From there it will typically take a day to transfer to the destination station, and then the day after that go out for delivery.  This is assuming no customs delay and that your saber pre-cleared before arrival, but if customs gets into the picture all bets are off.

That's strange then. My last saber shipped on Wednesday and was in the UK by Friday that same week. The weekend to clear customs, then was delivered a day early.

This one has been in Memphis since early Friday morning. Tracking still shows ETA as Wednesday 9th.

Oh well. Nothing to do but sit and wait. Lucky this is my 2nd saber, so the wait is not that bad..

Thanks Justicar.

I think it depends on how the ship date from Texas works with the flight schedule to the UK.  If it arrives in Memphis on the wrong day it will sit and wait for the next outbound flight.  If it doesn't arrive Tuesday evening in London, that's the point where I'd call FedEx.

So how many times have you all checked your tracking information since getting your shipping notification?
Mine sent Friday and I think I've checked into the thousands now :p I have no patience at all.

Take a look round lively old London. Buzzing crowds we sweat and we revel. Red-cheeked shouts and songs In the flicker of the gaslight. Eager Blighty bursts from the cobblestones. Racing, climbing blooming fertility. Born from secret seeds that were scattered in the nighttime. London is fed upon the meat of the dead. They’re one shallow inch below the town. Them that whispered dreams that only poisoned us. Them that told us lies of their bravery. Them that preached of progress, and put us in the poorhouse. Them done horrid murder on bloody stages. Them that loudly crowed their humility.

I have a direct link to track it on my homescreen of my phone. I check it constantly.
It's been stuck in Arizona for over a day, so I'm hoping its here soon.
