Well at least you don't have a tracking number from Singapore.

I tried to save a buck or two ordering a rather common item from a vendor in Singapore on August 21st.

I was reassured that the parcel was accepted by the post office three times on August 23rd.

On September 3rd, Singapore cleaned out the post office and my package was "dispatched to overseas".

The question not answered was whether the parcel was placed on a slow boat to somewhere (China perhaps) or whether it was placed in a corked bottle and cast off the pier.

To the seller's credit the delivery window in the listing was 5 weeks long ending in earlier October. It did not state whether the uncertainty is due to variability of the prevailing trade winds or perhaps the ocean currents.

This thread will probably die before my delivery, but I can always start another one for updates.
