Expected shipping times to Europe?

Post by lastfuture »

Hi,

I've placed an order directly with you about a month ago in the naive belief it may get here within a week or two. The last USPS tracking update was 27 days ago and says the item is currently in transit. I'm assuming it's somewhere on a ship.

Do you have any empirical data on shipping times to Germany that you can share so I know when to expect my parcel?

Also, since I'll definitely be using a local distributor from now on, which one would you suggest for Germany? Which one should have the most complete inventory of Adafruit playthings?

36 days and waiting ... this can't be normal, right?
Good thing I found decent local distributors while I'm waiting for my order. So far I've picked up: A Flora, a Trinket, a Pro Trinket, a NeoPixel Ring, an RFID breakout board, a pack of diffused NeoPixels and a pack of colorful square tactile buttons.

It finally arrived today! What a slow boat.
All is good, on to soldering things to other things
