International Transit Times

I could not find contact information for Koetsu directly anywhere. Do you have that information lew?

thanks

Not at my fingertips. Plus, I think my return went through the dealer, in the Akihabara electronics mecca in Tokyo. They dealt with Koetsu on my behalf. If you really need their contact I’ll make an effort.

No need to search for it. I have worked with Mel Ang at Koetsu SE several times and it has worked out fine. I just don’t know why he used such a slow method for shipping. 

My experience with registered mail from oveseas is that it is slow. I agree with @lewm-- it's on a boat somewhere. And who knows was the post Covid/supply chain/etc. impact is even at this point. There was a period where regular postal business was non-existent between certain places for a while. 

I got a fancy vacuum tube from India not so long ago- a week using the Fedex account of the vendor; ditto, DHL Express, for records from Japan. On the other hand, someone mistakenly sent me a record using Deutsche Post and it took a couple months. Hang in there.

I have, but not since the whole covid thing. It always seemed like ~ 5 - 7 days in transit. Typically 8 weeks total for the full cycle ship - rebuild - ship. 33 days transit and counting from Singapore is extremely concerning :(
