China, to Hong Kong, to Dubai, to Germany, then presumably to the UK.

Doesn't seem unreasonable to me really. Shenzhen to HK is kinda the wrong direction but that's about it.

Germany being in there a few times isn't helping because your package never actually went there.

Interesting placement of Shenzen on the map there.

I have no idea of the route mine took except that the last two stages were Chelmsford, home.

It's almost as bad as my amazon Christmas parcel taking 3 weeks to get from Birmingham to Liverpool via Aberdeen.

Few years ago my Dad tried to hire a van to help me move from Leam to Warwick and was offered a van in Aberdeen. Either way he had to point out this wasn't exactly local (given he's Hertfordshire).

I think they tried Dorset next.

It hasn't actually done that route, it also traces the paper trail for import tax for some reason.

anyway you'll love it, it's a stunning device and other for the f1 thread on the other forum I haven't switched my desktop on.
