Default TNT Post

Does anyone know how long it will take a package to get to Australia from the Netherlands coming on TNT Post?

Cheers James

Shouldn't take too long, should be less than a week. I used to work for tnt. Freight time wasn't to bad. You should have a con note number or tracking number to keep an eye on its travel time.

Did you get it yet?

Aus Post shouldn't do anything... TNT is an end to end international freight company. It's got a massive domestic network in Aus, so it should get delivered by them.

Nah not yet! Mrs was shattered lol It was sent as registered post....TNT Post is Netherlands equivalant to our Aus Post so they deliver it to Aus Post over here then they take care of it. I spoke to Aus Post on tuesday they do have it just going through checking and say maybe by friday. So fingers crossed it comes tomorrow.
Could have gone with Courier option but they wanted like $80 compared to Free Shipping. Yeah I know im a tight *** haha

Australia post seems to be quite slow. When getting stuff from England its always about a 2 week wait last time (some sneakers) it was 3 weeks to the day. Sending stuff the other way is always quicker. I put to down to the strict customs here and what you are and are not allowed to bring into the country and this time of year id imagine they are rather busy.

Good stuff you are not getting it from the U.S I have 11 models that are being sent priority mail. They were scanned as leaving the U.S on the 4th, still not in Aus. Aus post said everything leaving the U.S is extremely delayed because of security screening after thos bombing attempts using toner cartridges. Apparantly even express items are taking 3 weeks. So I won't hold my breath I see them before chrissy. Also I hope Customs checks your parcel quick. They had one of mine from the 3rd of december and it was only passed through last friday.
