It's rather obvious why they do not bring the ILiad fast

The funny thing about arvato is that they are in the print business also. Here an exerpt from their website:

So if you get your ILIad you are one potential customer less for traditional books, so a threat to their market ...

And I would't say their weird - they have about 42000 employees (worldwide). I have worked with one of their consultants (they also have a consulting branch) and he was not weird in any way.

Got my tracking number this evening in an attachment pdf-file from prealert(at)ms-wismo.com, buried deep in my spamfilter.
The delivery date is the day after tomorrow.

OOooooooooooohmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Me too! Thanks to you, I went to check my work email, and I'd received it, around 8pm. How did you get a delivery date? I just know it's in Dusseldorf now.

I was being humdrum and thinking of Monday being the day... and I might well get it on Friday!

Order#592 In transit 19th July

Congratulations!!

It says so in the PDf attachment, right under the "delivery note" on the right side of "UB UPS standard CPT", above the article description.

Woohoo!!

I used that calculation form at UPS site. With standard delivery it should arrive the 25th. But of course it could take less.
