Yep.  Mine has taken around 16 days to get to JIMC (Jhb International Mail Center?) .  Been sitting there now for 5 days with a status of 'Held by Customs' - which I'm assuming actually stands for 'dumped with all the other sh1t3'.

 

Maybe by I'll get it as an XMas present - but I'm not holding my breath...

It will get to you, I have a frame which was shipped on 25 September, on the 3 November it finally got logged onto the system, and has been to customs and is now back at JIMC. Am just waiting for it now to be sent to WITPOS before delivery at my local PO.

 

Stuff is at least moving and my PO box was full this week with mail unlike the previous last couple of months.

There must be a bunch of Chinarellos sitting in JIMC!  These logs are pretty much exactly the same as mine.  The probably all arrived on the same ship :-)
