JIMC must be one big place if it takes so long for parcels to travel from on side to the other

Guys, the post office tracking page is not working and I've tried trackmyparcel.co.za. Is there any other way to track a local registered mail item?

http://sms.postoffice.co.za/TrackingParcels/TrackNTrace.aspx <<< supports international tracking numbers now

Don't hold your breath...

http://sms.postoffice.co.za/TrackingParcels/TrackNTrace.aspx <<< supports international tracking numbers now

Or install this desktop client: http://www.trackchecker.net/
They also have an Android APP.

Useful if you have to keep track of a lot of parcels.

I ordered something from Durban, it's now sitting at Capemail. Does Durban not have a direct line to Gauteng?

Ok so I had the wrong tracking number.

Also bought an item off eBay and the seller used a company called Asendia for delivery. Tracking number cannot be tracked outside of the US and SAPO also cannot use the tracking number. USPS tracking indicates that they are still waiting for the item. Tracking number is UM#########US.

Something I ordered from GeekBuying

1 Incomming International 2016/10/30 12:00 JHB INT MAIL CENTRE

Note to self - don't be a cheapskate, pay for DHL next time

 

[*SynergyX*]

ive received 2 income parcels - one in october and one in november. exactly 3 weeks from posting from usa and uk.
no delays clearing customs.

 

[Jola]

Just received a small parcel that spent more than 6 weeks in Customs.

Documentation was all in order.

 

[EchoZA]

Update on my parcels;

1st parcel 13 days from China to South Africa and 25 days to process through JIMC
2nd parcel 18 days from China to South Africa and 14 days to process through JIMC
3rd parcel 19 days from china to South Africa and 18 days to process through JIMC
4th parcel 19 days from china to South Africa and 18 days to process through JIMC
5th parcel 19 days from china to South Africa and 18 days to process through JIMC

So the average seems to be around 18-19 for a parcel to get through JIMC

So now that all my spare props have arrive, lets hope my drone arrives next week, it was 32 days in transit from China via Netherlands (due to the Lipos) and arrived on the 5th at JIMC.

 

[AndreKotze]

Just received two eBay orders together, one from 06/10 and the other from 14/10...

 

[Rouxenator]

Still waiting to see when these show up :
Oct 04, 2016

Oct 19, 2016

However some of them have estimation dates in December
