Title: Kuwahara lost in post, pic included
Post by: davym2112 on August 31, 2012, 08:30 PM
I got a nice survivor Kuwahara magician ex from the states a while back. Looked to be in really good condition just minus wheels. Posted from the US using usps and arrived to UK customs for clearance on 2 nd August.

Released to Parcelfarce on 7 th August and promptly dissapeared. They are trying to track the bike down without any luck so far. >:(

Anybody else ever had any problems like this . Royal mail seem to be getting a lot of bad press at the minute about the amount of items stolen while in their delivery process.

Bike is very distinctive, grey frame with pink bars, post, decals etc. I will try to get some pics put up on here in case it appears for sale somewhere. :police:

Had a nice set of tuffs and tires sitting waiting for it ......

Here is the bike

Might be worth popping in to your local post office and checking if there is anything there waiting for you. My frame from Canada took about 2 weeks to get to the UK, and then about another 6 to get to me!

Phone the MDs office at parcelforce and kick up a massive stink, they in turn will track it down. I used to work for them and this was the best way of finding anything in the black hole that is Parcelfarce and phoning customer service is no good as they are pony

I tried the local post office, they gave me the number to ring customer services. They confirmed it was processed on the 7 th August at 7.10 am in the morning but records seem to show it has never left the sorting depot in Coventry.

Were able to tell me it would also be £95 customs duty payable .I never got the usual letter for the charges to be paid before delivery

You need to contact the depot , it might be sitting there waiting payment and you never got the letter , make a fuss and demand them to find it
