baldylox Posted June 21, 2020 I woke up to my shipping notice for Jupiter as well! Hooray! I'm glad lots of others are getting theirs too. I can't wait to see all the pretty photos of these girls when they arrive home! Billy 2 I gave up counting the girls I own, they keep multiplying and won't stop.

justsomedollies Posted June 21, 2020 Woo! Go DHL! She’s in my state already, I expect she’ll get delivered tomorrow 😄 Of course the estimated delivery date hasn’t updated, still says the 29th, but there’s no reason for her to take a week to go 200 miles 😆 Fingers crossed!

bbotss Posted June 21, 2020 (edited) Now I'm wishing Volks had given me the option of paying extra for DHL. Both my packages are still sitting at the post office, and from my recent experience with EMS from Japan, it can be anywhere from 1 to 4 weeks before they get on a flight 😭 Please post pics of your Jupiters to tide me through my wait!

Yeah the school uniform is in the Cincinnati Hub. It still says the 29th, but I don't think that's going be true unless there are no domestic flights and they have to truck it across the US. Jupiter is still in Japan, but I'm thinking she'll be in the US tomorrow or Tuesday. Edited June 21, 2020 by BeyondTime 1 The difference between Dollfie Dreams and Heroin? Heroin is illegal, Dollfie Dreams probably should be. “Empty wallets, full hearts.” That’s probably an apt description for the effects of DD addiction Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's odd, I've been getting DHL packages in like 2-3 days total? One of them took a while because they handed it off to another 3rd party courier, but another one made it here instantaneously. The one that was handed off to the other local courier got handed off within probably 2 days? It just took the courier forever to get it here.

justsomedollies Posted June 21, 2020 Yeah DHL packages have come super fast to me from Japan lately. Guess we’ll see! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeyondTime Posted June 22, 2020 Weirdly Jupiter has been picked up in Japan and also shows 8 days till delivery just like the uniform that is in the US. We'll see what really happens, but I suppose it's possible they have limited domestic flights. The difference between Dollfie Dreams and Heroin?

Moved fast until then though. It’s probably coronavirus related, Los Angeles isn't far from there and has the worst outbreak in California Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mizuumi-no-Otome Posted June 22, 2020 My Jupiter has finally started moving! Estimated delivery on the 29th- kind of a long time for DHL Express in my experience, whenever I order from Mandarake my packages arrive in like...1-3 days from the time the package gets picked up lol. No problem though, that's still about a week and I'm glad she's finally on her way. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeyondTime Posted June 22, 2020 (edited) 40 minutes ago, Tokimemofan said: It’s probably coronavirus related, Los Angeles isn't far from there and has the worst outbreak in California I would expect the slowness is Coronavirus related, but quarantining packages would be pointless. You're unlikely to get it from a shipping box, and the virus could just as easily get on the package post-quarantine as it could pre-quarantine. All it would take is one infected person to cough near it. They think it's safe to shop in the super market even with all those people touching the card processing machines and the food packaging. The real danger is in someone coughing near you and splattering their diseased goop all over your face. Edited June 22, 2020 by BeyondTime The difference between Dollfie Dreams and Heroin?

justsomedollies Posted June 22, 2020 So Mako’s school uniform is out for delivery today but Mako herself is still chilling out in Cincinnati 🙃 Maybe they’ll release her today and she’ll be here by Wednesday? Oh Volks, I wish you would let us combine orders 😅 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ylse Posted June 22, 2020 Using 17track I can only see that both packages have left Japan. PostNL is kinda slow on the tracking pickup so no idea at what date they will arrive. Gotta just check daily 😆 My Instagram 😬: https://www.instagram.com/ylse_marije/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
milkytea Posted June 22, 2020 I'm also in the group that got the shipping notice for Jupiter after her uniform. Both of my DHL packages are meandering my way. It's possible that the uniform could be delivered today, but I wouldn't be shocked if it was delayed. I've been having parcels held due to "emergency disruptions", so I wouldn't be surprised if that were the case again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeyondTime Posted June 22, 2020 (edited) Mine is at the local gateway hub now, so I kind of doubt it will be 7 more days, but we'll see. Things are definitely slower than normal, and with EMS service down I bet DHL is overloaded and that is slowing things down. It might be that it's 7 days before they can get it on a truck for delivery. Edited June 22, 2020 by BeyondTime The difference between Dollfie Dreams and Heroin?

ninagrim Posted June 22, 2020 I received the uniform in the mail this morning, according to my tracking Sailor Jupiter might arrive tomorrow. Both items were shipped by DHL to America. I put in my orders a few hours before they stopped being available from Volks so maybe the time the order was placed doesn't effect when it ships. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BeyondTime Posted June 22, 2020 (edited) The uniform is out for delivery, so the 29th wasn't the right estimate. Edit: The uniform has been delivered. Really hoping Makoto will arrive tomorrow, but she's still in Japan, so it will probably be Wednesday. Edit2: 5 seconds after posting the edit I refreshed my tracker and Makoto is already in Cincinnati. XD Edited June 22, 2020 by BeyondTime 2 The difference between Dollfie Dreams and Heroin?

baldylox Posted June 22, 2020 I got my uniform today too! My Jupiter also said she should be here by June 29th but so did the uniform. I'm hoping she will be here by Saturday June 27th so I will have her for the doll meet the next day. 😄 Billy I gave up counting the girls I own, they keep multiplying and won't stop.
