Hmmmmm, getting a little worried now that my Fright Night BD from screenarchives might have gotten lost in the post. Only 2 more days of deliveries left in 2011. Wonder what the chances are of it turning up before next year?

I've never used them, but it's possible the package has been caught in a backlog of been overlooked in the sorting office.

As mentioned in another thread, I've ordered Sexy Beast, The Departed and Final Destination from the Play.com sale.

Pre-ordered Arrow's Frankenhooker from Amazon, but unless it gets shipped tomorrow, I doubt I'll see it before wednesday.

Haven't got mine either. Would be a worry if just one person was waiting. I think we're okay, it's just caught up in Christmas delays.

I've another Christmas present (Blu-ray) still to turn up from the states.

Don't think we should be panicing just yet.

Post from the US can be ridiculous sometimes. I've had items turn up any when from 3 working days to 5 weeks.

From what my brother said from his experience from working as a temp in the sorting office, those were the only days the Darlington branch was closed, with the Newcastle sorting office working 24/7 (I'm not sure about Christmas and New Year's Day).

There are no deliveries on public or bank holidays, but sorting offices work round-the-clock to ensure all the mail is available to be delivered when delivery staff return to work.

I'm sure none of this does anything to lessen your frustration about the undelivered disc, but that's how I understand Royal Mail works.
