Digital Rev delivery times...
Discussion
Anybody have any experience of lead times with these guys?
Received my dispatch notification this morning, suggesting that they'd be delivering by the 8th but unfortunately, the job I'm using the kit for starts on the 8th!
Some reading I'd done seemed to suggest that they operated a warehouse in the UK but this seems to be coming from HK...Praying that they're just covering themselves and that things typically arrive sooner.

I just checked the tracking and it's in bloody Leipzig of all places!
I hope that means an overnight trip by plane to Scotland rather than a truck or LHR to truck to Scotland (I'm in Glasgow).
In fairness, they've quoted 'by Monday' on the despatch note. I'm just praying its 'before Monday' so I can use it on a job!

Thats the DHL hub I think. From there it came straight to the DHL place at East Midlands Airport (which I live near...which also means 10-15min drive to Donnington Park! woo!). So I guess find out where the nearest DHL air freight place is?I hope that means an overnight trip by plane to Scotland rather than a truck or LHR to truck to Scotland (I'm in Glasgow).

As you say, from Leipzig, it arrived at East Midlands very early this morning and was in Edinburgh by the time I woke up. After breakfast it was in Glasgow and as of now, its in a delivery van headed my way...
And to top it all off, I've got to leave for a bloody meeting soon! Doh!
I'm impressed!

Through the store as I believed this was more relaible than the ebay option.
It is a poop situation but I knew that going the grey import route could bite me in the ass and to be fair to DR they have so far been helpful enough. I'm just dissapointed it's panned out this way for me when 99% of people seem to have no issues. Just my luck I guess!
To top it all off I'm suffering from Man Flu and I'm just damn right miserable at the moment. I think I might have to take the MX5 out for a late night blast tonight and blow out the cob webs.
Really annoying for you then! It puts me off using them again though, as I was clearly just lucky, and that's a rarity...It is a poop situation but I knew that going the grey import route could bite me in the ass and to be fair to DR they have so far been helpful enough.
