Mopar - D Posted September 23, 2020 Posted September 23, 2020 This is what I have 11:41 23.09.2020 RIGA (PARCELS/pakas) Receive item at office of exchange
AmericanMuscleFan Posted September 23, 2020 Posted September 23, 2020 I bought one too, mine has been shipped on September 15 and the parcel left RIGA for my country (Canada) on September 18. I have no idea about the transit time nor the quality of their products but I had to take a chance. I never bought anything from these guys but couldn't resist... the subject is too cool and I can't see the day when one will be released from the usual manufacturers...!
zaina Posted September 23, 2020 Posted September 23, 2020 I ordered mine on September 1st and it just arrived today. Very impressed but there was no decal sheet in the box. I sent them a message. Mistakes happen.

The cabin looks good... can't wait to see mine... it cost me an arm and a leg... thanks for our devalued canadian dollar!
Mopar - D Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 How do the rest of the parts look? If mine takes the same amount of time I should have mine in 10 days. My current tracking 14:28 24.09.2020 RIGA (PARCELS/pakas) Item sent abroad
niteowl7710 Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 (edited) Latvia is one of many EU counties that the USPS doesn't provide tracking for once it leaves the country of origin. So it'll just show up one day out of the blue like an early Christmas present. Not sure if the Canadian Postal authorities are any better with that sort of thing.

Spain for instance doesn't track it's own mail once it leaves the country on normal mail service. The USPS doesn't track it's own International Mail once it leaves the U.S. either unless you pay for higher levels of International Priority service. Edited September 25, 2020 by niteowl7710
Exotics_Builder Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 I just got a post from USPS saying mine has made it to their distribution center in Elk Grove Village Illinois and on its way to the Pacific Northwest. My guess on ELk Grove Village is that it is near O'Hare airport and it may have arrived there. This is the first notice since September 9 iby Latvia Post.
martinfan5 Posted September 25, 2020 Posted September 25, 2020 My order got updated to shipped like it was scheduled to, not sure I am going to even try and start tracking it for a few weeks.

EGV is right around the corner facility-wise from the Chicago ISC that processes International Mail in both directions. Sounds like they didn't pay for an equivalent Priority level of shipping though as EGV is a ground mail facility. Gonna get trucked the rest of the way.

niteowl7710 Posted September 27, 2020 Posted September 27, 2020 I have one of those Pistas laying around, my current "Track Like a Hawk" parcel is the new Aston Martin which left China the night before last.

I passed on the Aston Martin, partly due to RHD. But, I am looking forward to their RS6 Avant DTM that I hope will soon be available. Seems to be a take on this car

Next should be a HD full kit of their take on a Liberty Walk "R35" GT-R, then Alpha with an A-M Vantage.

Just wish they had more suspension and engine bay detail. But, the price would likely up to MFH levels
Exotics_Builder Posted September 28, 2020 Posted September 28, 2020 Wel, the USPS says the kit has reached the Portland Oregon distribution center this evening. So, Tuesday maybe. Will post photos as soon as it arrives
