sidewinder Posted October 23, 2007 Report Share Posted October 23, 2007 (edited) Good news from Mosaic. The Oliver Nelson is now swapped for a Johnny Smith (I paid the extra), pending availability of the Hodges (5-7 days). The Oliver Nelson is also on order from Amazon UK.

Cindy kindly agreed to apply the sale price on the Hodges. The order should ship in the next five days.

Van Basten II Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 By the way, is this normal that i have not received any shipping notification, despite receiving a confirmation order two weeks ago ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Nessa Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 The US doesn't charge duties on individual orders of compact discs, LPs, etc. imported into the country. I looked it up on the net once and found that they are specifically excluded, but I can't seem to find anything about it on the net right now. Also, unlike Europe, there's no mechanism in the US for inspection of individual orders coming in from abroad, assignment of duties to those orders, and then collection of those duties by the postal service or private package services (e.g., UPS, FedEx). The US does not charge duties on compact discs period. Nomatter individual or corporate shipments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LJazz Posted October 25, 2007 Report Share Posted October 25, 2007 By the way, is this normal that i have not received any shipping notification, despite receiving a confirmation order two weeks ago ? I think it's time to give them a call. Some sets are backordered, but I would think you would at least get something indicating that. Something doesn't seem right.

I was in the same situation as I didn'tknow that one of my sets was backordered. I had to send then an email to find out. I placed my order on October 13th and it hasn't shipped yet. I think they are snowed under over there but they responded to my email very quickly. Edited October 25, 2007 by ASNL77 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only way I knew my Hodges set was backordered was when I did the switch of the Nelson set. Yep, sounds like they are busy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What Customs collect on imported CDs is Value Added Tax (VAT) at 17.5%. The US doesn't have VAT. MG Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Van Basten II Posted October 26, 2007 Report Share Posted October 26, 2007 Thanks to those who answered my last inquiry. As usual Mosaic answered quickly my worries, the Jazz Crusaders set was in backorder. My whole order will be shipped at worse in three days.
