afspret Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 Thinking about ordering some stuff from Hannants, anybody know what the average delivery time is from the UK to the US now a days? Thanks. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Niels Posted December 25, 2020 Share Posted December 25, 2020 Hannants usually expedite quickly, but shipping time is more or less up to the postal service. Hence difficult to say. Various have experienced anything from 10 days to 2 months, so difficult to give any firm estimate on shipping time. It's all largely due to COVID and it's effects Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dogsbody Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 I've had stuff on my front doorstep, up here on The Backside Of Beyond, exactly one week from ordering it online. Average time has be 10 to 12 days. Chris Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's all largely due to COVID and it's effects I am finding the exact opposite here in Canada. I find that Hannants sits on my orders for a week at minimum and on average 10 days with the longest being 15 days. Then the Royal Mail and Canada Post bust their humps and get the package to me in near record times of 3-7 days. So the same amount of time as you experience but I put the hold up on Hannants not the postal systems. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Niels Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 OK. I think the essence is that these days things will take time, wether order build up at supplier or postal service COVID effects 😉 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RCNFAN Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 My order in the summer took 4 weeks to reach me in BC Canada, normal is 2-3 weeks. I have an order that shipped on Nov 12th and hasn't arrived yet so ya taking a lot longer than usual. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
11bee Posted December 26, 2020 Share Posted December 26, 2020 I ordered some decals earlier this month. Had them delivered in 2 weeks. Never had a significant delay from them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Scooby Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 My first choice for products shipped to Canada, they have everything, prices are great, and shipping is affordable. Recently I had a large shipment which included a kit and lots of aftermarket ship to Canada for less that the price of a photo-etch set shipment quote from the States.

In the past, it took roughly two weeks on average for my orders to arrive in the US from Hannants. This is before Covid. It might take longer now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RCNFAN Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 For sure, before Covid I would even get items sometimes faster than coming out of the States. I've used them for years and really like how they have their inventory search setup. I'm not to worried on my recent order, with Christmas and Covid I expected it to be slow.

Dutch Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 I have placed six orders for decals and small items (no kits) from Hannants this year; five by regular surface post and one by airmail. Surface packages all arrived within 12-14 days. Airmail package arrived within 8 days. Highly recommended! K/r, Dutch Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ReccePhreak Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 I have been ordering from Hannants for decades, always great service. My last package was large, with some expensive kits, so I selected "Airmail with Tracking". I noticed it took only 2 days to get from Hannants to New York City. After that, it took almost 2 weeks to get from New York City to my doorstep in Florida. The USPS (and other delivery services) are using the CCP-Virus as an excuse for their slow shipping times, but that doesn't explain the stupid way I see packages get routed, on their way to me. Even so, I will still deal with Hannants, as well as the AviationMegaStore in the Netherlands. They both get unique items that no one else seems to carry. Just my 2¢.

CreepyGuy Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 Mine is usually 10-14 days from Hannants to my front door in Wisconsin Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RCNFAN Posted December 30, 2020 Share Posted December 30, 2020 Just got my package in the mail today. Looking at the stamp it was dispatched from Hannants on the 12th of Nov and now its the 29th of Dec. This has been the longest one so far but still got here in good shape so no worries Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RichardL Posted December 31, 2020 Share Posted December 31, 2020 Placed an order on December 18th, and the package arrived at my front porch today, so 12 days. Not bad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
