Hi,
Im from India and have purchased a mobile phone on ebay.com from a US seller located in LA. The item was shipped on 3rd Nov 09 (IST) and the mode of shipping displayed for the auction is "International - Standard Shipped on: 03-Nov-2009". The shipping doesn't have a tracking no. I asked the seller why he hasn't provided a tracking no. and he said that although he charged me $30 for the shipping, when he reached the post office, they told him that the full charge would come up-to $70 if he also wanted a tracking no. Hence to avoid the additional charges, he shipped the item using the non-tracking no. method. Now after reading all the replies in this thread about Custom Charges and CHA, and although today is only the 6th day after the item was shipped, I am a little worried whether the package will arrive safely or not. Also, how do i now know which courier was used by the seller and which courier in India will be used to deliver it to me. Im located in Mumbai. Can someone please help? Thanks, in advance.
