Default Premacon shipping time

Out of curiosity , can anyone tell me shipping time for parts ordered from them to USofA ? I find it hard to believe 3-4 days to here . Maybe in germany.

I get stuff out of Europe in half the time I get it from the states... The record for me thus far is 2,5 days & it was sent 10 - 14 day regular post.... Not to mention shipping is cheaper too.. go figure?

depends on how it was sent and sometimes it depends on how busy the carrier is.sometimes when i ship from one of you guys it takes 7-10 days and sometimes it takes 4-8.i got stuff from korea and it almost always takes 8 days to make it to me in canada.another factor is idiots that may have put it in the wrong destination bin.i got something shipped from indiana and it went to florida ....jersey...new york..then crosed the border into canada.that one took 3 weeks to get to me

This is oldish thread but people might still be searching for it:


When I ordered things that were in stock with them (aka 3-4 days), it was more like 3-4 weeks. However they were pretty prompt and courteous after alerted of the delay. I honestly think small orders with them can fall behind a bin or something and be forgotten. Such has been my exp so far.

Also they list the handling time, not shipping time. DHL can take anything from 1 week to 4 weeks. Depends on if you have to wait for the pallet to fill before they load it on a flight or if its almost full and your package gets put on right before the shipment bulk is manifested and sent out.

I order from Germany and Austria at least once a month and it varies depending on when its loaded onto outbound flight. Then once in US, usps can drop the ball and take up to week, since they treat it as regular mail parcel (vs first class or priority). Not unusual for over a week for 700 miles distance from customs clearing point of entry to my location.


As for lead times, customer service is giving you the max allotted time listed under the product. im sure if they could, they would give you a later date. That's for 2015. Will see if they deliver ahead of max time or later. Seems like sales are good
