Anyone bought from Thomann recently? Experience?

My last order was in November for one of the BassBlock heads. Order placed on the 7th, delivered on the 13th.

My latest order was placed last Friday afternoon. (Simple stuff like strings.) I received the sent notification the same day, delivery due tomorrow (Tuesday). I’m in the EU though, so no customs.

I bought a whole bunch of XLR cables for a recording project back in May. It took about a week and a half which I thought was reasonable. Customs checks took an age but that isn't Thomann's problem. 

If I need something really quickly, I go for a UK supplier. I generally go for Thomann for buying their in-house cables/accessories which I think are really good value for money.

I found what had happened; I appear to have two accounts and was logged into the other one (which is an alias of my usual email address). I probably created the second one a while ago and forgot about it.
All the items are in stock but the order hasn't been processed yet (placed on the 15th).

Bizarrely it seems me posting this prompted some action!

My order is suddenly scheduled for delivery this afternoon!

 

Let's see what happens.

I ordered on Monday morning, got my notification of shipping late on Thursday evening with a DHL tracking number that is not yet recognised by DHL's tracking system.

 

My most recent Thomann purchase (Sadowsky MetroExpress Hybrid 5 fretless) I ordered on November 25th, I got a shipping notice from Thomann the next day (with UPS, not DHL. I wasn't given a choice during the ordering process) and it was in my hands on the 27th. I have to add I'm in the Netherlands, so within the EU. Therefore Customs wasn't involved. I paid with my credit card, I don't know if that affects the speed.

Ive ordered a few things recently, as others have said, there is a back hole in the tracking where the item sits at customs. I do find I still get the items within 4 days, depending when I order. I do try and order on a Monday so I get the time that week. Weekend orders seem to take an extra day.

It has arrived!
