    Hello

    After a protracted Production issue with DELL, My Vostro is FINALLY on it's way.

    I am in the UK.
    Can anyone , also in the UK , give me any idea of how long from my Lappy being on The Online status as:

    DISPATCHED
    to it actually being
    DELIVERED
    to me ?


    Thanks very much.

    mine was dispatched on a Friday morning, and arrived Tuesday (delivered by Walsh Western).

    bareing in mind they only deliver on business days, i'd expect it takes about 2-3 days to reach you once it leaves dells factory.

    Walsh called me the day before to arrange the delivery time / date

    Mine took 2 working days-ish. Sent to couriers on Sunday and arrived on my doorstep first thing Tuesday morning. The courier will contact you to arrange a suitable date/time ("Time" being am or pm)

    So it's likely to be collected 24th, delivery will be 28th IMO. 2 Days in the hands of Walsh-Western is typical.
