Well that's just great.
Royal mail just provided me my tracking number this morning. Hmm.

Thank you. That explains things. I have been expecting an order for the last couple of weeks. Now I know why it has not yet shipped. Guess I won't be ordering from The UK for a while.

Before that, there was a big strike during December, just before Christmas holidays, that delayed the orders made from the end of November.

I'm extremely concerned about this.

This is all that's going on, and I doubt it's gonna change. However, this was supposed to be "expedited" mail.
What if my books are damaged if they're improperly stored? This is a matter of a lot of dollars here.

It seems things have resolved.
Global shipping center emailed me today to tell me they have begun shipping my order from Royal mail.

I am glad your order is being shipped. I just received one order yesterday but no shipping update on my other UK order yet.

They notified me and said it’s shipping and on the way.
