Tayda tracking (EU info)

Post by Pollinator95 »

So I ordered some stuff from Tayda the other day, and after a couple of days they sent me an e-mail with a tracking number. Is it just for the lulz or can I actually use it somewhere? It says "shipped by: Custom" beside it. I found a company called Custom but the tracking number is invalid. :picard:

Edit: moral of the story is, if you're in the EU and want to track your package, choose registered mail.

If you pay for Economic Express, it seems that they bundle a bunch of orders into one big package, ship it express from Thailand to the US, and then priority mail it from there.

If you go for the standard delivery, they use whatever the equivalent of the USPS is in Thailand. I think this is their tracking page, but I wouldn't expect much: http://track.thailandpost.co.th/trackin ... px?lang=en

It usually takes between 2 and 3 full weeks for my orders to arrive with standard delivery.

Edit: And now that I see you are in Spain, Economic Express probably isn't an option for you, and your delivery times might be completely different. Sorry about that.

As you said, Economic Express isn't available outside the US.
My tracking number doesn't work on that site, but it's the same two letters - nine numbers - two letters configuration *scratches head*.
Anyway thanks for that, I'm going through the search results for "thailand tracking".

That didn't work either. Nevermind though, it's just it would save me a 50 minute trip to the post office to see if the package had arrived.

Here's a crab for your troubles: :crab:

...and it's here! Package was surprisingly small, I was expecting it to be bigger. I think it shipped from Germany.
The 1N914s look a bit weird, but a quick search showed that was normal in Tayda orders and they work fine; I got double the amount of TL072s I ordered, so that was nice! :omg:

OK. I placed another order the other day and chose registered shipping to see what happened. Last time my package came from Germany, but this time it's coming from Singapore. I don't know if that's because of the shipping method or there was another circumstance, but hopefully it'll arrive soon. This time I did get a tracking number that I can use in the shipping website.
