I have ordered a lot of stuff from Hong Kong using their Speed Post Service. I assume that this is how your parcel is coming.
Don't worry it is definately due very soon

EMS is expensive....
Although Where I buy from in Hong Kong I have never been charged more than $25.00US for a car kit and parts shipped together. My supplier uses Hong Kong Speedpost with a 3-4 day delivery time and on line tracking... Some suppliers do make profit on Shipping costs.
Andy at www.hobbymania.com.hk does not!!

Call the Aust Post EMS tracking centre and they will tell you where it's at. i.e. back at the mail hub, your local post office etc etc

Depends on what shop you get your stuff from I have gotten prices from several shops in HK and the price for EMS shipping varied from US$32 to US$18 for the same Items so just shop around and find the best deal on shipping
Buy the way the guy with the cheaper postage was also the cheapest price on goods also

David you're treading on thin Ice. The Australian Hobby Suppliers and Stores get very defensive over this subject. Seems they don't like the facts
