....Attemped delivery?! great, but whats that all about - I have no card or anything to suggest an attempted delivery, do i need to contact someone to pick it up or what??

What do I do?

Also, thanks for the videos - the unit looks great, hopefully i'll have mine in a few days and it wont get returned to sender - that'd be a mess!

I have had the same with no card posted:
Attempted Delivery Abroad, June 07, 2008, 8:50 am, GREAT BRITAN

I believe it is parcelforce who handle the USPS parcels, it may be worth giving your local branch a call.

EDIT: You can enter your tracking number on to the parcelforce.co.uk website..it will also give you a new reference number.

mine says:
Service: Parcelforce 48
Status: Held

07-06-2008 Awaiting payment of charges
07-06-2008 Arrived at delivery depot

Mine is sitting in Parcel Force Swansea. Need to pay customs charges to release it for delivery.

Just phoned my local parcelforce direct and paid the charges via credit card

I got stung for £31 VAT + £8 Handling charge, but this means i will now get mine delivered tomorrow.

I used the website http://www.saynoto0870.com/search.php to search for company 'parcelforce' this gave me the geographical phone number of my local depot.

hope this helps you guys get your SE quicker, as the normal process is for them to send you a letter telling you to call and pay charges. Calling them before you even receive this letter will speed things up.

The USPS website wrote for me: "Attempted Delivery Abroad, June 03, 2008", eventhough I didn't get a card or anything. Five days later I had a card from the custom-office in my letterbox..."

Like I wrote above I picked up my VCI today... So I guess you will get to hear about your unit pretty soon.
