How about 2 weeks from Belgium to Holland, bringing the packet with a bike is faster 
Next was a hd dvd from UK, this one also took 2 weeks 
Now I'm waiting for some parts from Canada, tracking tells that it left Canada on sep 3th and still no go 
Our customs don't need to work all week because they might get tired

Mine arrived on Wednesday, was installed Thursday, and have been sitting on tissue paper for a couple of days checking for leeks...and just now have re-installed and fired up the Barco 1209s...and all is good with the world.

Just received the package from the mailman here in the Netherlands.
 Thanks a lot, Arno and Athanasios!
Had to pay 25.22 euro for additional taxes and fees, but that makes it still a very good deal.

I am glad most everyone got them, that tax crap sucks ! But i wanted to insure them to be safe better to pay a bit extra then loose the whole cost of the element and shipping if it was destroyed. So i valued each Element for 150 incase you had to then get them from VDC.

Now if we can find a suplier if the first lens on the HD10GT17's mine were scratched in shipping. I am in e-mail though with a company that applies the AR coating. I think that is whats scratched only, I hope. If i can buff out the lens and romove all the existing coating they can re coat, but at what cost....this is what I await.
