experiences with Amazon UK shipping

[Matt Stieg]

I live near Indianapolis and I placed my first ever order with AmazonUK on March 5 (ordered blu-rays of Sunrise, City Girl, Black Shield of Falworth, and Withnail and I). I received an e-mail stating it was dispatched on March 8. I then placed another order (this time blu-rays of Black Narcissus and Great Expectations) on March 12 and received an e-mail stating it had been dispatched on March 15. Being that these are international deliveries, I expected to be waiting awhile for their arrivals. Well, much to my surprise, my SECOND order, the one from March 12, arrived yesterday on March 18, only three days after being dispatched and shipped internationally! Yet my FIRST order, now two weeks old, still hasn't arrived and has me a little nervous given that it cost me $75. Anyone ever experienced a shipping situation like this from amazon UK? Is this normal?
