i have items in "Sent to airlines" status since 18/7/2014 is it weird that they didn't arrive to Lebanon yet ?

If it is shipped via china post airmail, I have many items having the same status and around the same date.
Wait few days more because there is a huge amount of parcels awaiting processing.

I have items since beginnig of month 6 that hasn't  shown and others from mid of month 7 shown as received the 22nd. I
t is a matter of luck it is not first in, first out.
The weared thing in the declaration of LIBANPOST that they will start in delivering in the next few days (date of declaration 19/08/2014).
I do not know the few for them! how it is measured? it can be 5, 30, 50 days or even more.
Nothing is precise or mesurable in any of announcements in this country. 
The only thing we can do is to wait, Ask for extension or open dispute.

Maybe it was a small campaign to frighten people, so they stop mass ordering!

Re: AliExpress in Lebanon

I have an item with status Item received at Sorting Center since 22/8/2014 and not yet handed to customs,
another item for a friend of mine handed to customs since 11/8/2014 not yet cleared.

Looks like the customs can no more handle the massive amount of parcels been handed to them to libanpost, not to mention as well that they work at their ease.
Bottom line we have to wait a lot to get our parcels.

Re: AliExpress in Lebanon

Received 4 items today prices ranging between 3 and 60$.
I didn't pay any additional fees same as usual.
The period ("Items on hold in customs for clearance") between "Items received at sorting center" and "Items sent to distribution center" ranged between 30 and 40 days.
Hopefully within few weeks this period will be shorter.

looks like LIBANPOST has stopped updating their tracking system to avoid people pressure on their delivery centers. I shall check my P.O.BOX tomorrow and revert.

Re: AliExpress in Lebanon

A friend of mine got a call from liban post,  they said they will deliver her items on Monday,  and she has to pay 6000 LBP for each item,  items were ordered around  2 months ago.

Re: AliExpress in Lebanon

he has to pay 6000, because his items are in a PObox, he can pick them up by himself, if he doesnt want to, he pays 6000 per item (happened with me before the customs thing)

Can you please reclarify, I have a P.O.BOX does that mean I have to pay 6000 LBP for each item ?

Re: AliExpress in Lebanon

If you have a PObox (according to libanpost), they won't deliver the item at your door, they will deliver it to the PObox you have, so you have two options

1) go to your pobox in person and get your item.
2) they deliver it to you for 6000 LL PER ITEM.

Re: AliExpress in Lebanon

Or you get the below service:

The P.O. Box redirection service: redirects automatically the mail received from the P.O. Box to the subscriber’s address for a monthly fee of 44,000 L.L. TTC in addition to the regular P.O. Box yearly subscription fee.

That's what they say on their website.

Re: AliExpress in Lebanon

Dear all,
Thanks for the clarification, I have not subscribed with my P.O.Box for any special services like SMS, Redirection or home mail delivery.
I always pick up my mails personnaly.
I though the 6000 is some of the new creative ideas they came out with.
Regards
