Has anyone had any experience getting a system shipped to an APO? My system was shipped on the 10th in 2 boxes. Received one this last weekend, figured they would be together, but they were not. Wondering how long it takes. The tracking numbers for APO shipments are worthless. It just says it was accepted on the 10th.
Also, whats the normal time frame to pass before you call about a lost shipment? I guess I'm just paranoid with such a large investment traveling halfway around the world.

Is there an inspection process for things going APO? I know customs would grab the rig and inspect it based on it's cost if it were considered international. Also, given recent events, it may be going under inspection for the sheer amount of electronics and the size of the package. I don't really know though, just trying to think of options. Hopefully DS can help you out.

Then again, maybe they sent it to DARPA or the CIA thinking it was theirs and not yours... thinking it was way too much power for one man to wield that computer Ermm

Give it a few days, this can happen with APO's.

Mine took over a month. Both boxes arrived at the same time, and in excellent condition.
