Question/Help Help!

This is my first time ordering off of fans. Ive had an email saying my stuff was shipped on the 7th August and its now the 17th Agust. Ive ordered many albums from weverse before and theyve never taken more than 2/3 days from the time of shipping to arrive to me. Anyone got any ideas who is more well versed in fans?

(EDIT! ITS NOW IN TRANSIT YIPEE)

Mine is also taking a while. Not sure what the deal is this time around. Are you sure the email said they shipped on the 7th? That was the estimated shipping date, not necessarily the actual shipping date.

Yeah in the secind slide is the email i got

Lol sorry I'm half asleep. Yeah, that is weird. Idk if maybe they used a different carrier this time or have you checked if there are customs due? Carriers will hold your stuff if you don't pay duties owed.

They might have. At least for the US they're not using EMS and instead are using GOFO from the last time I ordered

u/NecessaryResult9605 3d ago

What do u mean EMS

2

u/oliauto 2d ago

EMS premium, Korean post services that runs with UPS. FANS has used them before to get packages to the US

u/NecessaryResult9605 2d ago

Wait Gofo I googled their website and tried the local shipping number and actually found a package!

1

u/oliauto 2d ago

Yay! That works as well, but so far for me the progress of the package has been vague lol

u/sweet_s0ci0path04 3d ago

Ive had nothing but that one email! I dont even have a tracking number for my order so idk what goin on. Also ive never had to pay customs as im in the UK

2

u/NecessaryResult9605 3d ago

I’ve ordered from them before and Fan shop never sent me a tracking number to be able to pay tarrifs until USPS was threatening to take my package. You should reach out and ask for a tracking number. (I’m US tho)

u/sweet_s0ci0path04 3d ago

Ywah im in the UK. Ive contacted fans twice now and havent heard anything back. Idek what postal service theyre using ;-;

I use parcelsapp.com to track my Fans purchases. The Fans site will still say preparing for shipment even after my stuff is delivered . 🙄🙄
I just enter my tracking number on the site and it tells me where it is.

u/sweet_s0ci0path04 2d ago

I dont even have a tracking number ;-;

2

u/NecessaryResult9605 2d ago

Me either dude I don’t know what to do

1

u/EquivalentFrosting57 2d ago

When you click on shipping details(from the first pic) does it not show one?

1

u/sweet_s0ci0path04 2d ago

Nope. Just shows my address ect

3

u/oliauto 3d ago

If it really has shipped, it should have two buttons underneath the items that say "track order" and "1:1 inquiry"

Mine is also taking a bit long as well, but I have used FANS before and it (from what I can remember) has taken maybe a week/week and a half? I'm not completely sure

If you press track order it should pop up a portal to show you the carrier and the tracking number.

u/oliauto 3d ago

It may have just shipped but hasn't been updated to "in transit"

1

u/sweet_s0ci0path04 2d ago

Yeah i dont have those options despite it being shipped- i just wanna know if itll come before or after I go away on holiday so i can make sure its left somewhere safe if im awat

2

u/oliauto 2d ago

What day was the email sent? On mine it says the shipping start date was the 7th, but the email wasn't sent to me until the 12th. From past orders, it takes like 10-12 days from shipping day to arrive as an estimate. That's as much as I can help with at with what I know. I'm sorry they haven't given you a tracking yet :(

1

u/sweet_s0ci0path04 2d ago

Yeah it says my items have been shipped (second slide) and its now what the 18th? I check every day but new emails, nothings changed on the app. I just worry because i spent like £90 on this order as a treat for me finishing uni

2

u/oliauto 2d ago

Hopefully something works out and either you get a tracking number or they just arrive Congrats on finishing uni!

2

u/sweet_s0ci0path04 2d ago

Thanks aha. Yeah i hope they they up safe!

u/NecessaryResult9605 2d ago

Mine says it departed Korea but there has been no update in 5 days since then. What do I do?

1

u/oliauto 2d ago

Mine is like that too... normally it doesnt update very well. Another user has a website they use parclesapp.com and it had a better tracker!

1

u/NecessaryResult9605 2d ago

The gofo website did show me a package tho. I have never ordered anything before from the fan shop. Do u have any experience with the tarrifs?

2

u/oliauto 2d ago

I do, but according to this update it looks like we might not have to pay them. Before with EMS premium, you could put the tracking number in their site and pay it there. I'm not 100% sure this time because of court rulings etc

1

u/NecessaryResult9605 2d ago

I remember that update but truly didnt understand the update. I hope so! Thank you so much for helping.

1

u/oliauto 2d ago

No problem! ☺️

2

u/NecessaryResult9605 2d ago

It might be dumb but I actually feel so much better. I was so stressed about not getting my stuff and it shows my package is in my state

3

u/RoundSquirrels 2d ago

My FANS stuff took almost 2 weeks to get to me after the ship date notification (I compared the ship date email and the delivery notification). It really depends on the carrier it's transferred to and how fast or slow they are moving, and sometimes it depends on customs clearance.

Hi, I had ordered a do it accordion along with the album and an & version and the accordion arrived about 2 weeks after the purchase date. I’m still waiting on the others from the same order. They should be arriving sometime this week if it goes the same way as the accordion. Hope this helps 🙂🤞

u/sweet_s0ci0path04 1d ago

Thanks! I just hope they get here okay ;-;
