If anybody here is both a 4.A owner and a Herbie Hancock fan, I might add that the album Head Hunters sounds incredible. I highly recommend the 4.A for jazz aficionados.

Ordered mine 11/24, shipped 12/9 and arrived at my door 12/14. Probably could have shipped 2 days earlier but I needed to make a difference payment for shipping due me picking wrong choice. I thought the 4 Ai was shipping from USA rather than China.

How long does it take for Heir to ship out (not the travel time) their non + universal iems? I'm in USA. Is it being shipped from Heir USA operations?

 
Non-custom products and accessories ordered by customers in North America ship from here in San Diego, please allow a couple days for processing and then two days for your to actual reach you once it has shipped (orders in the US ship via UPS 2nd Day Air).

I did order the 4 A.i + premium package so mine came from China

I agree with this......
 
I have the 4.Ai and spent last night listening to Miles Davis' Bitches Brew and Sketches of Spain, followed by some Etta James and John Coltrane. All of these sounded amazing via my modded iPod - The National - 4.Ai

Hmm.. Tracking shows no activity on the impressions sent off to Heir since they left Denmark on the 5th of December. I sure it isn't lost somewhere.

Which kind of shipping service did you use?

 

[Staal]

Local postal service. Haven't had any problems shipping with them before, so I guess I just ran out of luck

Same here. Sent off on 22/11 with local postal service. Since then.. silence. Lost in China. I hope they're just in a pile of parcels in China customs, along with yours.

Yesterday I was at my local post office and I asked about shipping with them to China. They said the delivery times greatly vary to China, and the tracking will only confirm the reception there once it's delivered, if chinese postal services has their system working properly. It's always a gamble with the tracking, but they said the packages do get delivered. I was also told that sometimes packages are held for long periods of time at chinese customs. If you din't use "door-to-door" tracking (like DHL, UPS, etc), there's no way to know exactly where's your package right now...

Well my tracking is still showing 15/11 International Hub - Forwarded for Export
 
I am sure I paid for more tracking than that!
I'm going to have read the small print now I think.

I think you're looking at this the wrong way. Your local postal service has no influence on how often (if ever) the Chinese postal service will be updating that tracking info.

True - but I'm sure they sold it to me in that it would be tracked "Every Step of the Way"
 
At the very least they should have updated that it had arrived in China

If the service you paid is from your local postal service, I think you won't get that kind of tracking. It will be tracked until it leaves your country, and then the tracking would be done by chinese postal service once it arrives there. But it seems that doesn't happen quite like that...
