Photopass CD Delivery

[scottishgirl87]

I'm nearly finished editing our photopass pictures. Our lowly 38 has turned into nearly 200.

Can anyone tell me roughly how long it'll take once I place my order? I've already pre-ordered the CD so just need to finish editing and place the actual order.

I bought a photo frame over in Disney that I'm just dying to put a picture in!

Mine was delivered about 3 or 4 days after I placed the order.

Yes it was 5 days maximum on both times I have ordered the CD - very fast!

First time we ordered it was within a week.
This last time it took 3-4 weeks. It showed up on their website saying it had been shipped within a couple of days so DW phoned them after a couple of weeks to say that hadn't arrived yet . They sent them again with no problems and we ended up getting 2 lots within a few days of each other.

We ordered ours last Sept(Aug Holiday) everyone else posting they had recieved in a few days ours took 3-4 weeks and only after chasing it up.

We also made and ordered a calendar for my Mum for Christmas with the same order. This came within a week but when we called to chase up the CDs they sent us another calendar as well - even though we had clearly told them that we had already received it. Bonus

Really?! That quick? I have sent post from the US that has taken around 2 weeks to get here. In fact last year we sent a postcard to some of DD's friends the day after we arrived. We were there 16 days and it arrived here a week after we got back. That is good news!

If you ever send a postcard put it in an envelope and send as a letter, postcards are treated as junk mail, letters take priority. We send post to friends in US often, I post on a Wednesday they usually recieve Mon-Weds following week (5-7 days) same when I order anything off Ebay from US very rarely takes more then 5-7 days.

I was told that about postcards by a holiday rep about 20 years ago in Spain, peopel were getting home before postcards but in an envelope they were recieved within a few days.

Now that useful piece of information was worth the cost of my monthly broadband!

I will add envelopes to my list of miscellaneous items to pack

The money came out of mine before we left Not sure about the memory book as I didn't order that.

Can't find a pic of the frame online but it's a simple black frame with Mickey's on the corners. My room is red and black so I thought it'd go perfect

It has been for me this week yes, its made it very hard work to get into the swing of editing.

I'm hoping to try again at the weekend and then complete my book and send off the order ASAP

Tasha - I've used edited photo's in our book previously and you just need to make sure you check the borders so they're not overlapping with the book ones. The quality of them has been fine when printed in my previous book

Any photopass pics can be used in the memory book. You can even upload your own photos and ones from previous visits if you want.
The only downside I have found with the book that we did was that when we got it the pictures did seem to be a lot darker in the book than they appeared on line. I have seen others comment about the same thing too.
