Select sa post office in the list, then just type in your tracking number and "submit"
It will then show you where in South Africa your package is, if it has arrived, otherwise, it will just give an error message of some kind. I use it often, and have always been able to tell me when and where my parcel is.
By the way....I think 6weeks is a bit early for USPS so it might not have arrived in the country yet.

    It Finally arrived. Took 2 months which I suppose is quite fast in comparison to what others have waited.

    Visashi It Finally arrived.

    Awesome!

    Visashi I ordered a set of CS69 pups from ebay

    Right! Now you owe us a sound clip ?

        really great to hear your pickups arrived. happy playing ?

        NorioDS

        Please elaborate how Aramex works?

        Let's say I want to buy a set of Fralin pickups in America. Do I just provide my American Aramaex address to the seller (Fralin, EBay seller, etc.), they ship it there and then Aramex ship it to South Africa from there?

        Do they skip SAPO? How does customs clearance work?

          Voodoo

          Pretty much hit the nail on the head. This completely side-steps SAPO but not customs. Not sure about how that part is handled as I haven't used this yet! Just have a buddy who uses it. My guess is that you pay when it hits SA.

          A lot of folks get stuff sent as a "gift" to avoid that. Not legal and not recommended but it is something that happens ?

            Voodoo Nice, look forward to hearing about your experience! It's so frustrating living where no one wants to ship!

                NorioDS hi, can I get in contact with your friend that does the shipping that way? I would love to get more information about the procedure

                  Visashi will do!

                  Order placed and will (according to FedEx) be delivered at the aramex address today.

                      Visashi Cool, I've asked him if he's keen to help. He's not on here yet.

                          @Visashi My bud says to be careful of importing instruments. CITES on rosewood could mess you up.

                          Other than that, I just know he orders in tech stuff (aquarium lights, gadgets, etc) without any issues.

                          I'll update if says anything else ?

                          13 days later

                          Pickups delivered earlier today! Order was placed on the 29th of March, so I'm very impressed with Aramex.

                          I'm going to let Foster install the pickups next week, can't wait to test it out!

                          Great news! Looking forward to the sound clip ?

                            NorioDS Does that mean if I order a new guitar from the US with a Rosewood fretboard it could be problem? What happens? Do you get charged more to try bring it into the country?

                              Too long, I ordered stuff in December one arrived last week. A second item that unfortunately did not have a tracking number is gone.
