Farnell are superb here (New Zealand). They dispatch orders from Australia which is 2 or 3 hours behind us. I can order up to about 6 pm one day NZ time and the courier (usually) deposits the order on my front porch at about 6:20 am NZ time next day. (12.5 hours later). The two countries have over 1000 miles of ocean between them plus the notional need for customs clearance. Good service.
