I'm on day 13 waiting at the port and still not on a fucking boat... should I be worried?

[jpsimon]

ok nevermind. BMW has been playing with my heart... it left on a boat last week... i just haven't been able to track it. and the other bmw people i spoke with didn't tell me the correct info

[Bostonian]

Congrats! Which boat is it on?

[jpsimon]

I'm not sure... it left on the 21st on a k-line ship (so i can't track it, right?). I should be going to NY, but it's going to SC instead

[bmwguy80]

Congrats man.... I was pulling for you!

[jpsimon]

so i think 2nd weekend of December i might get the car?? we'll see

[orientblue3]

Yea, I was about to tell you not to panic because that's what happened to me. The status takes awhile to update. Your probably well on your way already. Congrats!

[Trainwreckor]

Thats good to hear! I was wondering if it had just shipped through a different shipping company.

[jpsimon]

yeah supposedly it left on the 21st!

[bmwguy80]

Strange... if you do a search on the NYK Line site, it doesn't show any ships leaving Bremerhaven on the 21st. They have one that left the 19th that is due into Charleston on the 29th though.

[jpsimon]

if you look here:

one left nov 21 from bremerhaven



depart nov 21, arrive dec 6 in SC vessel Hanjin Kaohsiung

[bmwguy80]

Nice!

In case you haven't seen this, you can check to see if it hits Charleston earlier than expected here... http://www.port-of-charleston.com/vessel_schedule.asp

Weird, but the itinerary also shows the ship going to Kansas City, St. Louis, and other in-land cities. I assume that means the cargo on-board. Or else the ship's a Transformer.

[jpsimon]

ah cool. it says the same date (dec 6) as of right now. i sure would like if it got there earlier tho!!

[bmwguy80]

LMAO... I noticed it said Columbus, OH (which is where I live) and was wondering the same thing. Transformer ship... neat!

[jpsimon]

what sucks is that i'm in CT.. so it would make sense for my car to get off the ship in NY on the 3rd... but for some reason its going to SC.. just to be shipped right back up north. I think this is happening because origianlly i was going to do performance delivery... and then had my CA cancel it. She told me she changed the destination to NY but i have a feeling shes wrong since the 800 number people told me the car is going to SC

[Trainwreckor]

I was just checking out the K line website and looked at the car carrier schedule. Are you sure you are on Hanjin?

There seems to be a boat called the Caribbean Highway that also left on the 21st due in SC on the 12/6. 2 days earlier than my boat and mine left on the 19th.

i'm not 100% sure which boat i'm on. the 1-800 number people said it left on the 21st, and should arrive on the 6th

I would find it hard to believe that a CA can control what port your car is dropped off at. I would imagine that it is controlled by BMW and is based on how busy each VPC is at that time. (Unless you're on the west coast, then it'll obviously go to Cali).

I know! And I was really feeling bad for the guy.

[jpsimon]

well i think originally it was supposed to goto NY, then when we switched it to performance delivery it changed to SC... and so i think she could cancel it and have it go to the original port?

but who knows
