I bought an item off of ebay from Germany on March 29th. It hasnt arrived yet and I'm starting to worry as I need it for the weekend.
When (considering the 4 day bank holiday weekend + sundays) would 7-10 days from March 29th be? This friday?

Indeed Marty, German eBay is the way forward Especially for French and German parts (like your BMW)
