It's just that Rapha until now would ship with dhl express, even with standard delivery, so the moment it was dispatched you would get it the next day. With royal mail is a whole another story since it goes to the local post office and from there it depends on the mailman. Most of the times the mailman here is slow so I pick the stuff myself. I guess I either got spoiled with Rapha or I expected that this premium service would stick for the price I pay. So from next day delivery now I'm looking at 5 working days.

Is 3-5 days for an international delivery not an acceptable period of time? Seems ok to me. You can always pay to have it sooner, that's what everyone else does.
I've been shopping from EU retailers recently (strong pound to Euro) and they have very similar (if not worse) timings to UK addresses.
