Please share your experiences and your destination if possible

It really varies. I've had one come in 6 days, and another not come for 3 weeks.
US.

I've had orders take up to 4 weeks to arrive to the US from NL!
Right now there might be some delays with shipping out of NL. The vendor Sangaba just posted on his profile about it. http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/user/b62a21a48e
Anyone else aware of current delays coming out of NL?

sometimes it doesn't come

Really, nothing good will come of finding out postal times for every country.
You may as well be asking for package descriptions and addresses next.

without being too specific I can say from experience as buyer and vendor that shipping times inside the EU can very very widely. I have seen delivery times
from 2-14 days between the same countries, exactly same type of package and labels.
I have actually received a package once from another country that was faster than 90% of packages sent from the same country I live in...
IF you really need to know the day of arrival (e.g. for temporary mail-drops) you will have to check the tracking number or have the vendor check it for you, but that involves
additional risks and/or work. So never do that unless you know what you are doing, In short, do not check via TOR nor your real IP.
And ask the vendor before ordering if he will give you the tracking number. I usually give it to them but at the same time inform them that I won't give any refunds if the package is seized, usually I keep the tracking number just in case there is some escrow-dispute (and of course only as long as the package is in transit).
