Title: Shipping Time From USA to Canada 2weeks + ??
Post by: canadaianchronicpain on March 24, 2012, 05:30 am
Hey I ordered some MS sulfuate from thedman62, i know he has good reviews and shit. i also ordered some benzos from somsone else  that said they would be from the states. this Monday made it 2 weeks. the benzos arrived today (Friday, almost 3 weeks) and they are from Singapore( hahahaha) now, my question is, with all the Canada post and USPS issues in labor and shit lately, would it be normal for something to take so long from the USA, when a package from Singapore arrived first? I have not received a Love letter or anything of that sort. Just kinda confused, not too sure what to.

Anyone from Canada order something from the states? I live in a MAJOR canadian city (not in the middle of nowehre) Sorry guys, just starting to get concered.

Thanks!!

Yeah just wait it out. When I placed an order from Canada it did take an unusual amount of time to arrive.

Don't forget the USPS is on the verge of bankruptcy too... that can't help the situation at all. Delivery times are only going to get worse and worse from the US.

this is very strange, I ship out letters to USA and it takes on average 4 business days, but 1 made it in 3 business days..

Today is day 20 since finalization for a package I'm expecting from the US to reach me in Canada. I have reason to believe it was shipped less than 20 days ago and that others are in my same situation with this vendor, but either way, its a darn long time. I'm not giving up hope yet though.

I have seen shipping times nearly double to some smaller locations ( not major cities ). Proximity to the customs sort facilities ( NY and SF ) is almost irrelevant which didnt use to be the case ... its the proximity of you to a local facility that isnt closed or understaffed that matters now. I sent something from west coast canada to west coast usa and it took 11 days recently ... used to be there in 4 or 5.

Xpresspost is still within time frames I am seeing ... expedited parcel and small packet have slowed down considerably.

longest I had was 8 days with a holiday interruption so 9 days should be the max
