That doesn't seem strange at all. Looks like every shipment I get from the US. I predict it comes on the 24th. I don't know what you expected it so early, takes at least 7 days, if not 14 to me and you're not much closer:blush:

Wow, my COV orders get here within 4-5 days and they are chock-full of nicotine and caromizers, and doesn't even come with a tracking number. In terms of mods from the classifieds, it usually days about 7 days total for it to get to me. What has been worrying me is the lack of further checkpoints after the 11th.

I'm not sure with an LC number. Funky, what did you pay for shipping? Expedited or standard rate?

Yeah I don't even know what the LC means. The guy said that he would cover shipping if I remember correctly, so I send him a $15.00 bonus and told him to upgrade it if he could. He told me it was shipped Priority International. Mind you it is an Ody kit Plus expansion, plus extra ceramics and widgets, so it might weigh a fair bit too.

Nic, cartos, and tracking # have nothing to do with it. It's the method by which it was sent. First Class is the most popular method which doesn't come in under 14 days to Canada, usually. COV must send it to you by one of the express methods if you get it in 4-5 days as that's not the norm, I tell ya! :p I really doubt you'll have it for when you wanted it but you will get it eventually.

When I mentioned the cartos and nic I meant that they even clear customs without issue within minutes. IF I saw the Ody in a package and didn't vape I'd probably think it was a flashlight. It is confirmed, this is the one he used:



Given that it shipped on the tenth, there is still a chance I might get it today or tomorrow :D

Then I just have to master the Ody in less than 24 hours and I'm all set

Looks like I'll be right about the 24th prediction :laugh: I do hope you get it before then though.

Yeah you'll be right on the money with the 24th lol. Today was 7* though and tomorrow will be 8*, the average of the window, let's hope I can transcend the odds :D

Thought I might as well update the thread, as I have learned a bit aboot the shipping process. Even though my particular package had several "check-ins" listed, there was nothing actually requiring it, and it was basically just luck. The only time a package will hit every check-in point is with Express, which mine didn't have. So, while I still don't have the package, I'm not panicking as much that it hasn't been appearing online. Everybody cross their fingers for tomorrow...

Well I coulda told ya that :p They're not required to scan in anywhere except for delivery and generally most of these packages only track to the border anyways. Sometimes there will be no update at all, even via Canada Post, until it's been delivered.

I think you pretty much did, but I am so used to getting stuff so quick and having tracking all the way I had no idea that they were sending it Express almost every time. I am always going to fork over the extra cash now, this wait is killing me. I stopped buying cartos and atties thinking it would be here super quick and now I'm down to my last three cartos and last 306 :D

Done and Done my Good sir. I wish I had the cash for a VV Woodvil. I love my First Run bloodwood/ebony, but the VV is too tempting.
