shipping delay?

[crowbartool]

I placed my order on the 2nd and it was shipped on the 7th... prolly took a while cuz of the may holiday in china...

All the orders i have placed out of china take about 4 days to hit customs, 1-2 days in customs, and 1-2 days to deliver

This order hasnt even hit my country (canada) yet
2010/05/07 International item mailed in origin country

Anyone else have slow shipping atm? I didnt hear of any boat sinking lately... hopefully it's not just me.

Fear not. Your package and mine are together, heroically holding down the barbed wire so that the hordes of Low resistance attys can achieve their destiny.
Frustrating I know, but every now and then the Chinese customs officials (or whoever) get bored and play hide the parcel.
Hang in there, it will get there.

So how long till my package is gonna actually leave china? Any clue what is up with this? It's been 14 days now since I placed my original order... is there something eastmall can do to get my package to leave china?

every once in a while china government orders a surprise random check on packages going thru the customs system

there was one of these last week.

maybe this is something to do with it being delayed.

Got an email from rick of eastmall. Looks like my order got lost in some random inspection.

Rick told me he will reship and add a free gift for the delay.

Im now impressed with Eastmall customer service!

Hope you get it! I've had an order in transit to Canada for 3 weeks now, shipped 4/28, hasn't even hit customs yet (EMS).
