Some items may be delayed if held by customs for additional inspection. Canada Post has no information on specific items awaiting customs inspection. Once an item clears customs, it is handed over to Canada Post for delivery. Delivery time depends on the product and the distance to its destination.

I ordered a product across the border April 4th, 2011. Finally it is on it's way! What a wait! I am so happy my order is coming!!!!!!!!! This is the first time anything took this long to come over here from the states! I am a happy happy vapor girl today!!!!!

Wow! Thats longer than normal from Alaska, wonder what customs was doing with it for the last 20 days! Mine from them usually take 10 days, and they go south from Alaska to one of the southern states where is is sorted then shipped back up north to Canada! Seems a bit odd to me. I picked one up last week that spent 1 minute in customs, lol:

My package was in and out of customs in under 2 hours. I got it on April 27th. Mine went via the movie star route. Hope it had a good time in LA.

I placed my order on April 4th from Alaska. It just cleared customs today as of April 30th, 2011. That is 26 days that it took to clear customs from the time I ordered. My product was sent on the 5th of April. It landed into customs on the 10th. I have been waiting literally 3 weeks exactly for it to get through the border. Finally it is in Canada post's hands. It should be arriving at my doorstep in hopefully 3 days. That is INSANE! I will not rest until my order is in my hands! I have been freaking out over here for many many weeks! UNBELIEVABLE!

I once sent a secret Santa gift that went east to Toronto, where it sat for 9 days, then it went to Calgary, to Couver town, then to Saskatoon, then Winnipeg, some place in Quebec I can't pronounce, where it sat for another 14 days, then it finally cleared and crossed the border to go to Pennsylvania, which was it's original destination. It covered almost all of Canada. Talk about the scenic route. It took 42 days to get to it's destination. If I hadn't been able to track it, I would have sworn it got lost or stolen. My poor secret Santa recipient thought she'd gotten stiffed.

Don't ever send anything across the US border when a new president comes into office. They'll treat it like it's a bomb and you are a terrorist, and hold it ransom for a month in customs, then another two weeks in customs on the other side. It looked like a terrorist had tried to blow it up, when it finally got to it's destination.

Wow, I ordered an eGo that I later found out was coming from China, and it still only took 7 business days.

There's not always rhyme or reason when it comes to customs, but I'd imagine you should be receiving it soon.

 

[Danesnpits]

I won't rest until it's in my hands! UGH....this wait needs to be over already! I got things I need to do! Needless to say, I had a sneaky suspicion it was searched and seized. But it's not thank the lord! You just never know these days. Last time I order from this route. Will be now looking for Canadian suppliers underground!

Danes, maybe the sled dogs got caught up in a blizzard while crossing the mountains.

They also could have run into one of our many igloos.

 

[Dusty_D]

Wait wait, I've got one too..

Maybe they're waiting for the "pass-through" to open, once the snow and ice thaws in the spring.

 

[rolandpibb]

Sled dogs ran out of back-bacon?

 

[Mudder]

Well without a pass through, you can't pass through. Bloody hell.

 

[AlbertaClipper]

I blame the blackflies.

 

[Danesnpits]

Well, my parcel left Richmond BC today. It will be a full month for sure since the day I ordered it until the day it shows up on my doorstep. UNBELIEVABLE!

From the time mine left Richmond, it was only a day to get to Toronto. So you should have it in your hands very soon.

 

[Danesnpits]

I heard alaska is out of things to sell..seems everyone jumped on the bandwagon after the ban.

 

[Mudder]

Touch wood Danes. Hopefully it doesn't get blown away in the winds they are predicting. Hopefully the pony express has a good saddle bag.

 

[Danesnpits]

Ok so I just checked Canada post tracking and my package arrived today! Exactly one month from date of purchase. They tried to deliver but just left a card so I will go pick it up tomorrow. Wow, never going this route again!
