thanks aprilgail....we know you sent it out.
sometimes these Canadian ones just seem to take forever. Another week sounds like a good amount of time

We received something but unfortunately will have to wait until tomorrow to check it out! Or maybe will have to wait until Tuesday, the postal person did not mark what day it will be available!

Also just a word of warning, packages may take a little longer than usual due to the fact that Customs Officers' Contracts have run out so they are "Work to Rule" which means that they are doing their jobs "To The Letter"!

They were saying that line ups at the Borders were 2-3 hours in waiting to cross!

Will let you know as soon as possible!

One good thing, it has not been returned to you, so it means it's a comin!

If you still have not gotten it by Friday I will go out Friday night and reshop and get it out on Saturday. Was there a shipped date on the Disney exchange package you got? I am just curious if that one took long to get there too.....

According to the Post Mark, it was sent out July 24, 2004! Also this is the first time that I have seen the "Customs Stamp"!

Ok, stupid question, Did it go Air Mail?

Like I said before, don't worry about it! It will eventually show up! Plus with the fact that Customs are "Work to Rule" right now, it's gonna take longer.

Be Patient, give it at least until next Wednesday!

I'll keep you posted!

Well now thats a good question isnt it.....they gave me two prices and I sent it the more expensive so I am assuming it did....boy I am never sending anything with no tracking again.....I did have it in a priority box and the post office guy told me that since it was not staying in the US it could not go priority....

I've learned never assume with the post office, right Nancy!LOL

Believe me I know first hand that sometimes you can come across someone who tells you one thing but it actually turns out differently!LOL Happened to me with the Cookbook Exchange!

Let's be patient and give it awhile longer!

Sorry Nancy!

LOL...I think we all learn that lesson sometime or other
We've had things go VERY fast and things go VERY slow!
You just never know.

 

[Scratch42]

Not today!

I talked with the postal guy who delivers the mail at work, he said the customs people are creating a backlog! He said it's a mess!

[Meriweather]

That's too bad. Guess we will just have to be patient.
