My parcel from Romania took 6 days of actual transit time. (much much longer wait overall though)

Longest was 7 months of actually being in transit from hong kong for me.

I can't figure out why it takes so much longer to send out of Canada than in to Canada. I think they sit on parcels until there's 'enough' to fill a crate before they send anything instead of processing and passing along upon receipt.

Apocalypse, your parcel will go Wednesday morning. I'm curious how much time will take to arrive to you, compared with USPS. I can't understand why, for two parcels sent in the same day, from same office here, one arrived in 6 days (NNF's) and the other is still out in the blue (Bypah's).

BTW, Bypah, the first parcel I sent to you taken 3 months to arrive. :| :| :| :|

Bypah is several hundred miles west of me, i would assume a week more transit time, but not much more than that.

Its usually a customs delay that increases times, but once past that its standard delivery workflow.

Then of course there are post office "gremlins/goblins/whatever you call em where you are" that mysteriously add time to the trip for no reason, only luck gets you past them

NNF, is ok, I can get what you say, but is an official tracking website where on March 4th is the last announcement: "Inbound out of customs". After that, Twilight Zone...

Well, at least I know it arrived at the ISC in NY and got out of customs on March 4 @ 1:55am. :roll:
So it says it has been in "transit" for almost 25+ days from NYC to OK????? :shock:
If the package was sent regular parcel it will take that long. If it was sent like "priority" it will arrive a little more faster. At least that's the USPS mentality. :|
The worse part about this is the customer service of USPS which it SUCKS!!!!. They can't even tell me where the parcel is!!! :shock: :shock: :shock: :shock:

Hi people.How`s it going?

I have got a big bunch of spanish rations and I would be interested in trading them for other rations. I`m interested in russian, israel, or south american countries rations (well, I`m much more interested in vietnam rations or WWII but that would be difficult).

I can accept any other offer you may feel interesting, obviously.

Take care, people.

Rations Reviewed: USA, spanish, french, UK, german, denmark
