I bought a case of us mre's of ebay two monts ago. Had a simmilar issue. The tracking said it had left the origin country and no more. 7 days later it updated and said it has been at customs the while time. Sounds like the issu is that the customs has not processed it

I have had numerous occasions of the US Postal service not updating the tracking information on international tracking numbers until the day of delivery.

Same here too - most times I get something internationally it'll sit at either the sending country's customs or us entry customs for the bulk of the time it's shipping then all of a sudden it'll be at my house and I'll get a delivery update. Sometimes it'll start moving in-country first, but that's never a guarantee. A sitting shipment since the 4th (today being the 11th) is nothing to worry about. I'd even give it beyond the 24th, but it'll probably start moving again soon. Never had a problem coming from Lithuania and I've ordered through that seller before too.

Update:

Today I received my French and British rations, the Denmark rations was not delivered :shock: I'm guessing that it got separated somehow and will be delivered next week. If not, then it was probably rejected by customs.

If customs reject your package or just hold it. Do you get notified ?
