USPS Priority airmail quotes 6-10 days I think but some things take longer , just luck of the draw . Also some bits are held by Parcelfarce whilst they send you a VAT/customs bill out before they release it .

................takes about 5 to 6 days max

Your a lucky boy!!

Even with the fastest/expensive postage options, it usually takes over a week.

All the other options are variable.  2 weeks to months.

I have some magazines coming from Canada by snail mail.  They only left Canada 3 weeks after they were picked up.   I think they are coming across the atlantic in canoe!!!  :(

If its important and hard to get hold of, then pay the extra and track and insure it!!   Even the snail mail options from N. America seem expensive these days!!  :(

So a few extra quid for peace of mind is worth it!!  :daumenhoch:

  no. don't worry yet.  10 days is quoted usually , but 2 weeks is not unusual.
