    I ordered Jetfire and it took about three weeks. I currently ordered Trailbreaker stickers on 2/1 and havn't received anything yet.

    The question is, what the hell are they doing? How difficult is it to pack the sticker sheet into an envelope and send it? I could see the long lead time if they didn't have the stickers sheets already made, but it seems that they have most of them in-stock and ready to ship (at least that's what it seems to indicate on eBay).

    And $2 shipping on their website, but only $1 via eBay. Seems odd how eBay is the cheaper shipping method.

    He doesn't make the stickers till you order them. And the crappy Canadian post is the main culprit.

    Don't worry though..it's only been 10 days. When it gets out around 20 days, THEN I'd start to freak out.

    I as a Canadian must say Canada post is whack. Sometimes stuff gets there (US) in a few days, sometimes it takes a few weeks. I wouldn't worry too much yet. They are good at Reprolabels, if it did get lost, I'm sure they will shoot you out a new set.

    They have a FANTASTIC union. Great if you work for them but sometimes service can slide. Canada post doesn't work weekends. Cept at Christmas. It takes 3 days for package to get from Toronto to Halifax (~the same distance as Detroit to Boston).

    Yay! Got my set of Cobra labels in the mail!

    Post mark was 2/6.

    So:

    1/21 - purchased label set.
    2/6 - set was mailed.
    2/11 - set was received.

    Labels were well worth it though.

    I finally got mine from yesterday from my initial order from 1/18/08. Almost four weeks to arrive.

    They look good except under close inspection you can see jagged lines. Also, although they were able to replicate the metallic gray coloring, they weren't able to replicate the metallic blue coloring on some of Jazz's racing stripes (near rear fenders). Still a good deal for the price.
