    Man i don't know how you guys are doing it. This week i've had 3 different ebay orders (not all china) that USPS has managed to miss-ship to the wrong post office adding days to my shipping time on each one. One order they miss-shipped & then marked it as delivered-cu picked up from PO. Fortunately they got it shipped to the right PO & i did get it eventually.

    i don't think it really had much to do with the seller, instead i think it was pure luck of the draw that things aligned and i got it so fast… but it was bid_bid_good. ;) 

    i've picked up a few things from this seller lately and has all been under 2 weeks.

    So the new link that Showz gave shows this. Interestingly while saying customs released my package, Nowhere else did the tracking number update. Anyone else have a similar thing here? Should it be on the way soon?

    Unfortunately the USPS is having a whole crap ton of issues atm. since a certain individual who shall not be named *coughs*Fat Cheeto*coughs* decided it would be fun to dismantle and remove all sorting machines in certain states all across the country. and is literally trying to shut them down.

    I'm worried about my 2nd Nicee getting to me as well. she's also going through USPS atm. :( 

    mine's about similar in that regard in terms of updates but as it get's closer to me the updates seem more frequent.

    and to be fair COVID is also a factor. But hey at least mine's in the states now. in fact I might get mine today or tomorrow. got an update via gmail.

    That being said, I hope you receive yours soon as well, friend. :) 

    I know it sucks balls. But we have to try and keep our wits about us, and not drive ourselves insane by worrying so much. Shipping Worldwide atm. is a little slower than normal.
