    Question about shipping

    Hello all, I have a question. I have had quite a few trades that I have made and have sent out.
    I am just curious as to how long it usually takes to ship from the USA to Canada.
    I shipped to Sweden and it only took 4 or 5 days for the other member to receive the package.
    Now my question is, is it normal for shipping to take a while to ship to Canada? How long does it usually take?

    Thanks for any help!

    It's been horrible lately, at least with the Ontario border.

    I'm getting messages from eBay buyers on the USA asking where their package (that I shipped two weeks ago) is..... I know I'm waiting on a couple that are getting close to a month.

    It's taken some of my packages MORE than 2 weeks to reach other Canadian destinations even! Canada Post in Ontario has been abysmal lately. Terrible service. Be patient, as it's better late than never!

    It's been all over the place. Agree with above, regular post will take a couple weeks. Try to be patient....I know it sucks.

    My only concern is that I am a new trader, and i have to send first which is no problem with me. However, I want to make sure that I can build a good reputation and it seems like the Canadian post my not help me with that.

    I don't think you have to worry. Most of us know that cross-border shipping into Canada takes a while so we know not to expect it for at least 2 weeks. If it takes longer to get to its destination, most of the time the reason is Canada Post, not the person who mailed it.

    I would not worry about that factor. If you make some trade the feedback will come in eventually. Member will understand it take more time to come in. The important thing is that is make it to destination. If you try to deal only with US member, you will miss trade opportunity and will take longer to build a feedback. If you do them now eventuall all feedback will kick in and might just take a bit more time.

    Delivery times are a crapshoot. It can be anywhere from a few days, to over a month...

    I am also having issues with shipping. I sent a trade out 3/1 from PA to B.C.
    Since I'm new i sent first. Got my end of the trade like 3 weeks ago! The
    poor guy in B.C. is still waiting. Should I be worried?
