Ya, but this was ordered in the 5th and declared shipped on the 8th and now it's the 23th and USPS indicates nothing but a shipping label has been issued. Canada Post's take on it something else again, mailed from Sweden?

This is standard, sometimes my stuff is "mailed" in 1h. In reality it never even got packaged. It actual mailing is sometimes much further. If shipping label has been issued it will be actually mailed within a week. You are bound to get something.

It is no mystery that some sellers sell stuff they do not have in stock - this gives them some headway as to when they need to ship it.

What really burns my shorts is that some sellers make it appear that they have stock sitting in a nearby warehouse waiting to be shipped to you, when in fact that is a big fat lie and you end up waiting for 2 months for a boat from China to arrive. Grrrr.
 
Well look what finally landed in Canada.....

So much for Bangood's ships from the US eh...
 
I'm pretty sure that (CDN/intermediary warehouse) must be the case with some AliExpress & Ebay sellers I've ben buying from because the package is postmarked SomeWheresVille Ontario.
Which might explain the speedy delivery sometimes. If that's what they are doing, perfectly fine by me. Shows more customer initiative than many sellers out there who still cant be bothered to ship to Canada at all. How the package zigs & zags on its journey to my house, especially during COVID times, really doesn't bother me. As long as its delivered within promised timeframe & items are as as they should be & there is some recourse for lost/missing/damaged items.
 
End Mills arrived today. Ordered Apr 5, so 38 days in transit. The original shipping label was covered over with a CP label so I couldn't tell if they actually shipped out of Sweden or not?
