I think it took about 2-3 weeks to get something delivered to me in AB. But anyway, I imagine the whole postal system is probably backed wayyyy up right now due to this X-mas thing.

Also, USPS/Canada Post don't update quite like UPS or FedEX. They tend to go something like "Shipped," "Customs," "Delivered" and skip the in-betweens.

Order lots of stuff from Brice. Always the same 7-10 Business Days. As for the taxman, Brice has always been good in that respect. Great vendor, wish he sold RX-7 Parts.... or maybe he does, I've never checked!

By the way everyone have a very Merry Christmas and if that not your thing Best Wishes For the Season!

How long ago did your stuff get shipped? Remember that trying to get stuff shipped around this time of year is always assume that it will be either a) near the end of the original stated shipment date, or b) delayed.
MERRY CHRISTMAS AND HAVE A SAFE AND HAPPY HOLIDAY SEASON!!!

PS no drinking and driving!!!

USPS received the shipment on Dec 16th

The U.S. Postal Service was electronically notified by the shipper on December 16, 2010 to expect your package for mailing. This does not indicate receipt by the USPS or the actual mailing date. Delivery status information will be provided if / when available. Information, if available, is updated periodically throughout the day. Please check again later.

Be prepared for the brokerage fee when it arrives .... it will be COD

Depending on what you ordered it can be big bucks.

Why? USPS is awesome for us Canadian owners, rarely get taxed and custom fees, and no brokerage fees. Brice is great on shipping, I usually get my things 7-10 days, and most the time he has the better price cross the web. Ordering a cat-back from him soon.
