Update

Hi Everyone - I have not dropped off the planet, life has been busy and I have unfortunately locked myself out of my hostess email address by forgetting the password (yes, that is my state of mind these days!). Penny, Just saw your post and you and one other person are waiting for packages. Both are going to Canada, and if not sent Priority Mail, I'm not sure how long is reasonable to assume Customs takes. I have not put up anything about round #2 because I have been waiting for these two to arrive. One was an angel package for Leslie, the other is your package from your original partner who re-posted after the first one did not turn up. I know the angel package was posted ~2 weeks ago, I will get in touch with the other sender tomorrow (since she also volunteered to Angel, I am not thinking it is a flaker!). Since my school has wrapped up and I have 2 weeks before I have to travel again for work, I do hope to get this all closed out soon. Apologies for the delay on the last two packages :(

Usually it is not long for the mail to arrive, a couple weeks at most but it does depend on where it comes from I think. Customs doesn't keep the packages long so I don't know why either if two were sent haven't arrived. If it has a tracking number the sender can have it traced and it can be looked into even if there is no tracking number. Maybe when I move I won't have problems anymore ????? BUT I do get most of my packages. It is only the odd few that do not arrive.

Hi, I'm not a member of this swap (lurking around until the next round starts :o)), but as a swapper I have sent many packages to Canada (from Wisconsin). They ususally take about 1-2 weeks. Also, if the sender still has the receipt from shipping, there is a code on there with which they can track the package (even though the post office says there's "no tracking"). It will at least say when it gets shipped, clears customs, etc. Hope the packages find their ways to their respective recipients soon!

Still waiting for my package. I wonder if it will get here by tomorrow as my address changes on Thursday but my mail is being forwarded to my new place.
