How was the package sent? EMS USPS? I have had packages help up in customs but the most was 10 days. I did finally get it. Hope it works out for you.!

How long is TOO LONG sitting in customs????
I'd say 14 days! it's time to call the number you find at the tracking site, and they can tell you if your item is "stuck", and not being released.

14 days isn't too long, sometimes it could take a month or longer. What is probably happening is they are taking a sample of whatever med you are being mailed, waiting for results, then hopefully sending it along.

Hopefully, but of course it is a controlled substance so I'm fearing the worst. Thanks for everyones' replies, I've been ordering overseas for years and this would be my first seizure I can't complain.

Hey pengirl, you say you've been ordering for years, and this is your first time its taken so long rite? How long does it usually take in your experience? Shortest to longest customs clearance times i mean.

Well well well! I guess posting about it produced some movement. She showed us in todays mail.

I've popped my proverbial LL cherry!

Said something about writing in to claim it if I wanted to. Otherwise if they didn't hear from me, the contents would be destroyed and the matter would be considered closed.

I've always read how they wanted you to sign it and send it back? Maybe they've changed over time?

I still haven't rec'd a LL, but it has been "reviewed by customs" since Feb. 2 (according to tracking). Obviously I'm not getting it, but I've always gotten expected packages within 2-3 weeks.

I've had orders sitting in customs for longer than that and have eventually received so there still is hope that you will get it.

From some place overseas, STILL stuck in customs as of today. Another order from another place has been stuck there for a couple weeks now. This is ridiculous. However Ive had literally hundreds of things mailed to me from overseas from ebay of all shapes weights and sizes and to hte best of my knowledge none of them were ever opened by customs. All hope isnt lost yet, Ive had things mailed form overseas take longer, but its getting tight. Theres 3 packages coming to me i mean one of them has to make it right? if anyone has any similar stories that end happily i really need to hear them now haha.

If you have a tracking number, try the numbers close to yours. If you find they're all still stuck in customs, I wouldn't worry too much.

Ive tried numbers within 10 to 15 of my tracking number and none of them register in the system. Going on a month stuck there. Im beyond pissed. I paid around $350 total for several different med packages, the fact not even 1 has gotten to me yet upsets my a LOT. Its not even about the money, I Need hte medication frown

I ordered overseas once,and it took awhile but was only at customs for 24 hours and then shipped. I think if it's stuck there and for days, that means it will stay there. Contact the merchant and ask them to re-ship it out to you.

Thanks All - I was sitting here wondering the same thing. I've had one sitting there since 6/1. At least now I have a little hope instead of zero hope.

Did you ever recieve yours? I've had 5, yeah count em, Five different orders from 2 reliable places, all with tracking numbers, trapped in customs for..well the longest time, 2 1/2 months now. Ridiculous. I cant take it anymore! i ordered from 2 different places, thinking if 1 doesnt come through the other will. Well they both came through, and got stuck in customs.

After a month, I complained I never recieved my order so they reshipped it. That order has been stuck in customs for 2 1/2 weeks now. I also made ANOTHER order, just hoping the numbers game would ensure that 1 of them would get to me. It didnt have a tracking number, and as of 3 weeks since it was shipped, it hasnt gotten to me either.

Has anyone gone through anything similar to this in ontario, please, tell me of your stories and if you ever got anything you ordered here, especially recently..

I try not to have deliveries sent express because it raises red flags. Regular letters are the best. Tracking just gives me anxiety.

I did make one order with regular mail, after so many people said that was the way to go, and its still not here. Can anyone tell me how long regular mail orders from wholsale usually take to get to Ontario? I believe it was sent out to me on June 17th. And it has yet to get here. Any help with that will be hugely appreciated..
