What countries have you had problems shipping to/from? Problems with slow service though, not lost mail.I've had a number of packages to Singapore and also Australia take a solid 6 weeks to get to their destination. I've also had a few packages coming from China that took well over a month to get here.

USA - to be more specific, LA area.40+ mails I've sent to USA took at most 2-3 weeks (each) to reach it's destination, and that's with 1 week counted during which the package traveled inside Croatia. However, on 2 occasions when I've sent to Los Angeles area it took 4-5+ weeks which is quite odd.

Never have have much problems on shipping times. The only time it takes quite a while is if the package is registered because anyone that touches it has to sign for it, has to be locked up, etc etc. Just adds a lot of time to the movement of the package.

Europe to Canada is pretty slow sometimes. USA depends how far. Japan is also really fast here, surprising as I'm on the east coast.

International seems to always be very hit or miss, even to the same countries. I've sent a lot of packages out to various European and SE Asian countries (and of course to Canada). The vast majority of these packages get to them within 2 weeks, and occasionally 1+ month, but it's inconsistent which countries take 1+ month. For example, sometimes Canada will take 1-2 weeks, sometimes 1 month (even without the strike a few months back).

Trade with me, my trades tend to take 2-3 weeks only.

Canada is very inconsistent, anywhere from a week to 4 weeks. Just had my first package arrive from Singapore, took nearly 4 weeks. No problems with Europe.

Only time I had problems were domestic. Once it took two weeks for me to send a card from Boston to San Francisco. Other time a package from Michigan was returned to sender and then somehow resent to me halfway back to the sender.

Thats interesting. France and Japan are the only countries that I've sent to that handle registered very quickly. Usually it will take 3 or 4 weeks to most countries, but when I send registered to France and Japan it is always under a week.

I've never really had any problems with slow shipping myself, however, there was a BTA case were one guy sent out on Sept 22, 2010, and it was not received until April 5, 2011. How's that for slow shipping?  Thanks,
