JUST LET ME KNOW IF YOU PREFER TO MAIL YOUR PAYMENT.

I usually ship the next business day after payment...Monday through Friday. I know that there are delivery times for USPS priority and Parcel Post STATED ONLINE but actual delivery time can be 2, 3 even 4 times that long especially during the current Holiday Season.
USPS trucks used to pull out every night with packages to get to their various destinations but a new policy was implemented, that because of high gas prices, that the trucks would not be able to pull out until they were completely full. So they may sit there 1 TO 5 DAYS at each designated point on the route UNTIL they are full. This can greatly affect the delivery time.
Even though gas prices are low now, they are going ahead with the policy because the USPS is so far in debt. UNFORTUNATELY, they are not changing the stated delivery times .
Please understand that INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING (including Canada) can be delayed due to customs inspections and is beyond this seller\'s control.
