I have had packages take 5 days to get here via priotrity mail and other packages take 2 days via priority mail from the same place. Just FYI - I do tend to ship a lot pf packages, so I am pretty familiar with the ins and outs. :)

Believe it or not, sometimes packages simply go missing(via UPS anyway).
I had a friend who was expecting her dell laptop that she'd bought. We tracked it to the local UPS office, went there and they didn't have it.
All she could do was file a claim and order a new laptop.
I don't think she ever got the original shipment either.
Not tryina scare anyone. Just sayin sometimes things don't go according to plan as I am sure you are aware.
