The order you've written it doesn't correspond with dates. Or I'm reading it backwards.

It's copied and pasted directly from USPS tracking gimmick,the most current activity is from top to bottom.

If it's been like that for a week, seems customs are hanging on to that package. I would try to contact them if USPS won't help. I don't know the procedure for customs but if they were that interested in it wouldn't they contact you and /or the sender?

This is the 8 or 9th parcel I've received from them and this is a first to get hung up, just didn't make much sense but I kinda figured they're hanging on to it or it's misplaced ?

Maybe it's just part of some random search, kinda like you do at airport security. With all the business they do to the US, they really should have a US distributer/reseller.

Agreed ! Wouldn't that mean a mark up prices though ?
If there is as, long as the difference doesn't exceed the price of ordering from afar with S&H charges.

I'd imagine there would be a markup, but if it meant a vastly shorter wait period and the chances of shipments getting lost or hung up somewhere, I'd pay it.

DAMMIT,
Worrying that my packs will not show for the weekend and the tracking results being somewhat confusing so I'd thought I post to see what you fellers thought. Low and behold the packs showed this afternoon ?

The tracking for the overseas delivery has undesirable qaulities But at least they showed.
