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. :)
I agree with you that's why it's important to anyone shipping me anything to fill out the customs form properly. Like you said, a smaller package that is light and has low value will pass through rather quickly and undetected. However, if you look at the shipping weight of the package I received, it weighed 2 lbs and 14 oz. That's almost 3 lbs. It was also valued at $180. Don't tell me that the MMM weighs close to 3 lbs . Since you shipped me my original MMM before, you know too well how much it weighed including the Priority box. I also received it from your post office in about 8 days and taht's coming from New York.

Oh by the way, the box is 20" x 10 1/2" x 8" because it contained the revo extended chassis (foreground in the pic) plus other revo parts I bought.



There are only 3 things that could have happened; either it was delayed, lost or it was not shipped at all. I'm hoping it's the first one.
