proulxlaw: Count on it that US Customs is holding it up, and quite possibly playing with it (it has happened before) That Canadian Tracking number won't do you any good until you see it at your door, and it ~may~ show as delivered the next day (may take as many as 3) I speak from experience, as I just sent a static T1 to Michigan, and I could have driven down there and back in less time than Canada Post, Customs & USPS took to deliver it. Why don't USPS and Canada Post carry the tracking numbers over to each other's system? Who knows... but the only way you get usable cross-border tracking is with Expedited or ExpressPost options, or a courier like Purolater, DHL, FedEx or UPS. Again I speak from experience as I ended up having to upgrade shipping options on my belly plates after one got lost on its way to England (only one 'lost' of over 2 dozen, and to my best customer!) It arrives or it doesn't, but Mato has proof ~something~ was mailed, and thats the best you can do, eh? They aren't at fault for delays due to USPS and Customs, and I'll note many eBay sellers are putting this waiver in their postal areas these days... services are getting sloppy, perhaps? Give it time.
