It is being shipped economy. That means it is being shipped by bulk on trucks or planes that hit multiple centers, unload everything then reload it. I have had several packages shipped this way and tracking showed it to go back and fourth across the continent twice before finally arriving in my state. It also took a week longer than standard mail would.

Printing since 2009 and still love it!

Re: USP SHipping SUCKS the Big one.

First of all, we shipped it by the method you selected (Priority Mail International), not economy. As noted on our website, typical time in transit is 2-3 weeks. It has been 6 days so far, one of which was a national holiday and 2 of which were the weekend.

Second, we lose money charging $60 for international Priority shipping. International shipping costs us, on average, $67.

Third, actually most Canadians customers complain about DHL and UPS, and ask specifically for USPS as it cuts down on their import fees.

Fourth, I wish it only weighed 3kg, we could offer a lot cheaper shipping. The package weighs about 6kg.

Re: USP SHipping SUCKS the Big one.

jjhcs2, please look at the tracking numbers in your screenshot. You are confusing two different shipments, thinking they are the same package.

HJ492983241US came from us.

LZ782522787US did not come from us, it came from someone in Ohio.

Re: USP SHipping SUCKS the Big one.

:-( sorry It seems I might be in error here......
Ok I ordered both Kits from you right?? Filastruder and a Filawinder....
I have cleaner plastic I bought from Filabot because I made my own Lymans Geared extruder... that is why I know about the original Lymans being an 120VAC powered Extruder.
I did not order anything else..... No Idea what that other order is.....
Ill try looking it up maybe it is more PLA Pellets......
Sorry for the mixup......;-X
