You can check the tracking link they sent you.
Shipping takes between 1 week - 2month

Mine came last Friday (to the UK) which was 10 days after I received the tracking email.

had a largish parcel delivered in 5 days to me once, stunning.
Coming from a commercial company with probably all the markings on the envelope this is likely to stay with customs too. Usually this delays notifying you for ~3 days in Germany, as those are directed to the customs station whilst the CC of the shipping label is sent to you via letter meanwhile.

No tracking update yet
Was there an update for you on the USPS tracking site when the letter arrived in your country / EU?

[HzFaq]

Nope, I think they only track within the US, mine said what yours does when I had the package in my hand.

edit - Infact it still does!

Check if the tracking ID works with deutsche Post tracking site

[IvanIvanovich]

Generally to have working tracking to international from USPS it needs to be sent as 'registered' as delivery confirmation is not done outside USA generally. Sometimes regular tracking gets update by recieving customs but that is usually the last one as it then is out of USPS custody.

Tell me if you get any update status... For me, I received the USPS confirmation on June 29; still nothing.

[agor]

Haven't received it yesterday, not trackable @ deutschepost either. Everyday I get back from work I hope that I'll find them in the mailbox..

[ForestFunK]

I got my CC from EK 5 days after it was shipped. Tracking only showed the locations in the US.

[agor]

Probably lying around at customs for no reason...
RGBY Group Buy from hashbaz took ages to arrive, too

Just hoping they arrive soon

[mSSM]

Did you try contacting customs though? Thing is that if you can't even provide them with a tracking number, how would they give you info about your stuff? And also - which customs office to contact...?

[agor]

Well I have a tracking number. Going to wait until next week and file a Search Request at Deutsche Post

I'm expecting a Focus 2001 via USPS. It was sent on 18th of July. It went from Philly to NY in 3 days. Then from NY to New Jersey in 7 days! Now I've no idea where it'll go next and when they actually fly it here.

Then again, recently bought a Dell AT101W from hashbaz and it arrived like in 5 days or so. Shipping costs were basically the same.

[agor]

If they don't arrive today, I'm gonna file a search at Deutsche Post

[Findecanor]

To Stockholm, Sweden, it almost always takes precisely one week, unless it has got stuck in customs or it has been sent during the holidays when the mail services has had too many shipments to handle at once.
This has been the case for over a dozen (possibly two dozen) small packages that I have received in the last decade, both cheap letterpost and international priority.
However, a few have been lost in transit -- and these have all been small padded envelopes sent without insurance. Nowadays, I usually ask a US seller to ship in a small box, just to be sure.

[agor]

I really hope it does not come to that..

[agor]

Have not arrived today
Filed a search request @ Deutsche Post

[agor]

FINALLY arrived, thank god. They were at customs obviously...

Where the heck do you send email to USPS about the package?? I tried all of their "Email Us" links and I just couldn't find my way (as a receiver of an international delivery) to ask them "please help, where exactly is my package at the moment?"

[agor]

Didn't send anything to USPS, I asked Deutsche Post to search it. Got the letter about this issue the same day the clacks were delivered saying they could not find it, so much for that..

[codehead]

Finnish postal office says that as long as it hasn't arrived Finland, it's out of their hands. They claim it hasn't reached Finland. I'm never using USPS again.

[codehead]

And fuck their Email Us pages. Everything is just filled with dropdowns and "fill in your residential address" fields. I'm not an US citizen so kinda hard
