    Default USPS to Canada

    Does anyone know approximately how long it would take for a package sent from Texas using USPS to get to Alberta? I ordered a razor off of one of the members on February 8th, and was wondering if its normal to take this long.

    I've had packages sent back and forth...10-15 business days is normal. I've even had to wait 6 weeks. I wouldn't be concerned until it starts to creep up on or over a month. This is to Ontario, not Alberta...

    I always figure 22 days and that is from 32 miles into the US in N Idaho...

    Even Priority mail takes time once it crosses into Canada...

    The longest was 25 days the shortest was 10...

    I've had packages from the U.S. take just over 4 weeks. That was the longest of any package from anywhere, including Argentina, Italy, Germany, UK, etc. It's weird, but true.

    It always takes at least 2 weeks to get stuff from the USA for me.

    Waiting is the hard part.

    The U.S part is fast and you can pretty much figure how long that will take however the Canada component is another story. I would give it at least two weeks just to get to the U.S.
