    That all depends on how they were shipped.

    Regular parcel post takes between 4-7 business days from Canada to the USA.

    Even the most economical method by Canada Post provides the sender with a tracking number, so see if you can get that from the seller.

    I 've found it matters how the item is sent from Canada to the US. Air Mail the 4days to a week. But.... I've had land mail held for almost 3 weeks. Never opened just held at the boarder.

    Probably because the TSA has to feel 'em up and xray 'em to make sure they aren't terrorists masquerading as strops.

    Yea, back in the days when I did Customs work at LAX we had specially trained pigs to root out the strops. We'd open them up and have whipping contests with them just for fun and then pack em up and mail em your way. I thought it was nice we didn't even charge extra for breaking them in like that.
