Welcome.

Once you've truly given up waiting for it and maybe even forgotten about it, the store will call you and tell you it is either delayed another two months (minimum) or that they received the wrong one but you should come in and check it out immediately if not sooner because it is "the best one they've ever seen".

Having to travel through hostile Indian territory, and changing to a fresh horse every 100 miles could take some time.

So where do you live? Probably quick delivery if you live in New York, not so fast if you are in Botswana.

Are we there yet? Are we there yet? Are we there yet? :lol:

Ask the store where it was ordered and see if they will call and ask. I've ordered before and it was two weeks, another took 6 weeks. Some people wait even longer. If, if, if, doesn't matter. Enjoy the anticipation.

Probably better that you ordered locally, as I hear that the customs office usually gets stuff to the stores quicker than to an individual. And customs fees? :o
