In Vancouver, still nothing. Same as Dimi, got the notice back in Dec, but then the Santos update.
I just set up a mailbox in Blaine WA for only $12/year so that I can just pay US Shipping in the future and have shorter wait times. I find it hilarious that I just custom ordered a surfboard made from scratch in Rhode Island, and it's only going to take 6 weeks to shape it by hand, ship it, and receive it, whereas these records take 5-6 months. I realize that this is technically "on schedule", but still...the waiting drives me mad.
I've thought about seeing if I can do that in Port Angeles. I wonder how much mail they can store for you. Order things and every few months take the ferry over and pick them up. You sort of have to make a day trip out of it because the ferry is 90 minutes but you have to show up 60-90 mins early to clear customs.
If you're in Vancouver though, wouldn't it make more sense to see if they do that in Point Roberts? The Peace Arch crossing is getting more brutal with each passing year. I can't imagine the crossing into Point Robert's has a wait, because it doesn't really go anywhere?

Good thought with Point Roberts. I personally find Blaine more convenient because I can tie in the trip with something else. I have Seahawks season's tickets, snowboard at Mt. Baker, and tend to go to a few concerts in Seattle every year, so I'm usually crossing the border every month or two anyways. My wife and I have Nexus, which is absolutely fantastic. It only costs $50 for 5 years, and often it only takes 5-10 minutes to get through the border, when the lineup would otherwise take an hour or more.
As for the mailbox companies, this is my first experience, but I know that some friends have had bigger items like couches sent, and just have to pay a bit more if they need to hold it for long periods of time. Most of them seem to have tariffs online though, so I guess you can decide if that makes sense for you.
Good luck.

I get my records delivered to my office, which is at a university, which is closed for the holiday. That's why I couldn't get mine delivered today. So sounds like tomorrow might be the day!

Hmm I wonder what happened to mine. As it was a STAT we were closed at work yesterday and I had it shipped to my work address.
edit: The part that's really going to suck. I'm moving at the end of the month and have been packing. I packed up the record player yesterday :( It means I won't get a chance to spin it until early march.
The Vault packaging is also abnormally large. I'm still trying to figure out a way to pack them safely as they don't fit in my standard record boxes...

Did Canada Post deliver the package to you?
