Good old Fifo principle to be applied starting this am it seems. First in, first out. Mine hit Canada Post the day before the strike. 

Mine is with customs in Richmond, BC. Hoping that means it's closer to the front of the line.

Id be suprised if we receive anything by Christmas time.  Maybe the west coast if anything.

My thoughts exactly! Knowing my luck, probably be February before I get mine if it isn’t lost somewhere

Pacific Processing Centre in Richmond is being blocked by a bunch of other unions because the back to work legislation is viewed as unconstitutional. Most likely just a one day show of support until an injunction is ordered.

Thanks for the update.  Were we supposed to received a confirmation email with the tracking info?

I think it's been over a year now that I would receive the shipping confirmation emails once our package enters Canada. It's best to check your order status over @ https://pearljam.com/ten-club/my-account/order-history . When you check your tracking # on the UPS site, look for the alternative tracking #, which is a USPS number. There just copy & past that number over @ canadapost.ca.

I basically get the same information from Canada post site as I do UPS 😂 
but it’s a start

So the posties started back today and the wife said the mailman delivered mail to neighbours on both sides of us and to the people across the street and we got nothing. Hard to believe in the 5 weeks I didn’t receive any mail 😂

Cool. Hope to see more reveals soon. Starting to think about actual important life stuff. I hate when that happens!

Processing plants only opened at 8am today so all that was delivered today is what was left at the depots on Nov 15th.

Nice I have 2 to be delivered. Would be a nice surprise to get before Christmas. I do expect Canada Post to charge duty on everything coming in now to make up on lost revenue.

I think it's the CBSA that reviews for duty, not Canada Post.  Canada post just collects it.  I'm guessing they've got a pretty big backlog and customs will be overwhelmed.  I predict the opposite and they'll let a bunch of stuff slide.

I'm super stoked, tracking updated today, CBSA released it to Canada Post.  Usually in normal circumstances it would take a day or two to get here from Richmond, but give the backlog, maybe it'll get here before Christmas

I should note, I was wrong and mretzooc was right.  I'll owe just over $33 in taxes/brokerage

You were right about the CBSA, just unlucky to get chosen by them for taxes. Hopefully the wait and fees will be worth it 🤞
 I feel like we’re due to see another Benny…

I shipped mine to Michigan. Picking up tomorrow. I never have luck with mystery boxes was secretly hoping for an extra notification that something arrived. Happy for all those that received something special. It’s pretty great to live vicariously through those posts. 

Good luck to those still waiting for packages - hope some special items make their way up here.
