    Did you get yours in too?

    If my calculations are correct, the vinyl singles should be arriving here in Canada before Christmas day. It took 1 month to get the Mystery Bags to arrive here, so crossing fingers the vinyl will be here by then.

    Gotta love how they can ship to Israel and New Zealand faster than Canada. I can drive to Seattle faster here in Edmonton than New Zealanders can fly to Seattle. Gotta love Canada Post!!!

    It might be because they are shipped to UK first then back to Canada. Last few packages, posters etc.. have Royal Mail stickers with UK addresses on them. :? :|

    Mine have all gone through Upper Volta first, and I'm not even sure that exists any more… I think Canada Post is messing with time travel.

    It totally doesn't make any sense. It kinda feels like there's a 10club base in the UK. That once they receive orders from Seattle in bulk, then they will get shipped out to Canada. Maybe save on cost or something? I don't have any idea at all. It's sad & confusing why everybody outside of North America receive their goods many, many day's before anybody in Canada does, which in across the border. :?

    Upper Volta? Isn't that a French West African colony? :shock:

    I've never noticed that, but that would explain why the boots through Kufala/USPS take half the time and half the cost to have them shipped (this offer excluded as shipping was included).

    If true this is disappointing that a band that promotes carbon neutrality and green solutions in their operations to allow for its shipping procedures to be so inefficient as to allow an item to travel tens of thousands of miles to reach destinations less than half that distance. Then to top it off, it's actually more costly and takes much longer than just using plain old USPS.

    I've kind of gotten used to the fact it takes time to get Ten Club items to Canada, and really don't feel like complaining about that, but if this is the reason why, then it is quite disappointing. Not necessarily disappointing for this specific product because shipping was included, but for the other items they ship.

    Yes, but I seriously thought we were just making jokes. I had no idea some people are ACTUALLY having this happen to them. That's ridiculous!
