DMC and the Canada Post strike

[yearofluigi]

Finally, I got an update on my order. It is finally in Canada but it being presented at customs for review. I'm feeling nervous now and afraid that they will repossess it. I'm so close to to salvation

The review took a little under 36 hours for my package according to Aftership. You should be fine but yeah it is nerve-wracking.

How long did it take to arrive at customs?

It was months because Canada had a postal strike. I ordered back on November 18.

thanks for the updates @yearofluigi i finally got mine today :) I'm not sure why it was presented for review twice... Either way, on December 31st when it was up for review the second time, the review took nearly two weeks. It was released Jan 11 and I got it today Jan 14. The package is in that typical yellow paper type of parcel with yellow tape that says that it was opened by CBSA... No black packaging like everyone else said but the main SN packaging inside looks intact and I think still sealed but I'm not sure as I haven't opened that yet. Thought I'd share that for anyone else is is worried about customs.

When did you order?
Mine is still under review and has been since January 7. I'm really starting to worry

I ordered November 1st I think but had a few weeks of payment issues so it didn't ship out until Nov 26. They might be opening your package too then if the review is taking that long. If it took almost two weeks like mine yours will prob be released Jan 18 or sometime around then

That must be a relief :D The stuff about the packaging is really interesting as well. I wonder how much the CBSA was able to figure out the package (they probably knew it wasn't concrete hardener :P). I think it's good news that they didn't do a welfare check or confiscate the package even after inspecting it manually.

Update, it has been stuck in customs for nearly a month.
Just my luck! Other people got their SN but my is stuck and will probably be confiscated. I hate this life and cannot escape from it.

That must be so frustrating >:( I hope you aren't kept waiting for too much longer
