Wow man I feel for you. Thank you all for sharing your experiences with me but I have an interesting one for you
I just got a package from the US today and as usual I do my own clearance at Customs Canada and since I'm there I asked the agent who was serving me about the waiting time when Customs decided to inspect... answer: 48-72hrs (as we already know) and then I asked about the few weeks to a few months waiting time... the answer? "the sender been red flagged."
To cut the story short, when a sender been "red flagged", anything coming from that sender will be stop automatically for inspection with no prejudice and that could take forever. Why? because that sender been caught sending prohibit items to Canada.
So!, I know I may ask for the moon here but if possible could ASC provide a list of retailers who been red flagged so when we order from them we know to not expected anything anytime soon...
How? any report from members like you and me who have to wait longer then it should thats when you know something is wrong.
This is not to give the seller a bad reputation but a warning to buyer/members of the truth on the waiting time so they(me) won't go insane when it took longer then usual
