I had no idea that getting a parcel to canada was such a hassle.  I want to order more from the store but seriously reconsidering it due to the extreme wait times for packages to arrive.  You're seriously telling me that a Canadian order can't be sent overnight or 3 day delivery if we're willing to pay for it??

I for one would pay the extra few bucks to get my order in less then a week compared to a month.

Cheers

yup they only ship XPO canada. It takes about a 1.5 weeks to arrive as well. Just order it and forget about it for 2 weeks. People need some patience these days...

I live in Ireland and my 2 lithos took less than a full working week to arrive, shocking how they cant sort canada out.

For Europe, this is plain old luck. I once had a shipment from the US. Ordered 23th Dec, shipped 24th Dec, arrived 27th Dec. USPS First class. On the other hand: Priority stuff that took five weeks without even touching the customs.



For Canada, I heard this pretty often. Must be some issue with the local post service.

We're working on the Canada Post issue, but its taking between 1-2 weeks on average for Canada Post orders.

My guess is Canada customs. I regularly have stuff shipped from the States and items can get held at customs from one day to a few days to a week. That's where the issue is. Maybe you guys could prioritize and put Canadian orders at the head of the line for pre-orders and/or maybe just sell some of those lithos at your Edmonton HQ where they're made anyways!



Eg. Take orders before they're shipped to you in the States, find out how many Canadian orders there are, ship those to buyers and the rest back down to your HQ store.

Ha!  Only if the number draw is still totally randomized Image IPB  Hmmm, that makes me wonder if anyone has ever gotten a #1/XXX litho....

I would guess that employees get the best numbers. I did get #2 of one of the Dead Space lithos though.

makes sense that we should get the low numbers, we're canadians who are supporting a canadian company. We should go to the head of the line for that.

Well, it's understandable. I think it's mind boggling that you cannot have a rather fast shipment within your own country. I order stuff from a store from Pennsylvania and they get in my mailbox exactly 1 week later (and sometimes less) and it's a cheap basic shipping. You would expect that because it's from the US that it would take many weeks... nope.
