Canada Customs would be a good bet. My package was shipped April 18th and I hope to get it this week.

I'm in the same position, Peter. I ordered mine the very next day the post appeared in the forum and I'm still waiting for it!
And I believe it would be a Customs issue too!

Dan: I guess we should consider ourselves lucky. Afterall, we really get a customized order don't we!

It will be interesting if we Canadian customers get dinged for a brokerage fee, and taxes. Sometimes stuff will get through unscathed if it was marked as a "gift".

It must have something to do with volumes of mail, I got mine today & I may as well be at the south pole. 9 days to Perth. 2 shirts & a mug. Excellent artwork on all. kudos to everyone involved.

Steve: Without a bit of doubt, some Canadian customers on a teeshirt at $13.99 US will pay $17.56 Canadian and as a bonus will also pay Canada Post $5. for privilage of them processing the GST of $2.63 for a grand total of $25.19 Canadian. Plus if we are lucky enough to get it, the pacel will have likely been opened for inspection. I will let you know what happens to me. I bet Dane got his mail faster when stationed at the outpost!

Just got back from the post office with my two mugs - they look great! Peter - hopefully yours (and other Canucks), will arrive in the next few days. Of course Canada Post took their $5 and the government took PST/GST. A small price to pay for the ultimate in tea drinking cool!

Good for you, Steve. I'll be checking in after work!
You have a way with words, Peter! My vocabulary isn't versatile enough to join in your play on words but I sure get a real kick out of it!!! Now, if this forum was in french, then it would be a different story!!!

Boohoohoo! No t-shirt and no cup at the post office. Misteeeeeeeeer postman...!

Great Steve. You have proven that it can be done. I will check the mail tomorrow.

Good on ya, Gerry!! Pleased that there are a few Aussies who took up the offer. I got my stuff last Wednesday (8 day delivery) - 2 more coffee mugs on the way!

Haven't worked out the right coffee/sugar mix yet - not used to these large mugs!! Maybe I should just use it for beer!!

You mean the mugs were made for coffee? Learn something new everyday.

Thanks Peter - I feel like a real pioneer...

Got my two mugs and teeshirt last Thursday. I was going to give one mug to my recording buddy in L.A., but they were so gorgeous I said, "Screw it, I'm keeping them."

I did break down and order one more for him on Saturday, tho. Really impressive work, Paul. Thanks.
