Canada Post delays?

[doc-holmes]

Anyone experiencing ridiculous delays? I have orders from Nov. 26, Dec 1 and 3...nowhere in sight.

with tracking or not?? most of my tracked items, are taking an extra 4-5 day, both domestic and USA bound.. as far as un tracked i don't know, but i would assume slower than usual..

We're talking non-tracked. I just got one item today (that's good) but there's still a lot of stuff way overdue.

Yes things are definitely slower right now. 

I purchased a package that was sent yesterday and it won't be here until the 1st and it was sent expedited. That's longer then their normal times and I think it's probably from Christmas. It's normal this time of year.

There is normal and there is Christmas normal.

Canada Post does put extra staff on at this time of year, and sometimes will deliver on Saturdays or even Sundays.

If your purchases are past the last estimated date in the delivery window eBay gave you, you have 30 days to open a Dispute in the Resolution Centre at the bottom of this page.

If the seller cannot prove delivery (not shipping, delivery) you will be refunded.

If the purchase arrives after you have the refund, you can return it to the seller using Paypal's Send Money service.

I have found over the decades that delivery within North America takes about 20 days on average ( but is often earlier) while shipping from Asia takes about 30 days, unless the Seller used "free" shipping which usually means Surface and delivery is between 60 days and never.

November 26 is 18 business days ago and 26 calendar days.
