I just got to thinking about this...

So I think I have stated this several times to people around here about my own personal philosophy when it comes to shipping times from Sweden. The question comes up so many times..."When should I start to worry my shipment has gone awry?" I have always said that my general rule of thumb for those of us in the U.S. having snus delivered from Sweden is three full business weeks. In other words 21 days. I have always suggested that this is probably the O.K. point for you to go ahead and let your supplier know that you have not recieved your shipment and see what they say. Unfortunatly I am running to the Airport to pick my GF up and won't get back for an hour and may not see results till tomorrow but I wanted to know what everyone thought WOULD be a good waiting time. So answer the silly poll and let the bashing begin I think I know one person who disagrees with me at least :wink:

The funny thing is that no matter what the results at 3 weeks I for one am contacting somebody but I really just wanted to see what you guys thought. Peace and Love guy!

Dude...I'm calling after like 2 1/2 days...but I'm an impatient barstard!! :lol:

[sagedil]

2 weeks max!!!

Have had shipments arrive lately anywhere between 9 and 12 days. Two weeks, there is a problem.

[bakerbarber]

Two weeks. worried

Three weeks I'd contact someone.

Not business days weeks.

jesus. northerner says 7 days or so. swedish post. 2 weeks and i'll pull the trigger. i've never ordered from them before, but i'm gonna.

i didn't vote in this poll. now i'm going back to try to find that thread i was looking for. sorry, i apologize, just saw this and put my 2 cents in.

Two weeks for me also. Day 15 and I'm sending out the emails. Having said that I've only had two orders take more than 12 days. ( I don't use that shop anymore)

I think we need another option. The longest I've ever waited for shipments to New Jersey was 7 days. So anything over 10 days would probably have me concerned. By the time three weeks rolled around, I'd be a mess over it.

I live in Alabama for me every order from notherner takes 8 days. The weird thing is i once ordered from the U.S. warehouse before a vactation thinking it would get here quicker, when in fact it took 11 days.

Wow! That had to be a fluke. I get my U.S. based Northerner orders in 2 days.

[wadetheblade]

Weird huh,
Beija do they ship from Penn.?

Yep, that is bizarre. What shipping method did you select? I always go with USPS or Swedish Post and avoid UPS at all costs.

Northerner's US warehouse is located somewhere around Allentown I believe. I've had good luck, with placing orders on Monday afternoon and having my order waiting for me on Wednesday when I get home from work.

Strange thing happened on my last order though....I ordered 10 tins of General from the US warehouse. Received it in 2 days. Then a week later I got the bonus tin of the same snus which shipped from Sweden. Not sure why that didn't ship from the US as well. But hey, I was very happy that day because I had forgotten all about the "buy 10 tins of General, get 1 free" promotion. Nothing like coming home to free snus!!

shipping

When it came from the u.s. it was UPS, but every time i've ordered from sweden it is with Swedish post and it always takes exactly 8 days.

[ctimb2002]

Sorry guys...there was supposed to be an option for No, I'd email sooner or No, I want my snus NOW! I guess i F'd the F'ing poll....DAMNIT!

[Badfish74]

Dammit ctimb! You always F everything the F'ing F up!!! Stop F'ng doing that F'ing S!! :lol:

I have a Question along the same lines of the OP. Anybody have any experience with packages being shipped personally from Swden? I mean, when exactly do you start to think, "Crap, I've been had!"?

[Jason]

Hard to say, because in my opinion it seems like orders are generally starting to take longer than they did when I first started using snus. I would naturally attribute this to shipping method changes and overall increase in business the overseas distributors are experiencing.

Three weeks is pushing it hard, though... :wink:
