I have also picked up a few pieces from Dennis and he's a top notch guy. After all, he is the Allach guy!

Not as far to ship, but my purchase from Dennis sounds like a replay of yours... a very fine mint white Allach squirrel.
Dennis is one of the aces in this hobby.

Mailed on the 11th. In my hands today and I was "afloat" on a cloud of Icelandic volcanic ash in between for a few days.Not bad going! Cheers Seiler

That timing is unbeleivable, even without the ash holes! It can take up to three weeks to get a parcel from the States into Canada, which is just up the street.
And, I have been waiting for a parcel from Belgium for three weeks now as well.
As I tell people who ship to me, don't get worried or excited until at least 4 weeks have elapsed... anything less is a bonus.

Canada has the worst postal service i have ever seen.I live in Michigan and it takes forever for a package to reach someone in Canada, or receive a package or letter.

Yes. I sent Paulbear an item from California, sent a similar item to England the same day. Item arrived in England and customs held up Paulbear's envelope for almost another week.
