It seems after a quick peruse of the forum that a good number of people have been waiting a long while for their shipments from China me included. I don't quite know this forum's official association with the shipping companies but is there some odd event happening right now that is causing the delay for several customers or is this a typical occurrence. Even shipments with the EA tracking number which should be quick are taking very long.

I don't think there is any information I haven't seen. I could post all the tracking numbers from the sub forum a lot of them are stuck in that 15-20 day period after they leave Beijing. Is there anything going on that you know of that would cause a delay of all these packages or is this typical activity?
