I'm wondering what's the normal time to deliver a package after it already cleared custom? My package got out of custom on 16th but until now I still haven't received it. It's a quite expensive one so I'm very worried about it.
Normally, it shouldn't take more than a week to ship within CONUS.

If it's anything like here where I live, you should definitely have received it by now since it's priority mail. It's the customs wait that takes time, but once cleared I usually have it in a day or two...

USPS...varies. I had one package that was held in customs for 4 business days and another 4 business days to get to my doorstep. Give it some time hopefully everything goes well.

I'm sure your experience is very useful to someone in Ohio.

My guess is that the shipping label fell off during the transportation. Does anyone know the number of the Mail Recovery Center?
