Hold on a minute! What do you mean by waiting? Are we supposed to not open the packages until Christmas?

Yep, that's the rigth time I guess. I'll use FedEx or UPS just to make sure everything arives around that time. But I think our overseas friends should not worry about timelines. Just imagine if, let's say Chad, sends stuff to somebody in Argentina, for example. Quite sure wont make it for December.

Quick note (heya onix) :
Once I decide on the CD I thought it might,at least in my case, have the best shot at on time arrival if I order it online and then ship to the "lucky dogs" address (sorry,couldn't resist

)
the mail system is not quite up to par (?????) right now and add to that the holiday mail and ,well you can see where I am coming from.

¡¡¡Hola Rick!!! ¿Qué onda amigo? I think the best bet is some non gubernamental post service like Fed-Ex or UPS. Besides, the postal service is not really that trustable as you say. Take care Rick.

yeah,probably the only way to go right now--order and have sent directly to ________ via fedex 2nd day,don't want to chance the postal service screwing this up (have had some recent problems),and think I have made up my mind

but still considering other choices.Can't be ordinary here,just don't fit what is expected of the rickster

Mail to Canada from the U.S. has been unpredictable lately. Two recent items I've purchased took nearly 3 weeks. And now it's Christmas season. I'm sending my CD out to San Francisco this week just to be sure.
