3 months.... I appologize for the hollidays, if it were up to me, I wouldn't sleep, eat or shower. Unfotunatley, the rest of the lazy world gets hollidays, hence shipping and customs are closed.... thus increasing the delay.
as for a better box
It is rugged, noticeable, and folks wouldn't think I have 3K worth of audio gear in it, and I can stuff the I-pad mini in it as well.
You can also pack your lunch in it as well!
