I've had no delays.
If I can ask: that was shipped by EMS right? 5 to 7 days. Never this fast with SAL or regular AIR MAIL

Funny, I just got a package from YS via SAL, and it only took 2 weeks! Fastest ever.
Last time it took something like 4-5 weeks.

Just as a watched pot never boils, a highly anticipated package never arrives. Have low expectations, it's the only way!

my boxes from ys always take about 2 weeks which is fine with me.
what's the rush with everyone here? be zen about ordering stuff. it will come, with devine intervention, your stash will get here, unopened and unsniffed by police dogs.

Yes, indeed. You are getting older cakes at the same price. It's Scott's
premium aging service. He doesn't even charge extra for an additional week or month!

For what it's worth... on August 9 I placed my first-ever order from Jing Tea Shop, and it arrived today (August 25). That was 16 days. Seems pretty reasonable to me.
