My SAL shipment of a teacup was posted on 12/17/15 in Japan and arrived 12/29/15. I'd say that was pretty good for the holiday season.

SAL delivery delays?

Here in Spain my orders by SAL usually take a couple of weeks to arrive, just a little longer than EMS. However, this Christmas has been a pain, a shipment has taken six weeks to arrive and the tracking did not work.

That is excellent. I have had SAL packages from Japan seemingly sit in US customs for longer than the 12 days it took for yours to arrive.

And the time travelling aspect makes it even more impressive! :lol: 8)

oh, 1 year 12 days, not so impressive. :mrgreen: but it is impressive to be changing over the year ahead of time. I am often still using the previous year several weeks into the new year.

I usually take longer to get the new year correct in my writing--I guess this year I was too quick to adopt 2015!
