Orders to Manitoba take anywhere from 7-21 days. You never know what the mail gremlins will put you through

Once I had an order take an exceptionally long time, only to findout that KEH hadn't shipped until almost 4 weeks after their confirmation. Ugh.

I get the items from KEH in about 2-3 weeks, very slow IMHO but what can you do...
good idea to get a second confirmation from KEH on the actual ship date. good luck

Guess they aren't too fond of U.S.P.S because my order wasn't mailed until the 21st.Took 19 days to process.

Sounds familiar. The Post Office must be quite a distance from their business

I just got my order from KHB in Toronto and it only took 6 days total. At my request they sent it Xpress post so it got to me by way of USPS and I didn't have to go through or pay any Customs charges. Those guys rock!!!

I get my Freestyle orders in less time than that - no more than 10 days, usually a week, and my orders probably have to go through Vancouver to get here. I charge it to my Visa if that makes any difference.

KEH has only fairly recently begun using USPS for Canadian destinations; they used to insist on UPS only. However many of us, myself included, have complained that UPS charges their usual exhorbitant "brokerage" fees, as if what they do is gold and what the postal services do is dirt. I'm pleased that they give the option of USPS and I don't mind the wait.
