Should it be here?

Ordered a laserbtb 660nm 5mW unit a couple days ago. I received the tracking number on the 8th of March and the info is as follows:

*Be aware this was shipped with AirMail, and its in the US in 4 days!!!*

It has been saying that for over 1 day now. San Francisco is only 2 hours away from me. My mom hasen't yet checked the mail so hoping it could be in their, but have to wait for her to return.

Any thoughts?

Yeah it got to you pretty quick, FedEx from them takes the same or longer for me as it has to go via Germany.

It depends when it got to the USPS sorting office and how much mail your postman has as to whether it'll be included in this day's run or the next. If it's not with you, it'll certainly be very near you (local PO probably) if it departed USPS yesterday.

I know how it feels, I've been waiting for my 593.5 for two weeks on the dot now, and the postal service USPS supposedly hand over to on our side shows no tracking info whatsoever. TBH I'm beginning to think it's been lost or stolen... but it's a thought I'm trying not to entertain right now.

^Yikes! Im paranoid about my 660nm unit, can't imagine how bad it must be for a 593.5nm one

Let's just hope it gets to you safe.

The seller has been very good about it, as it looks like his local PO cocked up and didn't insure it like he asked. TBH I'd be more gutted that such a good laser got lost rather than the financial hit. Still trying to stay optimistic though... perhaps customs are having turns at taking beamshots...

Unless it's been twice as long as it usually takes I don't worry about it

Im trying to give it more time knowing it's First Class International but still...I find that ridiculous that this package has already taken 2 days to get from S.F to Sacramento which is only 100 Miles!!!

I tried contacting USPS for any support and couldn't even to a live agent :wtf:

Oh well, I will give it until Friday and update this thread if anything new happens!
