Hi Ken,

Actually you'd be surprised on how long it takes some stuff to reach our shores. I've had large cartons take 12 weeks shipped via surface mail, I was wondering if they didn't just drive to the west coast of the US, throw it off a pier and let it float over.

FedEx will ship overnight but that still takes a few days and then it has to go through both the quarantine service and customs. FedEx would probably cost more than the Tee nuts.

Cheers,

Paul
