Hi Erez

Paul is right, everything that travels outside the States goes by air with the exception of some parcels of lower rates. By ship, it is still 30 days or so. Although the first couple of weeks after the Attacks they were refusing to take anything from the Postal Service on aircraft. It may still take a bit longer than it used to as there is just less air travel these days.

Do as Paul has and just order it surface mail if that is an option. It will travel by ground from one city here to another, but fly overseas. Then at the other end, it belongs to your postal service. Good Luck!
