just give it more time my skis took 2 and a half weeks to get to a kid in vermont, it is probably a little shorter from quebec to boston

Usually with Canada shipping takes longer from my experience hold out a few more days if nothing shows up than get worried

had a month long nightmare shipping to canada last winter. it was ridiculous. i'll never do it again. sent skis, skis got lost, skis eventually got sent back to me. i had to pay shipping again, skis eventually arrived over a month after the transaction was made. needless to say, the buyer was freaking out and so was i. if the seller is still in contact with you i wouldn't be too concerned. shipping internationally can take quite a while.

Any experience ive had with cross border shipping has sucked. Stuff usually takes forever to get to me, like 2-3 weeks. If you can get a hold of him, I wouldnt be tooo worried.

Ya sometimes customs can be a bitch! i wouldnt jump to scam conclusions though. Can you get any type of shipping tracker from the seller?

Yeah shipping out of canada is a bitch. Takes like anywhere from 5 days to 2.5 weeks. Its super all over the place so I wouldn't freak out yet.
