    I ordered my Lux the same day, still sitting in customs. My Swedish SuperSteel took 16 days.

    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    If you see any black cars roll up with a bunch of guys in black suits and sunglasses I'd suggest you avoid speaking Russian. Just saying.

    17 days. Not bad at all.

    Sounds like a couple of my buddies. Ex-Russian Military. I hope they'd be here to hand deliver my Rapira Lux blades.

    Mine turned up yesterday. Exactly 14 days after I ordered them which was quicker than I thought it would be. Picked them up from the post office today, I can't wait to try them.

    Guess what? My Rapira Lux will be delivered today! 18 days from the time I ordered them. In all, not bad. :happy036:

    I know mine have gone through Customs and are in the pipeline to my door. 10 days so far.

    So far everyone is looking at less than 3 weeks. That seems like great service actually. Especially considering the origin and the potential issues there.

    I made an eBay purchase from Canada (Saskatchewan) the same day as the Rapira blades I'm waiting on. I'm thinking the Russian is going to win the race to Texas.

    I hear the weather is lovely around this time of year. Stay away from Florida though...

    I'll just add my 2ยข. I ordered a few hundred blades from Moscow and they took just over 3 weeks, perhaps 23 days. I'm not sure how long they sat in customs in NY, because I wasn't checking daily. According to the tracking number they left NY customs 11 days after leaving Russia customs. Like I said I don't know how long they were in NY customs, but can only tell the dates they left customs on each end by checking the tracking number on Russian Post and USPS. After leaving NY customs they were delivered to me in 5 days (western US).

    Received my 200 Voskhods from Moscow today, 25 days after placing the order.

    Mine are here. I just have to go to the post office to get them. Stupid registered mail.

    Looks like I get to go to the post office tomorrow. Just got the text alert from USPS that mine are in Hazelwood - that's the main sorting P.O. in St. Louis. Should have the notice in the morning. If so that will be 13 day service. Much faster than I anticipated.

    Mine arrived today. I had to sign for them. Strange...

    Mine is still listed as "Processing" in Moscow. That update was on the 15th.

    25 days for my delivery from Russia

    Looks like a few are taking a lot longer but some not as long. The inconsistency is interesting. I just ordered more from Chelyabinsk so will see how this one compares to my last order that only took 13 days.

    Have you checked with the seller? Seems like yours is out there a bit too long.

    I had to sign too. The parcel was sent registered mail, that's why in my case.
