I received this email today from MikroElektronika regarding my order.
...
Your order has been assembled and delivered to
customs yesterday.I am so sorry because delivery
delay, we have many orders and our delivery was
not fast as it was several months ago.
It can take 1 - 3 days to get though customs
and 3 - 9 days for airmail delivery Europe or
7-18 days to all parts of the world.
Please let me know as soon as you get your
items.
Thank you for your order,
...
Best case that means only an 11 day wait, worst case it's 30 days! So it's feeling more like a month before Christmas.

Hi Dave,
Back in the day a partner and I hired a vendor in Japan to print our direct-mail catalogs. Yes, their prices were less expensive than American printers. However, having to incur import duties, dock worker "service fees," and waiting twice as long to get the job delivered made going off shore an expensive proposition.
