I've entered into two buys of Thousand Sons sqauds here in the last month, both times paid each trader quickly up front.
Now I must admit, I do normally give it about a month to receive items, because life happens. BUT - If what I am being emailed is true - One was send UK Air Mail and another was sent Priority, Air Mail I usually get in 10 days, Priority 3-5 days.... both sent almost a month ago, and neither have arrived... (and both traders are saying indeed, they DID send.)
Perils of the warp? Are Thousand Sons INDEED cursed?
So what is it about Thousand Sons?

None of these things are VITAL, this is a HOBBY. A hobby we enjoy, but still, a HOBBY.
Lower rating ships or pays 1st, myself included. Used to be more flexible; but was burned in recent months by a few newbies. If 200+ feedback w/no negs and 10+ years member is not enough to be trusted, well, like I said - none of this is VITAL.

thousand sons
I don't know about the Thousand Sons but I can say I had a wonderful trade with a gent in Canada (I am in Arizona) that took 4 weeks to get my package to him and 6 weeks to get his package to me and we posted them at the same time. My suggestion is to wait a couple more before doing/saying anything bad. The customs are getting terrible.

I've done MUCH dealing with Canadian and UK shipments (over 3 dozen in the last five years), and I've got a good estimation of how long it all takes.
BUT you have to account for the possiblity of extraordinary circumstances (which seems to be gets less and less extraordinary and more common), so I am holding on and being patient. After 2 months I will readdress the situation.. but still, makes me wonder - - with this bad luck even GETTING them, what are they going to do on the battlefield?? lol
