The topic title is my question. With everything being so "crazy" right now, should I expect a slower-than-normal shipping time, like during COVID?

Thank you, all.

Just an FYI, but most things coming air mail from the UK is pretty much still on time – about 2 weeks from UK to Atlanta, GA in my case. It's stuff that has to go on the water is where you'll experience the major delays

The other issue may be price difference.

There was a wargame source book I wanted and the final price with shipping was about 30% less from the British company then I could find anywhere stateside.

the other issue is the larger than normal on randomn parcels delated on customs, this can add a week or 2 at least, its happening around the world in most countries primarily in the EU, but can occur any where

Orders are usually sent pretty quickly unless we have an out of stock on something which is rare but usually that just adds a few days.

Time in transit is usually very good and back to normal times so about 7 days as an average.

However best to go to Steve at Age of Glory for a quick and friendly service.

Cheers, Paul
