Wellp, you could’ve/should’ve ordered from a domestic supplier, then, and paid extra for shipping.

That’s not intended as being snarky, just understanding/highlighting the differences between Business Here and Business There.

I got flattops and you got buttontops, 2 different types and possibly suppliers. I got the “ETA” thingy, too, for 3-4 days. Didn’t mind because I knew of the holiday and potential hangovers hangups.

No one would single out a particular package to “punish” anyone, anymore that someone at a mail hub would sit on your mail for a few days just for spite.

Hey, if I absolutely positively needed some 30Qs by the end of the week, I’d check out one of the domestic suppliers, one who guarantees next-day shipping (“order before 3pm and it goes out same-day!”), and possibly even pay for having it expedited. It’d co$t, make no mistake.

Don’t think I ever ever “needed” that, so I’m fine with ordering it at my leisure from across the planet and getting it cheap.

Worst case a nearby vape shop could supply a coupla 18650s. If you needed it, literally, same-day, that’d be an option. Expensive option possibly, but an option.

If you’ve been around here long enough, you’d see plenty of comments from people ordering from China and expecting Amazon-like service. Doesn’t happen, not at those prices. You want a-to-z, you gotta pay for it.
