Dbf went ahead and ordered something off IOffer (even after I showed him all you're warnings about it). Just to refresh your memory he plays/collects/ restores antique Nintendo consoles etc. I know it's coming from somewhere overseas... Asia I believe. They are using EMS (like I said I've never bought anything online except from reputable department stores, Victoria Secret etc).
The package was sent last Friday (the 24th) and the seller gave a tracking number. It last said that it was dispatched from the Beijing centre on the 28th around 3pm. There has been no updates since then.
The seller said that maybe when it's in Canada it's out of EMS hands and in the hands of Canada Post (the tracking # doesn't work on Canada Post). Can someone clarify this for me? How will the package get to us... through the mail or courier? If it was shipped on Friday whats usually the amount of time. The seller stated about 7 days but heard of people getting it a lot sooner.
Thanks Ladies!
