Hi all you boat lovers,

I almost had dream come true recently, winning a good example of lego
set 4030 in an auction in Canada. I advised the seller to send the set
by airmail which he says he did on the 16th September but the set never
arrived. I haven't any reason to distrust the seller so can only think
the parcel has gone astray in the mail and has been pinched by a postal
worker or sent to the wrong address.

It's a little early to abandon all hope on that package. I've had a
couple packages from Canada take over a month to get to me. I'd give it
another couple weeks (especially if it did go to the wrong address - it
may yet show up).

I think the same, Frank is right. I think something is wrong with the
Canadian Postal Service, regarding my own experiences.  Airmail from Canada
to Turkey takes about a month generally, whereas the same from the US is
only 1-2 weeks. Considering that you are living in Australia,  you'd better
wait some more.
