I bought onw other item from them a couple years ago, from their actual website that time, and remember it still took two weeks to arrive. Should not be any customs issues crossing the border since NAFTA from a customs standpoint, so the only issue should be security from a governmental standpoint (as long as it is not a restricted item in one country or another). I think it is a slower fulfillment of order system for Glengarry. Chris at Dunadd is notorious for being very prompt with his shipping.
NAFTA provides (in theory) for tariff-free shipping across the border (for products CLEARLY labeled "MADE in USA" or "MADE in CANADA"), but customs still has the right to inspect every package for contraband/excluded items.

I do a fair bit of shipping to Canada and can say with plenty of experience that between customs on both sides of the border I've had packages take 4 days to get to BC and I've had packages take almost 3 WEEKS to get there.

Usually 6-10 days via Priority Airmail is pretty standard.

Oddly enough, the place that seems to have the speediest transition thru customs is Australia. Most of the items I've sent have taken 6-8 days to travel half the world and clear two customs ports.

Please don't get me started on UK customs. I just paid for 3-5 day Express International postage and it took 11 days to clear and be delivered!
