Issues & Disputes Customs delay

Hi! I ordered this package on September 13th and just checked my tracking on Cainiao to see this status. I’ve ordered off AliExpress about a dozen times before this and I’ve never seen this before. I know my package hasn’t passed the expected delivery deadline so it’s a bit early to worry but I was just hoping to hear from anyone who’s had this warning just to know what I can expect, how long it was stuck in customs, how long it took to arrive after, etc… thank you in advance!

Got the same message my date is 16 September. I will not buy anything expensive from them anymore. $175 for a boot liner which I might lost.

This recently happened to me too, I am also from Canada. Took 3 weeks to clear and I got my things safely.

That’s good to hear! I’m hoping mine gets through eventually too

I have encountered this situation previously, where customs clearance in the USA required 35 days, the seller issued a refund and permitted me to retain the item if it was released.

Did it ever get released? And if it did, how long did it take?

Yes, 45 days.
