How long to east coast rn?

Yeah that lines up with what I've been seeing lately. For me on the east coast (also NY), it's been pretty consistently right around that 7-10 business day window after the "shipped" notification pops up. But you're spot on about the processing — I usually figure another 2-4 business days before it actually leaves the facility, honestly. So total from order placed to mailbox is more like 10-14 calendar days if you count weekends.

As for the courier, most of mine have come via USPS after the initial handoff. They go through a regional sort facility first, then get passed to USPS for final delivery. I've seen tracking show a stop at a major hub like Chicago or Dallas before heading east — that's usually where the customs check happens if it's coming from overseas. The packages I've gotten have been in a plain bubble mailer with decent padding, nothing too fancy but enough to keep the card from bending. I've never had one show up damaged, so whatever they're doing on the packaging side seems to work.

Customs can be a wildcard though. I've had packages zip through in under 24 hours, and I've also had one sit at ISC New York for like 5 days without moving. It's really hit or miss. I think the 7-10 business days estimate assumes a smooth customs pass without any holds. If you're in a major metro area on the east coast, the last-mile delivery is usually pretty quick once it clears customs — usually 1-2 days tops.

Overall I'd give east coast speed a solid 8/10 for consistency. It's not express shipping, but it's reliable enough that I don't stress about it. Just account for that processing buffer before it even shows as shipped and you'll be fine.

Check your spam folder too, sometimes tracking emails end up there
