[Delay] customs held it 19 days and released it with no note

Delay Well Actually ×3

The title is the argument: customs held it 19 days and released it with no note. Here is the rest of it.

Since the title puts numbers in the shop window: 19 days.

Packaging is assessable on arrival with no equipment: rigid outer, no movement inside, the cold element sized to the transit rather than to the box.

A quoted lead time is a commitment you can evaluate. Measuring quoted against actual across several orders tells you more about an operation than the raw speed does.

Ask me anything specific. Anything general I will probably get wrong.

Tracking number redacted. No exceptions on this one — it identifies both ends of a shipment.

Median transit is the useful statistic. The minimum is a story about one shipment and the mean is dragged around by a single hold.

That is the quoted lead time, not the observed transit. Both belong in the report and they are different columns.

Clearance took three days and the carrier took nine. I had been blaming the wrong half for two years.
