Shipping to NZ

[JonT]

After many purchases from Chris (I forgot how many), all of which got held up by NZ customs or Biosecurity (they don't remove anything), I finally get a package arrive without any interception! Chris sent it on the 21st, which is the 22nd NZ time, and it arrived here at my house on the 27th. That's lightning fast! And it crossed a weekend.
I now have three new micronised to try: Hiwa, Papa Kea and Mapulehu

That is great news that they did not stop the kava this time. I ordered some of the clear cover bags so that they can see what is inside so that should help too. Enjoy the kava, it's the good stuff.
Aloha.

I am real glad that everyone in NZ is getting there kava faster now. Mybe the customs has kind of accepted that I am a new kava supplier and they just pass it with no problems now. I am sure that when I get my clear front packages it will also help to prevent any hold ups for you folks.
Aloha.

Were the NZ shipments sent United States Postal Service (USPS) or by courier? Feddex, DHL etc.

That's my experience too - USPS is okay to awful, depending on your luck. i had a package emailed from the USA to Australia on January 20 this year. I had long given up on it. It arrived on May 10.

Yes I ship all the kava via USPS priority mail. I still have not figured out why outside the USA is anybody's guess as to when you will get it. I am glad though that mine never took as long as that package you described. I did have a package from UPS that took 2 months to get to me, is was supposed to take 4 days. Aloha.

USPS. It's a bit like a lottery. Sometimes it takes a week, sometimes it takes a month.

Well at least you received it. I've already experienced USPS losing my packages several times, and I am in the U.S. Can't wait for them to go out of business someday. I was going to say can't wait for them to go bankrupt, but they already are, and continue on with lots of taxpayer dollars.
