what should I do? I haven't received my Etsy package!?

So I have previously purchased from Etsy a couple of times and I've never had a problem .. Until now. So what happened was that I bought a phone case from a seller in Peru. His shop policy says that its too expensive to use express shipping so it take about 3 weeks for it to arrive here in the US ( I didn't read that part when I first got it). I sort of understand since it's international I guess. I purchased this case on March 20th, it's now April 21 and I still haven't received anything.

I've exchanged emails with the seller and he said he called the post office (on march 14th) and said there was a problem with customs and it would "at least deliver on Friday" well that was a week ago and I'm losing my patience with this.

I feel like a month is ridiculous. I'm torn about whether I should request a refund, report to Etsy that I never got my package or if I should wait longer.. What should I do??

    International shipments can take awhile, especially with customs issues. With cheaper shipping, things are often traveling long distances by truck, boat, etc. -- not planes.

    In the future, be careful buying internationally. Hopefully a cell phone case wasn't that expensive, and you can just sit back and wait.

    Some Latin American countries have very slow mail service. You should have bought in your own country.
