I recently bought something on Ebay and it took 28 days to get here to our PO box. (it was small enough to go in the box).

When you get call from post office, you will be informed the contact person and other details you can ask during call.

In Qatar, it is not delivered. One has to go to post office to collect even letters. When bank sent credit cards to me via mail, I got repeated calls from post office to collect my mail from post office. At first I was very much surprised to hear that, I got mail. It is in post office and I was asked to come during post office working hours to collect it? Then why it is called postal service?

Wait for phone call from post office after Eid holidays.

About 10 days normally - but you should consider using Aramax's SHIP and SHOP service next time
