I guess I could be as an ignorant complainer. I'm not ignorant of the current supply chain issues, including shippers and also bottlenecks caused by personnel issues. It's not necessarily complaining to describe the length of time it's taking. It might be helpful to others who are considering purchases from overseas vendors (whether going east or west). I know when I started seeing my shipment delayed, I searched to see if others were having the same problems.
One of the issues I am complaining about, I guess, is the hard to interpret tracking info that DHL provided, and the lack of any easily accessed point of contact for clarification. But other than that, I don't like it, but it is today's reality.
