And anyone having any luck with Buyee getting things back? They basically told me that I would have to call the post offices myself and were unclear if the shipping would even be refunded...

Hmm, is this also happening with EMS? I have a package sent from mandrake on the 3rd with no updates since the 4th

FinallyWell, I finally got a package here in California that shipped Japan Post Small Packet Air on the 3rd. Only 3 weeks behind schedule Still a single DX VF-1A is cold comfort when my big package with 4 figures and as many accessories that shipped on the 4th has shown no signs of movement at all Finally

Yeah, the date it sent really seems to matter a LOT, I have a DX VF-1A Max that shipped out small package Air on 4/3 and did nothing for 2 weeks, but now it looks like it is finally in California. Fingers crossed it will get to me tomorrow! Meanwhile one HUGE consolidated package that shipped on 4/4 is STILL without any updates. so who even knows what is going on? DHL still seems to be working great though, but the cost is steep...

So here is maybe a small ray of hope for people in shipping purgatory. I have something that shipped Japan post small package air mail on April 3rd (6 days before the delay was announced but after they slashed the number of planes). And it looks like it has finally reached the US and almost arrived. Meanwhile though, a bigger EMS box shipped on the 4th hasn't moved much... but things ARE moving, just at a glacial pace.

Yeah, I have had three different items actually arrive DHL with blazing fast speed. They even beat their original estimate by a day in one case. (Shipping to the US)
