    It depends where you are shipping to - for most of the US it is basically the same.

    I checked my tracking online and it saids that Your item cleared United States Customs at 3:48 PM on August 16, 2007. Information, if available, is updated every evening. Please check again later. So right after it clears does that mean they ship it right along to where ever it needs to go next? Or after it clears do they wait a bit? or..?? Like how long usually after an item clears do you get your package.
