How long would I have to wait to receive a mail sent from Finland to US?

Answer 1

Hi,

I think, there is problem about your mail.
2 months, maybe mail can be lost or something.

When I was going to high school (1980) I was apen-pall from Finland. We are sending mail each other and takes one week...

Regards

Answer 2

It shouldn't take more than two weeks. Most letters are delivered within a week.

Maybe the seeds didn't pass the customs? I believe there are quite strict rules about what kind of products you can send to US.
