One order arrived in nine days, one was held at the border for a fortnight, and one came back with a seizure notice. Same route, same declaration wording.
The narrow version of the question is which of the variables in a cross-border order actually determine the outcome, and which are superstition.
I have searched first, so if this is covered somewhere point me at it and I will read it.

International shipping tracking for cross-border ordering orders: my experience with customs in the US when ordering from overseas:
Package cleared customs in 2 days, no issues.
Tips: always include a copy of your prescription, declare medication properly on customs forms, keep quantities reasonable (personal use = 3 month supply max), and use a vendor who has experience shipping to your country.

My experience ordering cross-border ordering internationally: I've ordered from a Canadian pharmacy. Customs can be hit or miss.
Shipping time: 10-21 days
Customs clearance: held for 3 days then released
Quality: Janoshik tested at 97.3% purity
International ordering adds complexity but can save 60-80% compared to US prices. Research your country's import laws first.

Adding a me-too, because a thread of one person's experience is not much use.
From the other side of the consultation, briefly. Order of operations matters more than any single choice here: establish a baseline, change one thing, wait long enough for it to express itself, then measure again under the same conditions.
