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.
So the question, as narrowly as I can put it: which of the variables in a cross-border order actually determine the outcome, and which are superstition.
If the honest answer is that nobody knows, that is a useful answer and I would rather have 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 an Australian compounder. Customs can be hit or miss.
Shipping time: 5-10 days
Customs clearance: was seized once, reshipped free
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. Posting only so the count is not one.
Clinical perspective, offered as context rather than as advice. There is a difference between no evidence and evidence of no effect, and this subject is one where the two get swapped freely in both directions.
