OK..... I know there is a logical answer for this but I cant help but wonder and maybe someone can enlighten me? Why is it that items purchased from thewatchcollector take SO long to get to a U.S. location if the item is located in Redmond Washington? I know I'm missing something here but what is it?

I dunno but I just find it a bit strange that he states the ITEM is located in Redmond Washington! NOT a big deal I guess but seems to me to be a bit on the mis-leading side!?

NOT a big deal I guess but seems to me to be a bit on the mis-leading side!? Redmond WA is his paypal billing address. He may be doing it this way for some tax reasons. The watches all come directly from the Philippines. As to why it takes twice as long to get to you in the US as opposed to me in Canada...you'd have to ask US Customs and/or USPS. I'm pretty sure he doesn't wait an extra two weeks to ship to US addresses.
