I see a lot of people getting anxiety over how long they have to wait for their books. It almost always takes longer than you want it to .
So my question is how long is it for you until the anxiety sets in that makes you start watching your mailbox ?
The publisher usually, not always, gives a suggested delivery timeframe. I allow the maximum plus maybe a day or two, then send an inquiry.
I think it depends on where your magazine is coming from. Some take longer than others.
I learned a long time ago to always keep a little extra of whatever you need for peace of mind .
So I don't worry anymore
After 3 weeks I start wondering and will reach out.
I have mailbox anxiety anywhere from 10 days onwards. If it's longer than 3 weeks and nothing, not even a LL, I reach out to them
Depends on what your told.
30 days+ most of the time its not looking good at that point.

2cweeks, but I’ve waited more than a month when postal issues are known to happen
Keeping a little extra, or even moderately extra of what you need is a very good idea.
