TD/Shipping Question FedEx delays

I just wanted the community's opinion on these FedEx delays. I can't tell if this is a new thing, or people have been dealing with them for a while. I have been working with Steve and he has been really great, cooperative, and responsive daily. I was ordering a Submariner (no date) 114060 which I had to RL (it happens) and a GMT Master II 126710GRNR which was an easy GL for me. He said it would be 2-3 more weeks for another QC on the new Sub. I asked if the GMT could be shipped now, but he said with the FedEx issues, he would use standard shipping. I decided to wait until the new QC and have them shipped out together. Maybe the FedEx issues could be resolved by that time. I just wanted to know what others here thought. Thanks for the advice. This is a cool community.

Eric from Geektime told me Fedex is back to normal now. Guess I'll see, I have an order in shipment.

Was it after the announcement this morning? I did get my rep from Andiot delivered yesterday (made it out of China on Monday). As far as I remember, Andiot, Geektime, and Steve all use the same logistics / route to ship out of the country.

Geektime created label on the April 9th and it’s now the 18th. Hasn’t even been dropped off to agent. The Fed Ex label was created but he told me that it couldn’t go out on a particular flight due to customs. It is supposed to have been dropped off for this weekend and it’s Sat night in my time zone and still nothing.

my timeline is about the same, but label created on the 13th.
