On December 6, 2020 I purchased a Ushanka from an Etsy seller in Ukraine. The hat is supposedly handmade and even though it was more money and very far away, I felt better about buying it than a surplus army one. The seller shipped the hat the next day and I have zero complaints with him and his attentive communication.
After a month it landed at the ISC facility in NYC which is an hour away from my home. Thinking it will arrive to me by the weeks end, I see now it is on the way to a Chicago distribution center. Once they finish the process there it will ship back to New Jersey using most likely the same route it took to get there.
Perhaps by April my winter hat will arrive.
Does anyone know why the package would need to go to Chicago without being sorted first in NYC. and why can't postal be as efficient as Amazon or UPS.
