    Were they in stock or backordered? Did you happen to notice where they were actually shipping from, or get a tracking number? I remember seeing an article recently about them moving whatever portion of their business to Mexico. Did you pay for expensive expedited Air Freight? If not, it can be 4-5 days just from California to New York via normal Ground service. It's not going to be a big box, so it might not end up going on a boat.

    So without more information, you'll be only speculating about it. 7 days could be possible, but I wouldn't be standing around your mailbox waiting for it to show up.
     
  4. I stayed with free shipping. I thought it was the UK version as all prices were in GBP

    It says in stock

    If they have stock of the part already in Europe, their 4-7 day quote is plausible. They do that warehousing and all EU shipping from Netherlands. It should not get stuck in customs. https://www.fender.com/en-GB/store-policy.html#shipping
