It sounds like UK Customs have their claws into it.  That usually adds between 
1 and 2 weeks to the delivery.  If it's a parcel, you'll get a letter from 
Parcel Farce charging you 17.5% VAT on the commodity plus cost of carriage and, 
depending on its category, import duty plus £8 handling fee.  If it's a small 
package, it'll be handled the same way by Royal Snail.

I'm awaiting delivery of a $71 package that will probably cost me an additional 
$38.

Sorry to be a potential harbinger of doom and hope it gets cleared soon.
