How long will it take for a package to travel from new york to England/UK?

I ordered my iphone around two weeks ago from ebay and it has just been processed through a sorting facility in New York and according to the USPS website it is in transit, does anyone know how long it will take to reach me?

Hard to say without knowing what shipping method was paid for. At this time of year, surface mail going across the Atlantic can take weeks.

It will normally run a couple of weeks. You can easily add another week or so during the holiday season.

Its probably with UK customs, you have to pay VAT and customs charges on all goods over £15 ordered from non EU countries, customs can take 3 weeks or so to process personal imports.
