One order arrived in nine days, one was held at the border for a fortnight, and one came back with a seizure notice. Same route, same declaration wording.
The narrow version of the question is which of the variables in a cross-border order actually determine the outcome, and which are superstition.
I have searched first, so if this is covered somewhere point me at it and I will read it.

My experience ordering cross-border ordering internationally: I've ordered from a UK pharmacy. Customs can be hit or miss.
Shipping time: 7-14 days
Customs clearance: smooth, no issues
Quality: Janoshik tested at 98.2% purity
International ordering adds complexity but can save 60-80% compared to US prices. Research your country's import laws first.

International shipping tracking for cross-border ordering orders: my experience with customs in the US when ordering from overseas:
Seized and destroyed — had to get a reshipped package.
Tips: always include a copy of your prescription, declare medication properly on customs forms, keep quantities reasonable (personal use = 3 month supply max), and use a vendor who has experience shipping to your country.

Can confirm. Same sequence, different timescale.
Clinical perspective, offered as context rather than as advice. Take it one variable at a time. Almost every unanswerable question in these threads is unanswerable because three things changed in the same fortnight, and no amount of subsequent argument can untangle them after the fact.
That is the short version; the long version is somebody else's post.
