It probably was sitting in a Parcel Force building somewhere all that time of course.
I bought an item from the US through ebay recently, used their Global Shipping Program so paid all import duties etc up front and no waiting about for letters.
Item made it across the US in about 48 hours, flight to the UK took about another 10 hours then parcel force took almost a week to get it from the middle of England to Glasgow.
