So, has/will COVID-19 affect shipping times? Has anyone experienced long customs holding times?

I assume this can happen.
I have ordered some electronics components from China late January, and the have not even shipped yet due to the total lock down.
I don't think cargo planes are included in the traffic bans that the different countries have imposed, but there could be other factors
So anything is possible in these unfortunate days.

About 3 weeks ago I ordered some prototype PCBs from China, they were produced and shipped in the same time as usual.
Also, I know from my Chinese suppliers that they are back at work mostly normal.
It seems the worldwide parcel logistics still works normal, as far as I can see it.

Everything seems fine here...the first box with Gargantua got here today, anticipating the other one in a few days...

just to let you know, it seems that in France at least the postal services are apparently now down, except in a few big cities (for now). It all moves very fast...
take care !

Here in Spain, we have a similar situation...
Whilst I believe packages will get to the nearest big town- I don't believe anything is then being delivered to villages and houses.

The only stuff I'm worried about is out of China...and I have a few things from there that are in transit. The most expensive is a Hydrasynth, but that's Sweetwater's problem. But I also got this fuzzbox after hearing a demo of it on YT, and it ships direct from the PRC, so who knows when it'll show. Amazon currently says "1 April"; I'm going to bet that that's wrong.
