Just some details on Canada customs for you fellow Canadians:
Customs is there to tax imports (GST/PST), the customs office is there to clear packages into Canada and make sure contraband is not included. They are allowed to keep the packages for 2 weeks to give them time to inspect the contents and evaluate possible taxes, or search for contraband (some stuff it is just plain illegal to send via mail even though it's legal to have, electronics rarely if ever falls under this in Canada).

It is pretty rare that they'd "seize" a package for inspection (they open it, look inside and see if it matches the customs declaration), and even more rare that it would hold the package up for more than a few days. What is much more likely is that it has had many stopovers along the way. Always use registered/tracked mail if possible when getting stuff imported, as it comes with at least a form of tracking that canadapost will update if it's held by customs as well as when it is delivered/out for delivery.

Hmm, after checking this thread again, I went to the gameyeeeah site to see what was going on, and my account specifies that I haven't placed any orders yet, and that my order wasn't confirmed!
That's *NOT* what paypal says!

I advise you guys to do the same and double-check.

I had the same problem. Found this on their site
Q: I have pay the order by the Paypal, But no order, and the items still in my Cart.

A: If you used the Paypal to do the payment, and not "return back" after you do the payment, then its will not create order at our website and the items will still remain in Cart. Please don't worry about this order, we will find the items and do the shipping.
Express shipping, Please visit http://www.gameyeeeah.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=2 to get the tracking number.
Air Mail, Please Wait 12-18 days for the item delivery after you place the order.

I ended up emailing them and they fixed my order problem the next day.

Hope this helps

Well, I'm not exactly in any rush. As long as it arrives I really don't mind waiting a little longer. The price on Gameyeeeah was quite good so I'm not complaining. After all, they lose control on the package once it's shipped.

Will let you guys know once I receive it.

contact gameyeah, ask them for a tracking, theres a number you can get that cant be actively tracked but you can take it to your post office and get it tracked that way.

also check your yard, i've had a package come in on a windy day, it blew it on my yard, it was grassy and lost in my grass, i found it about a month or 2 later when i was mowing the grass, mower started to spit out yellow shreded paper.
