Placed my order on July 9, got my invoice this past Friday. Already marked shipped. Almost 8 weeks exactly.

Just got mine, around 9 weeks I think. Always worth it.

Ordered one in March, it arrived in July.
Good communication with John. Was able to change my order from 9.5 to 7.25 after two months, without losing my place in queue.

I got an update on my order. I ordered about 9 1/2 weeks ago and John told me my order will be ready within the next two weeks… that would make the 8 weeks into 11-12 weeks.
I‘m not in a hurry… so no problem. Just a heads up to anyone who was wondering…

Update: my package should be finally out of customs (after two weeks) and as I wasn't at home today... I'm gonna pick them up tomorrow.
I made a rookie mistake this time that I haven't made ever before. Normally when ordering from Staytrem I took ONE single bridge and one or two vibrato arms. Two times I bought used (70-89€ - so a pretty good price). And one time when there were no exports, Jon was kind enough to get me two bridges and an arm along with the body he made for me (so no extra costs).
This time I ordered "just" two bridges. Only that the prices have risen - and I was way over the 150€ "limit" - so this time this meant custom fees - and if I deciphered the amount correctly - it will cost me 51,15€ ON TOP!
Which put's them around 115€ a piece instead of ~93€ for one (86€ without shipping)
So my recommendation, if you order from the EU: best order just ONE bridge and ONE arm (if you need it). If you should need more: make individual orders.
On the good side: shipping costs have been moderate (6 pounds instead of 17,5 - maybe due to the reduced size?)
