This is not through FedEx or DHL, it’s regular mail.

Re: How long does it take

I've sent parcels through Royal Mail (airmail) on a monday and they've arrived in pak, NWFP by thursday and I was pretty impressed by that. I think sending stuff by sea is where it takes months.

I generally find with parcels to pak, that they arrive within a week or not at all - probably due to a light fingered postal worker. But that's the risk you take when you don't send it by tracked mail.
