Always do your research on shipping nuances before finalizing an order (know your carrier, shipping method, arrival expectations/guarantees, etc. through the entire route.) The results vary greatly depending on the carrier and the shipping option, you can find out a lot online or by chatting with someone at a local shipping center by simply asking about your shipping options (price and arrival expectation) would be if you wanted to ship a small approx. 3lb/1kg box to X location.

Personally, with international or domestic I plan to pay for the fastest option available anytime a live shipment is involved. Some carriers deliver to certain locations on the weekend, others don't. I recently shipped a postcard to myself from central China to the US (Seattle, WA area) and it took around a month. I was surprised but it made me realize that economy shipping can take a looooong time when it's crossing oceans and borders.
