When I was still posting overseas, Germany was notroiously slow. Sometimes it would take 6 weeks, one took 8 weeks. Stuff would get stuck in customs for several weeks. Thankfully the buyers I had from there were patient and were willing to wait a bit longer. All parcels eventually arrived. One buyer contacted customs after contacting me and they said yes, the parcel was there and it will be released when they feel like releasing it. It was difficult with that buyer because he didn't speak any English and I didn't speak any German. Thank heavens for Google Translate!!

It wasn't long after the last delay that I stopped posting overseas. It was too stressful. Plus the fees on postage kicked in.
