I have bought from Tower many times before, and out of
curiousity I've actually tried BOTH sea and air.

Air usually taken me about 10-14 *working* days... and as I usually go shopping on weekends, that means about 2-3 wks. This is for decent sized ("kit") parcels.

Buy less and Tower will send in a padded bag... these usually seem to arrive faster, say ~10 days.

The only time I tried to save $20 by going 'sea', gee whiz it took 10 weeks to arrive, no joke.


Have also tried getting Tower to send 'locally' ie to US address. Even paid extra for "overnight" as it HAD to reach within 3 days to a friend's US place... but whaddya know, still took 4 days and it missed my departing friend.
