I think your situation is complicated by the lead time for manufacture, but I can tell you this for sure: the preshipment notification means nothing at all regarding delivery time, only tells you that the seller has requested service from the local shipper that he uses. Here's the good news: I've had items delivered while their status was still listed as "preshippment". My theory to explain this is that the local shipper can't communicate with USPS in a way the system can digest, and probably not at all. This why it usually won't track until it reaches the destination city, if at all.
The other issue you have is unusual size/shape: this will likely attract the attention of Customs. Unless you ordered like scud missile parts or something Customs won't be a problem, just takes longer.
