Originally posted by HoustonBob I have the expedited 3 day delivery. Which - of course - means it will take 5 days to get here. (Its free; only a dollar. Sorry, old Firesign Theater joke).
And yes I know its 3 business days - that just works out to five Calendar days. Of course B&H "Shipped" on the 3rd - evidently just missing the evening UPS pick up. UPS didn't pick it up until the next day - which is why it is still in NY two days after B&H shipped it.
I'm in the same boat. Mine "went to the warehouse" Tuesday, got a shipping label, then I got my "shipped" email about 8:30 am yesterday.
An hour later UPS knew about it, and they picked it up last night and it went to somewhere in NY last night to be sent out again (on a truck, presumably) after 10:00 pm.
And that's "Expedited Delivery"... I'll admit that Amazon's Prime service has spoiled me. I'd almost forgotten UPS did "ground" service... but if "Expedited" is regular ground service, what is their regular shipping like? Maybe it's that guy riding a bicycle from New York to Houston...
I won't be angry unless it misses the Monday delivery they told me, but I'll admit to being less than delighted with the B&H shipping times.
