Okay so my order (of

\"pheros\") was shipped out last Friday (via US mail) and still hasn\'t gotten here. When should I start getting

concerned? Sheesh the postal service is usually quicker than this, even across the country.

Nbnbtc....


I have always had my orders delivered by the USPS in 3 days!!! EXCEPT the last two.... one took 13 days

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/mad.gif and my Pheros was shipped on the same day as yours was, and I still

haven\'t gotten mine either. I do expect it on Mon or Tues, so wait at least two weeks before you start to get

concerned. I\'ll be spending a few more dollars from now on to get the Priority Mail.... 3-4 day service.

Most packages fall in

the 3-5 day range; quite a few only 2 days even (maybe 10-15%), but a full week is not at all uncommon (maybe as

many as 10% fall in there. From there it gets rarer and rarer, but alas we hear of customers waiting 2-3 weeks

sometimes. 7-8 days is unfortunately pretty common.

Gossamer, glad to

know that I\'m not the only one. I guess we will both be crossing out fingers these next few days! You are right,

my packages used to arrive in just a few days too, I don\'t know what has changed lately.

My bottle of Pheros arrived today..... look like it took 10 days this time

/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif I guess its better than the 13 days it took my last order. Yours

should definitely be there today or tomorrow. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif

I placed two

orders recently. One sent from Thialand, the other from Mexico. They shipped the same day using their respective

country\'s postal services. The one from Thialand arrived several days ago, the one form Mexico still hasn\'t.

my Pheros FINALLY

arrived today, 11 days after the fact! This has made me a convert to priority mail that\'s for sure.

I wonder

whether tax season may have affected the shipping for Pheros?

Easter.
The

postal and freight business always gets thrown by easter. The effects come in to force about a week beforehand and

take a few days afterwards to sort themselves out.
Freight companies over here even get mucked up by long

weekends. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Did anyone

realize that we are fighting a war? God knows what Bush is doing with our tax money. My opinion? I ship fedex

overnight every time. They provide ship tracking and convenient speed every time. Oh, and also, I always order with

cold hard cash /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif

don\'t you yankees

have an equivalent of of our postal orders here in the UK?
Basically if you don\'t have a credit/debit

card/cheque to pay for stuff, you can get a postal order by going over to the post office, pay them however much,

and they will give you that much in \"postal order vouchers\" which you can send through the post.

try this
