Shipping!!!

[edwin012290]

im planning on ordering from the fencing.net store and plan on using the 2nd day method of delivery. its 9:40 at night on a Wednesday...so when will my order arrive? Saturday?

I'm saying it'll get there Monday at the earliest. You're ordering during the evening, and then there's the weekend, so I'm assuming that'll complicate it.

i...so when will my order arrive?

Well, the sooner you order the sooner the goods will arrive!

Personally, I would say "2nd day" means Friday. Thursday would be the first day, Friday the second, but that's just my opinion.

Monday ..

The shippers will pick it up Thursday. If it doesn't go out Thursday morning (not always guaranteed), they'll process it Thursday night and it will go out on a plane first thing Friday morning and be shuffled around all day Friday. Usually that means it'll be sitting at the local delivery depot on Monday morning.. (2 working days to deliver it, once it gets to them... )

Also depends if you have a Saturday delivery option, or need to go pick it up at the shipper. You *might* get it Friday, or Saturday, but I'd bet Monday.

Having said that, depending upon *who* the shippers are, and *how close* you are to the shipper, you can get get it within one day. I'm about 100 miles from Fencing Post and I once got a package overnight, even though it was shipped "2nd day". (Ordered first thing in the morning, it arrived next afternoon.... it must have managed to get into the morning delivery/ pickup cycle, and then on the local truck up from San Diego area, to the local distributer here that night.) Some merchants give you a tracking number which lets you track where the package is, abit with about a 6 hour time lag.
