Title: What's your "crazy fast shipping" story?
Post by: poobread on April 07, 2012, 05:53 pm
The shipping forum by large is a pretty paranoia-inducing and serious place, and for the right reasons. In this whole process we take part in, shipping is the point at which the buyer and vendor are most vulnerable.

I thought it would be fun to hear some success stories of times you were absolutely blown away by the shipping time of something (Aside from things that happen to originate from very close by). I've had this happen to me once, so I know it must happen every now and again.

Once, I had a parcel ship from Texas to the Mid-Atlantic US in a literal 48 hours. I placed the order very early Saturday, it got to me on Monday morning. I could not believe my eyes. Anyone else have stories like these?

My first order ever was placed on Friday, and it got here Monday. EU to EU, but I didn't expect it to arrive that fast. Was too busy being paranoid anyway...

I've had the same thing.  Must be something about Saturday shipments..

About 2000 miles shipped Saturday-> arrived at destination Monday

My first order was a time machine, I received it faster than expected, got it in my mail 3 years ago.
