The worst thing about buying stuff is the wait. I ordered an n800 on Saturday from Buy.com, and have been checking my order status non-stop. It's really unhealthy. It's been sitting in "Sent to Warehouse" for the day. It could be that I'm spoiled because I have been ordering from newegg for years, but I'm about to fly to California and break into that damn warehouse. What's the holdup?
Ok, I realize that I'm being unreasonable. And no - I don't work for newegg. I swear, however, that 5 minutes after I click "complete order" at newegg, the package arrives at my office.
Anyway, how long will I suffer with my n800 sitting in the warehouse at buy.com? Should I pop some valium and get ready for a long wait, or should I expect there to be a package ready for me this week?
Thanks.
I ordered my N800 on Saturday the 27th of October, and I didn't get it until Friday, November 2nd. But I live on the east coast, if that makes any difference.
I'm on the east coast and it took a little less than a week for my order to arrive. I ordered it on Sunday and got it on Friday. I'm very happy with it, although I do miss the hard cover on the 770.
Odds are you will see that the order originated in Hodgkins, IL which is where a major UPS hub is. I ordered my LD-3W BT GPS module from Amazon and its origin was also Hodgkins, IL.
I ordered mine on Monday mid morning and had a tracking number on tuesday. Unfortunetly ground shipping meant i waited till lunch friday for it to arrive at my house. Man that was a long week.
Placed my order on Monday, October 08, 2007 at about 11:50pm(was a holiday), it was shipped on 10-09-07, and delivered on 10-10-07 at 3:57pm...
I was totally shocked, the free shipping was basically next day(considering that Monday 10-08-07 was a holiday)... And I have already received the first issue of my free subscription to Computer Shopper...
I've ordered from buy.com a few times and always been satisfied with the shipping times, newegg.com is great too...
