I paid for 2 Day shipping, but it took a week to get here!
| When you choose to expedite shipping, the indicated number of days
starts from the time the order is processed, not from the time you place the
order. For example, if you choose 2nd Day shipping on 10 pounds of marinade
and there is a posted 1 week delay on order prcessing, you will receive your
shipment about 1 week plus 2 days later. This still gets the product
to you faster, since the time in transit is still just 2 days, where it may
normally take a week after it leaves our facility. |
