Overstock.com shipping...

For anyone how has ordered from this site, what was your shipping experience? It seems that the shipping time is pretty long.

Standard (which is on special for only $1 right now) is 5-10 business days NOT incl processing time! That's a huge window and a long time to wait. Expedited is pretty expensive & the choices are equally vague: 1-5 bus days, 1-4, or 1-3 (for $55!!!).

I have never had a problem with them. The stuff seems to come quickly. I would say usually I get my stuff within a max of 5 days. And it is soooo cheap (often ever free), so I don't complain!

I have not ordered from them for a long time, not because of shipping (as I recall, it was fast) , but because of the HORRIBLE experience I had with customer service when returning an item. They then went on my 'do not order' list!

Although I've never had to return anything, I have ordered several things. I think I've always received my items within 5 days as well. I've always been pleased with the delivery time and costs.

I love Overstock.com. I've ordered from them around a dozen times in the last few years and their shipping has been really speedy. I haven't ordered anything in the last few months, so I don't know if this economy has changed their past shipping practices. If I ever need sheets, pillows or curtains, I always check with them first.

I've ordered a few times and get my merchandise withing 5 days or some reasonable timeframe, and I live all the way in Oregon. I ordered my Valor Squat Rack from there for a the best price on the internet, as far as I could tell, and it got here in a timely manner. Also, ordered some dresses, and sent some back because I didn't like the fit, and had no problem with returning or credits. If you order clothing, they don't do a very good job of describing the fit in the description (length of dress for instance). If there are reviews, I look at the reviews to find out if there are fit issues(does the piece of clothing run small or large?).

Anyway, I'd most definitely order from there again if I needed something and if they had the best price. Can't beat their shipping fees!

Thanks, all

I knew I could count on you guys to give me the scoop!

Even though I want it RIGHT NOW, I think I'll take the chance on the $1 5-10 day shipping & hope I get it sooner rather than later. You're right abt prices - this is the absolute lowest price I've ever seen for this desdigner purse I want, even lower than on eBay!
