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!
