I read some posts about Monarch computer said that their shipping speed is even faster than Newegg. I checked their site and their "free shipping" use Fedex ground while Newegg use Fedex express saver.

I want to ask those who have bought from them before, is Monarch's ground shipping really faster than NE's express saver? Their price is good, so I want to try them.

Thanks!

I ordered parts from Newegg and Monarch.

Newegg's items shipped first, but Monarch's got here first.

Anything coming from Newegg's New Jersey warehouse takes a full five business days to get here. If it comes from California, it is usally three days.

Monarch's stuff got here in three days.

I'm in Iowa BTW.

It really comes down to luck of the draw with Fedex.

Ground shipping VS. express saver?

Express Saver for both.

I'm in AL.

Monarch is in Georgia, so it would have to get to you quicker than California or New Jersey.

Not to mention Monarch has better pricing than Newegg on a lot of items anymore.

I've found Newegg to be quite noticeably faster then Monarch. I live in Illinois, and I usually use FedEx 2nd day air for any orders.

For some reason, Newegg is extremely fast. My last order took about less then 24 hours from the time I clicked "add to cart" till it was at my door. :confused:

But all the "free shipping" items on Monarch use Fedex ground shipping.

If you're in Alabama, our free shipping method should only take 2-3 days to get to you once it ships from our warehouse.
