I'm in Tulsa OK and whenever I order anything from Buy.com and ask for the longest ups shipment method, I get it next day because of Ingrams distribution point being near me.

I get my packages early most of the time with both FedEx and UPS. I've had FedEx hold them once or twice in Indy though. That was a little frustrating. I'm curious if maybe it has something to do with the trucks being too full so my package gets bumped. *shrugs*

I have always received my package before they said it should arrive. No exceptions. Always.

I love FedEx because they almost always deliver early. Sure, a few times it's said scheduled for delivery when I tracked it and it didn't come until the next day which was the original delivery date, but they've made up for it when packages arrive early. UPS almost always takes longer to arrive as well in my experience and I've purchased plenty online to have seen the performance of both companies.

UPS: Maybe, Once I think. Not 100% sure on that.
FEDEX: Sometimes Yes, usually not.
Airborne: Usually I get stuff from them its overnight so hard to get it early...
USPS: No tracking, so, never can tell when it's going to get here. Damn delivery guy sticks the packages under my door mat... before he knocks. He is driving away by the time I get downstairs to the door. I don't care about him leaving, but, the floor mat thing is highly annoying.

I got my set of 500 for $115 shipped. They were the "Lucky 7" dice ones....they are definately nicer than the SUITED ones that alot of people are selling on ebay (my friend has those).

def worth 11.5

i spent 65 and 15 shipping (80 all together)

ebay is the way to go

if u arent pressed for time you can prob snipe it out and get 1 for abouit 10 dollars cheaper some people claim they got them for like 55 bucks but i dont believe them

mine came with case, 2 decks and 5 dye

you get the 300 set then? otherwise 500 for $80 is ridiculus
