This is kinda sad...onvia vs. buy.com

Ok, so wed. night I order a buncha CDRs from buy.com and since then this is all that has happened with shipping my order (from UPS tracking site):

Well, my burner will be here 2 days before my CDRs...guess I'm going to best buy tomorrow...

just enjoy the new burner... i mean, you can play with the included CDR and CDRW while you wait

but then, burning at those speeds, it's not much fun at all

NOOOOOOO!!!! Ok, I check my tracking and both are at the destination now (CDRs from buy.com too )...but! Those lazy UPSers don't deliver on sat./sun.!

This bites...I'm gonna have to wait till Monday. Oh well...

It's been the other way around for me. Most I've ordered from buy.com has arrived in a day or 2(except my monitor) while most from Onvia has take up to a week. It may depend how close the warehouses are from you.
