How accurate did your items ship on there estimate date?

It feels like it takes them longer for them to ship an item, compared to like newegg.

I wonder if its just a "to be safe" thing to give them a lot of time.

ya, just wondering.
 
If its a normal item mine ships just about equal to what they tell me, mostly a day sooner if anything different.

However, their pricing mistake type stuff takes a looooonnnnnggggg time. I ordered the ATA860's @ $24.95 a couple years ago, it was supposed to arrive the last day before christmas, I was told that by an actual operator and that the price was a great deal....sometime 30+ days later I got ATA885's instead. I was shipped several different speakers (all cheapies) during that time.

Yep, same here. I ordered a Lexar multi-card reader and they estimated that it would ship near the end of this week, but I got it last Tuesday.

Between Dell and Newegg I'm a happy camper 🙂
 
The usually ship early for me (5 out of 6 orders), but they always charge me way to much tax. I live in TN, so I'm unlucky enough to have to pay tax on Dell orders, but they always charge 10.75% tax when TN state tax is 9.25%. They do this every time, and every time I call and argue with them to get it dropped back down. Every time I win but am left feeling frustrated, and still I go back.
 
i hope they overshoot by a couple of weeks, estimated shipping date on my digicam (bought on saturday) is set at june 25 🙁
 
ordered from Dell last week for the first time (got in on the 4600 deal).

I placed my order and it got built and shipped the very next day. 2-3 days later it was in my hands
Very happy customer

Now if I get my $100 MIR back in a reasonable amount of time, I will be even more happy 🙂

You wanna order me stuff, then ship it to me? 😛
it might be cheaper in the long run... LOL!!!

Considering tax on my new laptop was $242.11 (uncorrected for the 10.75% tax) I would have been willing to pay $100 to cover shipping and a little profit. Hmmm, I need to make a friend in Oregon.
 
quick question again, dell SB section says 1-2 days to ship the planar PX171M-BK 17-inch Multimedia LCD Monitor is ready to ship

now my order status says delayed, Currently one or more items are not available. Every effort is being made to complete your order.

which one do i go by?
