UPS express shipping to Texas..

[bforse]

This is my first post pact order - so I have no experience w/ ups. I'm about to order through snus central - just curious as to about how long it'll take to get to Texas w/ the ups express option- so someone can be home to sign for it

My experience with UPS Express thru snuscentral is generally 2-3 days. After your order has shipped you'll get a tracking number with the expected delivery date (business addresses before 10am, residentials before 7pm)... I think Express is also a guaranteed delivery service (info available at the UPS site). The cost, I believe, is only a few dollars more (~$3) and worth it.

Of course, like all things, YMMV.

BuySnus/SnusCentral has been taking 2-3 days lately. Pretty wicked fast.

It said guaranteed 10:30 - 12 on the info page I was looking at. Nothing about res or bus. Normal UPS before has been getting to my house a little before 7PM and I was pretty excited about this one getting here in the AM when I am not working.

Have you been getting them in the afternoon?

Ah - tracking is good! thanks for the snappy response.

You're right: guaranteed 10:30 - 12 --- I remember earlier deliveries differentiating between business & residential but they were not international deliveries (this was my first).

I am not sure about Texas but I was amazed at how fast they came to California. I think it was about 3 working days with buysnus.

[Jwalker]

2-3 days to California AFTER ITS LEFT SWEDEN, which can sometimes take a day or two depending on when you order. Still very fast

My newest order was sent at 4:45 am our time and is already in Kentucky 24 hours later. Right now it has a damn clearing agency scan on it though.

So, bforse, what happened.... did you order from snuscentral and, if so, how did that work out?
