I'm in Connecticut. On December 6, I ordered something from Mineola New York, about 3 hours away. Here's the itinerary so far (read from bottom up). I'm sure the magic shipping system will eventually get it right -

Shipping is often an interesting gamble. I've had things shipped here (Utah) faster from England or Japan than from Rhode Island. You just never know.

In the “good old days”, Federal Express (pre “FedEx”) would ship all overnight packages to Memphis, sort them, and then fly them to the destination the same night for delivery the following day.

But I don’t think that’s what your package is doing… Fingers crossed it makes it back across the country!

You should have it by Christmas - but not sure which year.

Had an e mail from Moss this morning that my order had shipped. It arrived about 2 hours later. Must have been one of these new fangled Drone Deliveries.
