KerryGear.com: Can anyone tell me how quickly you've been able
to receive merchandise from them? While the shipping map shows 4 days to my location, I keep seeing mention of delays of 3-5 days before they even ship and that up to 10 business days to be expected for shipping.

Are they really this slow? I'd wanted to buy one thing and receive prior to election day, but at that rate, it doesn't sound like I'd get it in time unless I want to pay 20 times what the item is worth to express mail it.

Your experiences, please. thanks

7. What shipping zone are you in-- was that 7 business days total ?
I wish I hadn't promised to get some of these items in time for the election, especially since it took 10 days for people to make up their mind what they wanted. Now, shipping time is critical...

9. I don't remember if they have alternate shipping methods...
Maybe they'll let you do a one- or two-day delivery. Yes, it was 7 business days, so about a week and a half, total. I'm in FL, probably one day longer (shipping-wise) away from a major community.

10. They only had one alternative (overnight) and it still says it would take
2-3 days before they ship--and for that shipping was going to be >$50!

No choice, there are only 6 business days left.

3. Mine took almost two weeks
but it was right after Kerry picked Edwards and they could have been printing the new ones at that time. I would think it would be faster now.
