Am I missing something or is there a way to get a different shipping option than ground UPS.

It takes 10 days for cigars to get to me.

Which, to be honest, really sucks.

I looked for options to go with faster shipping and there doesn't seem to be any.

I know for a fact that priority USPS is not that much more and is a whole lot faster.

Anyone know where I am missing the shipping option?

And yes, I have the ship Daily marked.

And yes, I sent request to them asking, I just thought someone may know.

Talk about 0 patience... Just Kidding, I'm in Germany and they get here sometimes in 4 days. Sounds like something is wrong.

Hey Man,

Call Customer Service,

I requested USPS, for much of the same reason. They ship all of my gars, that way. If they ship on thurs. I get them Monday, here in Arkansas. If they ship on Friday, I get them on Tues. UPS always took, 1-3 days longer.

Later

as others here in the west have said, I get mine on the Thursday following the day they ship ... which does bring up a point ... IMO, you should stop that daily stuff and get 'em shipped weekly ... you're killing yourself with shipping costs

I live in Maryland just 170 miles from CBID. They ship on Thurdays and I get fresh cigars on Friday. Sometimes it's good to gloat.

Ships Thursday, arrives Tuesday here in Tampa.

The only time I ever had anything more than a day off was a package that never made it out of the UPS Jacksonville distribution center. Must have been one heck of a herf there that day! Of course, CBID customer service traced it and sent a new one promptly.

Ships out on Thurs and arrives the following Thurs without fail. Predictability is good for intercepting those boxes. Now where is he?! (waiting impatiently...)

I live in Oregon.

It sits 2 or 3 days in PA, so that is part of the problem.

Once it finally gets to Portland, it is an extra day to me.

I used the form to ask customer service about it and have received no reply yet. That is really irritating.

I guess I'll have to call them.

Suppose their hours are eastern 9-5, so I'll probably have to wait until tomorrow. 😞
