Why do "Next Day" or "2nd Day" deliveries sometime take longer than that to arrive?
Orders sent via "Next Day" and "2nd Day" are delivered to you the next day or second day from the day they are shipped. An order may not always ship on the same day it is placed.

Placing your order very late in the day, after the shipping companies have picked up their last shipment, is one factor that can affect shipping time. Also, due to the nature of items in the order, some orders may take longer to put together, pack and ship than others.

As a rule, you can expect orders shipped "Next Day" to take 2-3 days to arrive, and orders shipped "2nd Day" to arrive within 3-4 days.
