orders from pinkbike

[seand]

i ordered the dropin dvd set from pinkbike on the 5th at 6pm. im sure it wouldnt have been processed and shipped until the 6th. The email said to allow 6-8 days for delivery.

my questions is if the 6-8 days holds true for orders to the states, or just orders inside canada...i know the order receipt says USA 6-8 days, but with how crappy the us postal service is...i thought i would ask.

anyone from the states order a movie from pb? how long did it take to get to you??

Hmmm. WHat did PINKBIKE say?

Nice. There you go, 6-8 days to the USA. Should be a good vid set!

i really enjoyed the eps i downloaded and felt like supporting the whole dropin project....3 dvds of good riding, outtakes...and riders that i enjoy interacting with each other....good stuff!

every time i've ordered from the, i got it the next day. and its only been 7 business days so far. enjoy the dvd!

[seand]

this is what i got in response..

Sean,

Your order shipped on 3/8 via Canada Post Air Parcel which usually takes 6-8
business days so it should be there next week.

Cheers,
Mike



i cant wait!

Well there you go. I sure hope you order everything else from a certain store run by a certain website, whose BB is...well the ONE YOU'RE USING RIGHT NOW!!

Let us know how the outtakes are.

i gave em the wrong shipping address and it took 4 months:eek: :o I though they used ups or soemthing but i guess when it comes down to the us its us mail.

I find this very funny...asking about Pinkbike shipping on NSMB's website :lol:

[seand]

whats funny about it exactly? i hate the pinkbike forum, and well, dropin isnt available in this store...or i would have ordered from nsmb....

the majority of the people here have ordered from pinkbike and it seemed like a good place to ask....

hrmm...must have gone above my head then... *shrug*

Seeing that your in Seattle, it will be pretty fast. 6-8 days (business days probably) is reasonable time to the US. I would figure you would get it today or early next week. You also have to remember there is customers which can slow things down considerable which is out of Pinkbike's hand.

no no...i know..i was just wondering how long it usually takes on average - since this is my first pb order, i was just wondering what other peoples experiences were...

the us customs dept SUCKS...they broke my 4hun when it was shipped in..they broke my snowboard when it was shipped in...

i think they dont like importing goods....
