    Default Took 10 days for my SOLO S2 to arrive.

    Hey guys, this is my first post since I just got my new radar. I ordered it n the 19th of December as an xmas gift and opted for over night air. I just kept waiting and waiting until it finally came on the 29th. I called multiple times and kept giving me bull**** saying it was going to come in the next day or two. Did any one else have this problemt?

    Cheers.

    Technically you probably did get it 2 day air - but that doesn't mean they are going to ship it next day, or the day after that or so on. Remember - it is the holidays - weekends don't count - so if you order it on friday - they wouldn't have shipped it till monday. If they were backed up, meaning lots of orders, yours probably wasn't first priority.

    Call and complain, if that doesn't get you anywhere - send it back - demand a refund and order from someone else. I doubt they are even a authorized reseller.

    It was from Escort directly and when I spoke to them they said not to accept the package and to send it back for a shipping refund. I told them there was no way I was sending it back. It was for my brother so it's now in his car and haven't gotton any CHP encounters or anything. Quite some x bands though so I think I'm going to turn it off. Thanks for the input.

    If an outfit can't ship an item immediately it's just wrong to even accept a customer's request for 2-day shipping. Obviously you're in a hurry for the thing if you are anxious enough to pay the extra cost and they ought to tell you if they can't ship right away - especially being right before Christmas and the likelihood they're about to disappoint someone who is ordering something as a gift. Sometimes though it's easier just to write off the hassle, and in the future ask for a definite ship date and the name of the person you talk to.

    Yea I will definatly be more precautios about it all next time. But, what surprised me was they gave me a tracking number and the whole time it was perfectly on it's way, only the 10 day delay.

    Ask for credit if you did pay extra for overnight. Also, verify the tracking number with the carrier company and complain to them. I hate UPS personally, but they always give me shipping coupons when I call in and complain. Demand you speak to a supervisor, the low end person can't do anything.

    If it was shipped vis USPS, good luck with them. They are just as bad as Canada Post. Their next day delivery is only during the off season. I prefer Canpar and Purolator.
