Slowest Shipping Ever!
-
I placed an order on June 11th, Got an email saying order shipped on June 16. USPS didn't actually receive until the 22nd. Checked on order today and it should be delivered on June 29. You've got to be kidding me.... two books take that long??? I ordered something from IRELAND on the 18th and got it on the 25th! I will never order from Overstock again!!!

Hello Zen2me, I apologize for any frustrations regarding the delivery of two books you have purchased on our site. With media items, the can take 1-3 business days to ship from our warehouse and 15 business days (or 3 weeks) for delivery, as stated on the product description page. If you would like to send an email with your order number to ceo@overstock.com we can certainly take a look at this to make sure the order is okay. We appreciate your business and apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused you.

I echo the slow shipping comments. Guess I'm spoiled by sites like Amazon where it's order today, ship today. Perhaps Overstock should consider beefing up the warehouse workforce and updating inventory control software? I placed an order on June 24 and it's still "processing" on June 28. I could have ordered the same item from Amazon for a few bucks more + sales tax and it would have been delivered either yesterday or today. I'm thinking a few bucks more is worth faster service.

I would like to order Kraus Stainless Steel Undermount Kitchen Sink, Chrome Faucet/ Dispenser to be shipped to Buffalo, NY. What is the possibility that it will get to me on Friday this week.

The item # is 12579781

Hello bigbh, thanks for posting on the Overstock.com Community forums. The item you inquired about will ship within 1-3 business days from the order and would arrive within 5-10 business days. Unfortunately even our most rapid shipping option of 1-3 business days delivery would not be guaranteed to arrive by Friday. Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Bought an SD micro card. Tracking says it left the Opa Locka, FLA facility on the 16th, and apparently it's taking the summer scenic route across the 48 contiguous States. Please come visit me in Los Angeles. We have Disneyland, the Hollywood Bowl and nice weather!

I agree with the slow shipping complaints. 2 days ago, I ordered some electronics from Overstock and Amazon within 10 minutes of each other. Because I'm accustomed to free shipping, I didn't even look at the shipping duration during checkout of either site. My amazon package is sitting at my house right now. I just finished talking to an Overstock rep who told me that I'm looking at over 2 weeks to get my shipment. I don't buy the excuses that Overstock sells here. If amazon can get packages sent out of their warehouses quickly, and shipped quickly, why can't Overstock?? I just think it is internet suicide to not be able to get shipments out in a timely manner. On a side note, "many credit card issuers have policies against merchants charging a credit card account before shipment" (http://www.ftc.gov/bcp/edu/pubs/consumer/credit/cre28.shtm). My credit card has been charged, and hasn't shipped yet. Seems to be a little close for comfort.

That's interesting... I've found Overstock to have exceptionally quick shipping... The first time I ordered something from them, I received it even before I was notified that it had shipped, just a day or two after I ordered the product. The other time I purchased an Overstock product it also arrived within a few days. Also, I'm extremely impressed with their return process- it's smooth and simple and they even refunded the shipping cost which I was not expecting. Overall, a nice experience.

I ordered one book from your site and the shipping is Ridiculously Slow! I received an email that said that my order has been shipped on 7/19 and when I check the tracking number 10days later it still says that usps has only received information about the order, but you actually haven't sent it out yet! I expected at least my order to be send out by now! This is absolutely ridiculous! I regret ordering from you and will never do it again!

Hello ellyvegas1, We are sorry for any inconvenience this order has caused. The standard shipping timeframe for USPS media is 2-15 business days.

If you have any questions or concerns please call us at 1-800-843-2446

I was thinking about ordering the Texsport Lodge Square Dome Tent for my vehicle and I NEED it by 13 Aug. If it takes that long to ship somewhere in the US, then I have doubts about it ever reaching the east coast of Canada. What to do?

Hello anlac1, we'd be more than happy to discuss the issue further with you! Please contact our International Department directly at 1-801-559-3816. Thank you!

I completely agree on how slow overstock's shipping is. They shipped my item out last Tuesday, 6 days later I havn't gotten anything back. When I check the status, It says it left Pennsylvania On Friday, which is only 2 hours from NY. I don't know why it would take this long for a book to travel from PA to NY. When I contacted customer service through the chat option I felt like I was talking to a robot and not a real human being, because they had no idea where my book was and gave me the generic answer of "It should arrive 2-15 business days" This is the first and last time I'm shopping at overstock. Amazon will be getting my money from here on out

why would they send an email saying that the item (a jacket) has shipped when FedEx hasn't even received the item yet??? and i'm in the same boat as the guy above me who already got charged for the item when it technically hasn't been shipped yet. this is my first time using overstock and so far i'm not impressed. i got the "your item has shipped" email a week ago and FedEx is still processing it??? It's not even going to be cold by the time I get it!
