UPS messup for my own good?

:lol::lol::lol:
Wholy mother of #$@!#@!#!@. UPS LOVES ME!

The thing was supose to ship standard (opteka 20D/30D battery grip from 47th street), and come Feb 17-23rd. I'm in Canada. I just tracked it via Amazon, and it says Feb 23, even though it's already in Canada. I tracked it via UPS site, and surely enough, it should arrive tommorow, as it says shipped by express, and because it's already in Missasauga. I don't know why (maybe they realized I'll get dinged by brokerage via standard, although I thought standard mean't USPS, but they didn't specify.) Either way, if it comes tommorow, I ain't complaining!

Track it yourself and see!

This happens lots of times with shippers. All the packages pretty much go through the same network. If however, it gets real busy, the packages with higher priority go first. But if the shipping pipeline is not full, they all ride the on the same plane.

Interesting. It's just a little weird because New York and Toronto are not that far. Still, it is amazing how fast packages can travel. I have a package coming from China, which was ordered Wednesday, shipped today (well tonight for China time I think), and supose to come Thursday I think (3 business days.) The guy who runs that operation upgraded me to EMS for free.
Corey, in Canada we have postal codes. LOL.

I think when you ship that far though, the price difference between EMS and standard is very low.
