I've heard a rumor that if you order with B&H "standard" 3-5 day shipping, and you live near them on the east coast, you will receive your order on the next day...

any truth to this?

I've ordered a few times with standard shipping and have had it in 2 days to Columbus, Ohio. I would imagine, if it makes sense for UPS, you would have it in a day if your routing center is within a night's drive from B&H.

THANKS - I am in Philly which is about 3 hours drive from B&H in NYC, so I'm hoping you are right.

Same here, but I'm a little south of Columbus, though.

A couple times I've gotten things the next day, but generally it's the 2nd day. I'm near Baltimore, MD.

northern NJ is next day. it sometimes takes them longer to get it out of their warehouse than it does to my house.

from what i know, there are 2 different warehouses. one is in Brooklyn and the other in Long Island.

B&H ships UPS Ground, which takes ONE day from NYC to Philly. So we get "free" next day shipping AND don't have to pay taxes!
