These delivery stories can always be kind of interesting......
When I order from my local store directly, my bag always comes the very next day...usually pretty late, but since it's the next day, I don't care. The oddest time was a very dark, pouring down rain night, around 8:30pm when I heard a knock at the door. It was a soaked-to-the-skin fed ex guy holding my coach box. He said something about having had trouble with his van, and being out in the rain trying to fix it. I invited him in to dry off, warm up, and have a cup of coffee, but the poor guy said he still had deliveries to make and had to run. Talk about a bad day at work!
The only trouble I've had is when my local store had to order my safflower Lindsey from Jax. It took forever to get here and when it did, it looked like an elephant had sat on the box. Fortunately my Lindsey was fine. I did call my local store, however, distressed, because I store all my bags in their original boxes and I cannot have a crushed box in my collection. They immediately sent out a nice new box.
I don't track deliveries of stuff I order unless they don't show up for some reason. I like to be surprised (and I sure do get surprised sometimes....that nightime delivery when I was in my jammies took the cake!)
