Placed an order at B&H last Saturday 10 / 16. 2 day expedited.
It got to Memphis last Tuesday and has been there ever since.
Finally got a human being on the phone at Fedex today and he said " that it is not unusual"???? really???
So.. just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this kind of shipping delay

The whole logistics and supply chain are having major issues. Memphis is their major hub.

I got two items from B&H via FedEx shipped last Wednesday afternoon and received by 9:30 a.m. Friday morning. I have had literally hundreds of items shipped to me via FedEx over the years and don't recall a single issue.The large number of FedEx delivery problems people are reporting must depend on their locations.

I bought a LECTRIC E-Bike on September 1, 2021 and When FedEx picked it up in Phoenix, Arizona, after a Pick-up was ordered, it took 5 days to get to my home in Michigan, arrived September 16, 2021. So with all the "SHIPPING-DELAYS", IT WAS ONLY 5 FEDEX SHIPPING DAYS, It was 11 days from order date to the actual ready for Pickup date. Not FedEx fault. The box was 75 pounds too.I had FREE SHIPPING too.

It seems every city/town/area has problems with different delivery companies. My Fed-Ex and UPS drivers are great but USPS is the pits. A package with my medicine was incorrectly labeled (by the company) and USPS sent a message they would return it to the company. It was 18 days before they processed it for return and another 5 to get back to the company. Thank goodness I had enough to last until the new bottle arrived.

Our postmaster general has stated that Amazon packages will get priority over the rest of the mail so I can expect prompt delivery of those items. I'm glad I've changed all my bills to online so I don't have to wait for those to be delivered.

The only carrier worst than FedEx is UPS. Two weeks ago my wife and I ordered items from different sellers. She got her's in three days and I'm still waiting. Her company used FedEx, mine uses UPS. I"m glad it isn't ice cream.

Watch the news! There are supply chain issues locally and around the world. Some stuff gets through more quickly if it happens to be in the right place at the right time. Aside from everything else many companies can't find enough drivers who want to work. So, an item might look like it is moving along and then gets stuck in one place for a while.

Like in 2021.

We ordered some perishable food product recently that were to be delivered by FedEx. My FedEx shipping kept saying “potentially delayed.” Yes it was delayed by 5 days, when it arrived all the product spoiled and we had throw it away. The company was kind enough to replace the product and this time it was delivered on time.

If you read the information on the B&H web site you will see it is two business days. Also you will see that items ordered over the weekend will not go out until Monday.I ordered a lens from B&H on the 16th, it went out on Monday the 18th and even though it was routed to Florida through Fort Worth it was delivered on the 20th, which was two business days. It has been well covered that there is a shortage of warehouse workers and truck drivers. Your order may have been delayed because because of those issues. Schools are altering start/finish times due to a shortage of school bus drivers. It’s unfortunate but some delays are inevitable. The days of instant gratification are over.

FedX Air has typically been good in my experience. FedX ground is a mess.

Not with FEDEX but USPS. Sent a desperately needed check to a relative 75 miles away and it took 6 weeks to arrive. It was not a remote area. The second one took a little more than a week.

I think social media is rotting peoples brains.
