Marvel Legends Two-Packs

I'm wondering if its where you guys are located. Almost every time I get a shipping notification from BBTS it arrives on my door at most 4 days later. Even with weekends. Most of the time, its within 3 days. And I'm in Pennsylvania. Now it does take them a day or 2 before it ships out after I hit ship my loot. But it is here relatively quickly most of the time.

Yeah, I was going to say it has to do with location. With the exception of Amazon, BBTS is easily the quickest of anyone I buy from in terms of shipping time. I live in Iowa and usually have my shipment from them next day. I've even had some that arrived the same day that the package was picked up from their warehouse in Wisconsin.

Now, it may take them a couple of days to gather and ship a Pile of Loot, but that's usually because I let it build up for 90 days before I ship, and it's usually at least a $1,000 shipment or more and usually has to come in multiple large boxes.

On the flipside of this if I buy anything from McFarlane Toy Store, it takes a minimum of two weeks from the day that they say they shipped it until it hits my door from North Las Vegas to Iowa. I had one particular shipment of all in-stock items that I ordered and paid for in early December of 2023 that didn't arrive until February of 2024.

So location matters with timing. BBTS has been my default buying option for many, many years - but I also have found myself giving more business to Amazon because it's just so hyper-convenient.
 
I try not to let my PoL pile up TOO much. I'd be paranoid about an order worth a grand shipping all at once and it getting lost or stolen or whatever. I usually ship when I have 6-10 items in the Pile.

From Wisconsin/Minnesota to NJ, it usually takes about 4-5 days. Much better than California to NJ (Entertainment Earth). Pulse is usually fastest. They used to ship from Pennsylvania, but seem to be shipping from Illinois these days, but that's still the fastest of the main e-tailers I use. Of course, Amazon is the fastest, but they don't count in the same way since it's not always a centralized place they're shipping from. We have so many nearby distribution centers. Less common places I order from are TFSource and AmokTime, both in PA (though sometimes TFSource stuff comes from Las Vegas/Nevada.

I’m in Pennsylvania as well.
 
When I ship my POL, it usually takes a couple of days for them to actually ship it, then it's a minimum of a week to get to me in Texas. Usually it's about 10 days total from the time I click to ship the POL to my doorstep. Had a couple times it arrived faster, but I'd say on average it's about 10 days.
 
I bought Deathbird on Wednesday from EE and still no movement and that's after I emailed this morning to say what's the hold up. The response produced no urgency. Amazon would have had it here already.
 
Western PA? I think it'll be sooner. It usually arrives 2 days before the estimated date for mine.
