Just curious on the shipping times of this store. I just placed a big order and asked for priority mail shipping because I saw it was estimating a Tuesday delivery. Figuring my order would go out tomorrow (Monday), I was excited at the speed. Then I realized it was Tuesday of next week.

Does iboats just over estimate and deliver earlier or does it normally take a week to gather everything and then 2-3 days shipping time?

Re: iBoats shipping times

The shipping time depends on how far you are from the warehouse, and iBoats has multiple warehouses.

Everytime I've made a purchase, the delivery was tons faster then I expected. You might be pleasantly surprised.

Ok thanks. That's what I was thinking and hoping. Just hoping it gets here before next weekend.

Took a hare over a week and mine was an international shipment. I was very pleased with the speed of Iboats shipping. Usually to get stuff up to Canada takes 2 weeks and UPS rapes us on fees, not so with Iboats since they use their own brokers.

My last purchase was a new prop and some detailing products. Ordered it on a Friday and got to me in about 4 working days.

They definitely over estimate and deliver early. They just sent me my tracking number from USPS. Ordered Sunday night and it saying delivery tomorrow (Wednesday) so that's nice quick shipping.

I orderd a prop on Friday, got it on Monday. I was surprised they could ship it that quick.

Same here, but I'm close to a wharehouse. The return (my mistake) happened about as quick and my fuel guage sending unit was installed in five days.
