Single Item Ground Shipping. How Long?

Question

It is Dec. 17 and I have just ordered a baseball glove via Single Item Ground Shipping. It cost like eight dollars as opposed to the free regular ground shipping. Will it be here by Christmas?

Answer 1

depending where it was shipped from and to where it was going and if it actually was shipped on the 17th...

if it went out 12/17, it will be there on time, if not, it may not be there for Xmas.

Answer 2

Wouldn't it be best to check with UPS,  or whatever service you'd be using.  It depends on the distance.  There's no such thing as "free regular ground shipping".  I mailed a package UPS Ground on Saturday.  Well, I went to the UPS place on Saturday.  The told me by Friday the 21st, but ground is never guaranteed.  Butit's going from the east coast out to California.  She said "probably" the latest would be the next working day, the 24th.  The $8.00 you paid is for regular ground shipping.. Ground is ground, there's only one speed.  And, as I said, it's NEVER free!!.  You will probably get it before Christmas if you ordered it today.
