Obviously Parts Express because of same day shipping and where I live.

Galen Carol though, is in Texas. I orderd a Target shelf on Sunday night, at my door direct from the distributor, Wednesday morning.

Handmade Electronics ships same day, too.

Ditto Michael Percy who now uses Priority mail for almost everything.

And for now, the new waaaay off-topic champ, Zappo's Boots. Went shopping for a new pair of Timberlands last night, couldn't find the right size. Came home and Googled my way to the Zappa site and placed an order. Due to arrive today with free freight. Hope they fit! Too bad Zappa doesn't sell caps and wire.:-)

Parts Express ships pretty fast to me too, provided what I order is in stock. Aki at BOI Audioworks has always been real quick. Eminence ships fast. Eric Mainardi at Selectronic ships amazingly fast, considering he's in France.

Most of the parts houses I've dealt with are pretty fast. Kits are a little slower sometimes because they have to gather parts from inventory. Bottlehead is an example. I ordered a Seduction phono stage and didn't get it for nine months. Must have had to birth that one. The Paramours I ordered were quicker, two months from order to delivery if I remember correctly. I guess I'm another example - We used to be fast, but have slowed down a smidge. We used to almost always ship same day, but now we're usually taking three days for stuff in stock, ten days for out-of-stock and a month for special orders.
