MidwayUSA -- Good Fast Shipping

[Steve Donlon]

I use Midway all the time and always choose UPS, never a problem. If you sign up for the upgraded UPS service, even if it gets redirected to USPS, you can stop that from happening and keep UPS as the shipper. Plus you can track your order and see where the truck is when it's "OUT FOR DELIVERY"

Not for me !
Just amused at resurrection of old thread, and particularly right after Black Friday/Cyber Monday frenzy of sales.
If anything I would love to watch the packing/shipping department during the preparation of the cases of CCI BR-2/BR-4 primers recently offered for near pre-C19 price points by Mid South. Given that my order tracking already indicates in route, and I took advantage of free shipping/hazmat, I can very patient indeed.

My first thought was the OP finally goy his order.

Not quite like the last time the shortage ended and primers were $100-150 per 5000 delivered. I think suppliers learned not to back order so much stock and have it all show up at once. It pays to wait.

I’m to the point of paying the upgrade to UPS and leaving usps out of it. USPS could very well have your package and no one competent has scanned it. My packages sit in various regional or local distribution centers in St. Louis for 2-3 days before making it to my local office. Especially during the holidays. UPS is essentially overnight delivery from midway.

I made an order Monday and it just shipped today, so Midway may have been backed up from the holiday sales as well.

I did that last week to get a new reloading manual and a few other things, they tacked an extra 8$ for UPS on top of the regular shipping which came to $16. Too much, but my driver is a heck of a guy on personal service.

Here is a tip on how to get around the surepost bs. USPS cannot ship ammo. So every time I order from Midway, I first make sure to order over $100 worth of stuff (not hard to do!) that way shipping is free. Then I add a cheap box of 22 ammo which makes them ship UPS for free. Works like a charm.

Midway is great but their tech service lacks alot. I bought a barrel that was rifled with a shovel. Talk about rough. So I sent it back and sent a note to send another one if someone could please bore scope it before shipping so I didnt get another barrel as they ignored me complletey even though I gave them 3 ways to contact me. I am still a faithful customer but that left me baffled.

I will tell you right now that Midway USA defined a new meaning for fast shipping.I ordered some of the new Sierra Gamechanger Game Kings from Midway Saturday morning and was holding them this morning.Less than 48 hours.How is that for service.
Thanks Midway and Sierra .

I never thought they would do that. That's a great idea, thanks.

Agreed! I was looking for a B&A specific trigger for my ELR 300 NMI. Their importer did not have any in stock. Midway had a dozen, and for $25 less, and free shipping. They are my "Go-to" shopping company.

Midway now says usps picked it up but it has never checked in to a usps facility. If it hasnt appeared somewhere in 10 days, i can get another order or refund. Ya just cant make this stuff up

I count how long until it ships. That is usually always no more than 3 hours after I place the order, mostly no more than 2 hours.

It's NOT shipped that fast.
Label created is NOT shipped.
