Harbor Freight shipping time? Those of you that have ordered from Harbor Freight, how long do they typically take to send the items out? I ordered tools from Sears and Harbor Freight on the same day (July 30th) and the Sears package showed up in 4 days. Its been two weeks for the HF package and it has not arrived yet.
Had I known it would take 2 weeks or longer, I might have just went to a local store and bought what I needed. Still waiting on my 1/2 air impact and some air tools....

Re: Harbor Freight shipping time? It usually takes a while. they ship using the USPS. It took 2 1/2 weeks for my welding cart and pneumatic saw to come in by mail. Or you will recieve a postcard saying that the item is either backordered or cancelled (if under $10). Their shipping time is lousy, but they have cheap prices. Also, their online customer support is pretty good, if you can stand a chat room style customer service.

Re: Harbor Freight shipping time? Consistently two and a half weeks here in Kansas. Last year they opened a local branch store, so I pretty much just go there for stuff, even better and more deals at there...

Re: Harbor Freight shipping time? Thanks, I'll give it another week. I really need that 1/2" impact though. Had I known it was a 3 week wait I'd have just bought one locally and ordered the rest of the stuff from HF.

Re: Harbor Freight shipping time? so, in other words, never order from Harbor Freight if you need something quickly. lol
Maybe I'll go buy a 1/2" impact at Sears today and just sell the Ingersol one I bought when it arrives.

Re: Harbor Freight shipping time? I was in the one in Columbus, Ohio today....I couldn't find one person who was helpful and everything I wanted to buy they had no accessories to go with it??? I was looking at a Bandsaw and a 10 inch bench sander (like a grinder), they had no blades for the saw and no 10" sanding discs??? I finally bought a chop saw and called it a day. The prices are good, if you can find what you need. I hope this situation is limited to my local store. Do you guys have the same problems when you go to the retail stores?
