Has anybody received their COMC Black Friday orders yet? According to the website, mine's not supposed to ship until 23 December, but I've seen in the past that some folks get theirs earlier than the estimated date posted on their account. 

I've also noticed that over the last two years it's taken incrementally longer for COMC to ship after I place an order from their Black Friday sale.

In 2017, my cards were ordered 11/24, shipped 12/9 and in 2018 they were orderd 11/25, shipped 12/12.

Thanks!

I got an email about 10 days ago saying that orders would be shipped by the 23rd, not received by the 23rd. An error in the system they said. However, on Friday I got a notification that my order had shipped. Maybe it's sitting in my mailbox right now awaiting me...

I just checked and mine says it will ship on 12/23 also.

I received mine December 10

Mine shipped 12/4 and received 12/14  Requested shipment Day after Black Friday.  The odd thing was  It stated delevery date as the 10th then 11th then 12th then 13th then the 16th.  It set in several locations for several days each.    This is their new ground delevery ($3.99)    My other orders have run from 3 days to 14 days per USPS.  Most in the 5 to 6 days.

My original to be shipped date was Dec 11.  Got email Dec 7 that it had been shipped.  In my hands Dec 10.

COMC switched from direct USPS shipments to a Pitney Bowes based third party that takes responsibility from COMC and then delivers your package to your local USPS PO.  The process takes a week plus longer than the three days most shipments got to me from USPS first class shipments.  Also the tracking information from this third party system, well, lacks.  I was going to politely email COMC that I hoped they would go back to directly working with the USPS.  I am still waiting on a delivery form 12/6 from COMC.

Just got my order today.   It sat in Atlanta for 5 days before magically showing up in my PO this morning.

Not a good look for COMC from where I stand.   But that's up to them...

I received my order last week. I requested shipping on Friday, and didn't wait for the rest of the weekend. I was actually surprised to see it get shipped out by Tuesday.

Thanks for all the great responses! I'm curious to know how and why COMC generates and fulfills orders with varying dates.

I placed my order on the 28th and my estimated shipment date was automatically generated as 23 December. I wonder if it was generated based on the number of cards in the order (over 200 cards in my case), instead of the order in which a request for shipment is made. 

Thoughts?
