Never a bit of trouble with them, they always ship right away or the next business day, sometimes they even ship the same day if I order early!!!

MidwayUSA has been a complete joy for me...  I have ordered at 7pm on Weds. and got my package Friday afternoon while using the cheapest shipping method.   Must be my location...

Mitchell what do you need? Lik2hunt and I are going to stop by Gene Sears Supply in El Reno on the way up,and they're usually cheaper than than Midway. My 220 Swift brass was $20 per 100,and the 223 brass was $12. Digger

the long Memorial Day weekend probably hit MidwayUSA with its personnel taking vacations like it happens elsewhere.........     I don't think it's their fault.    their shipping to n/e Ohio is excellent.

our place was 'empty' last Friday and on Tuesday with guys extending the 3-day holiday, for what it's worth.

Mitchell ...

Hope you find everything you need for your trip. Sounds like you guys are going to have a great time.

Midway has been my #1 source for reloading needs and firearm needs for some time now. I buy from my friend's gunshop whenever he is within "spittin" distance price-wise. I had one order from Midway that had a cracked ammo box (plastic). This was on sale at the time for about $1.10 of so. Midway was asking for feedback at the time as for as customer service was concerned and I mentioned the ammo box in my reply email. Within two days, I had another ammo box delivered to my place. I was shocked as I didn't ask for or expect anything. Needless to say, I have been loyal ever since.

Are you sure it's Midway's fault?
I ship for a living, UPS has dropped the ball for me from time to time. Not that FedEx and DHL haven't either. It never fails the more important the package the better chance it gets messed up. I've had them loose next day air packages.
Get a complete ship history from UPS, they can't cover their tracks there, everything is scanned and recorded.
