Does DeepDiscountDVD ship your order as it becomes available or do they wait until they have every item in stock? I was doing some pre-ordering and this thought crossed my mind.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Um....
As a long time cigar trader I've sent many a package to many a person who has sent many a package.
1st Class has the same delivery time as Priority Mail in 98% of the cases. The only real difference is that Priority Mail is loaded into the plane(s) first. If there is a HUGE rush on mailed items (Christmas, etc.) then there might be a slightly longer delay, but otherwise there is none. I also have heard that extremely rural areas can get Priorty Mail a bit faster.
Save yer money, go with 1st Class.

How does this explain CH? If you get priority shipping from them, it takes less time than regular ground; a difference of 2 weeks.
