I know they give a quote on how long it will usually take to ship. To everyone who has bought a system, how long (in days) did it take you to get your system? From the day you ordered to the day you recieved it.
 
example:
 
30 days to assemble
12 days to ship

I meant the day you ordered + shipping.

2/22/10 Internal Notes By: Sarah

Sorry guess it was 7 days for shipping (5 business days). Two weeks to build/test, total of three weeks from order to at my door. I should note that shortly after I placed my order Sarah called me up to let me know that the Noctua D14 CPU cooler did not fit on the original motherboard I selected (EVGA X58 3X SLI), and asked if I wanted to select a different CPU cooler or motherboard. I selected the smaller Noctua U12P instead. I also asked in the build comments if they sold spot fans (was going to have one for the north/southbridge), she let me know they didn't. After the call she approved the build and it went to Stage 1. However the next day I had a change of heart and emailed them to change it back to the Noctua D14 cooler and have them instead change the motherboard to the EVGA X58 Micro.

Asking about the fans probably unintentionally caused an extra day delay as well because when the order was gone over on Stage 6 by Mike he called me to verify whether or not there was any changes I wanted made to the default fan configuration or having any extra fans special ordered, and I didn't get back to them until late in the day or the next day (I forget). Also just before it shipped Ankita called to let me know that they were temporarily out of the free DS t-shirts, and asked if I was okay with having just the PC shipped now and the t-shirt shipped to me at a later date once they had more in stock.

So all in all it was very quick and professional. I really liked all the constant communication and email updates.

I ordered mine on 3/15/11 and it was delivered to my house on 3/30/11. I added 4G more memory at stage 7 so that took an addtional day to install, retest and repack(which they told me would happen). It left the DS facility on 3/25 and made it here(southeast Texas) on 3/30. I figured that once it got to the Fedex facility it would just sit over the weekend but according to the Fedex shipping info it actually moved over the weekend.

Let's see:

Date of Order: 11/19/10
Date Received: 12/7/10

So, right around 18 days in total, and that included me being persnickety Big%20Smile

It was 5 days from shipment to receipt, so 13 days in the shop, give or take, for me.
