I have been going through SCW for about 5 years and this year was the first
time that I found it necessary to overnight an order. It was the week before
Christmas and I didn't want to chance it. The order was shipped via Airborne
so that morning I placed a note on my door to "knock or ring bell" and they
did just that. Of course being home, I had my crickets inside within
minutes. After the holidays, I resumed the regular "3-Day priority" mail and
the shipments have arrived just fine the next day---- even with our extremely
cold weather. BTW, SCW is in Mississippi and I am in Ohio! Fortunately,
there must be a direct flight route between here and there!
