Electronic Goldmine shipping cost and speed

Let me preface this by saying I'm all about supporting the smaller companies out there...you know, the "mom 'n pop" stores of yesteryear which seem to be a dying breed...

Placed an order late night on March 11, and it was confirmed and marked shipped on March 12.

The website has a button to track the shipping, but it isn't clickable. Just there for show, I guess...

On March 15 (yes, 3 days later) I received an email from UPS letting me know I have a package coming. Hmmm...I thought it had shipped 3 days ago...The best part? Scheduled delivery is March 21!

Now, if the shipping was free, can't really complain, right?

Well, my shipping cost was $21.28. For a 5.8 lb box. Every item in the order is very small - there are no large/bulky items.

Newsflash, Electronic Goldmine...free shipping, or at least "minimum order" free shipping, is the de facto standard these days.

If you're going to charge through the nose for shipping, you better get that box out the door by the next day, with a 2-3 day delivery, max.

Steer clear of this place if you value your time and money.

Nothing special, but I found some good deals. Then I placed my second order, wanted to purchase 40 switches along with some other stuff. I waited 4 days and sent an e-mail asking if my order...
