Hi everyone, I'm anxiously awaiting my headphones from a thingfling back on July 19th or something like that. Anyway, it shipped on the 21st. Its now the 29th so its been 8 days and nothing has arrived yet. This is the longest time I have EVER waited for any shipment on the internet before. Where the heck is thingfling on some other planet because this is stupid, shipping should have been free. Why pay to wait all this time? Even from California I've never had a package take this long, even if it was sent PARCEL POST. So anyone have any help or explanation for me? I'm sure now that I've said something it will just randomly show up because things happen like that all the time to spite me. Either way 8 days is a joke.

Shipping can take up to 2 wks or more. Be patient. you can always open up at ticket at the Help desk to inquire about how long it will be.

Since you said WHEN it shipped...I am assuming (  I hate to do that!!) that you've tracked it with Fedex...correct?? IF so...it SHOULD say expected date of delivery...which makes me think I shouldn't assume!  I would check with Fedex first, THEN if it's not there by the delivery date, I'd open a ticket. 49 Flings Flung and WAAY more to come!Female in case you don't know LMAO

Sorry, I should have been more specific. I work for a shipping company, won't name it, but anyways, the tracking number I got was a USPS tracking number. I assumed they sent priority then after 3 days, I then knew it was Parcel Post. I dunno, I've just never waited this long and I guess with USPS just because they make the label doesn't mean it actually went out that day so who knows when it went out. I figured it would have the day the label was made but maybe not. Thanks for the comments and suggestions hopefully it will be in tomorrow.
I'm used to shipments going USPS Priority mail 2-3 days, UPS ground 3-5 or Fedex ground 3-5 days, so now that I'm on the 8th day I just didn't know. But thanks for the help, I appreciate it!

Blah, well to spite me, the package did not arrive! Shipment day - 9.
This is getting on my nerves. I've never had to wait this long for anything. I'm actually in NEED of my thingfling to be able to listen to my MP3 player @ work, which is what I've been waiting to do, for 9 damn days. Ok 8 days since Sunday doesn't count, but still 9 days after I get my shipment notice and tracking # and it still has not arrived? Don't want to name anything but on another site which I ordered the same day as this fling, my package arrived 3 days later. Since its been 6 days since that has arrived I'm just a little concerned. Thanks for the help everyone!

Heh.. The last time I sent something parcel post through USPS, it took about a month to finally show up. granted it was from the east coast all the way to the west coast, but I was really sweating bullets there for a bit. Ever since, I pretty much religiously send priority mail. I've always had good luck with priority. i do agree, considering the shipping paid now... I wish they'd use priority when going USPS. If it does not show in another few days, shoot them a help ticket if you haven't already. If they deem USPS lost your package, they'll likely send you another.
