Has anybody
overnighted anything from Performance? I ordered a new seat and booties last night (the 2nd) with overnight shipping. I got a confirmation of the order, but no tracking number as of yet...
Experiences?

The thing about Performacne it seems is that they don't put the order into their system for around 24 hrs. Then they start the clock of shipping. I have found that I get (with the free upgraded shipping) items in about the same ammount of time it should have taken normally (3-5 days).
Performance shipping sucks.

I will consult with St. Shimano during my evening prayers and get back to you on this.

Performance shipping doesn't begin its suckage until after Performance Order Processing completes its own pre-shipping cluster ****.

I take it you are well-versed in this saddle already?
Otherwise, seems odd to order a saddle without ever having your arse on it in the real world first.

i placed an order Sunday night with the upgraded 2 day shipping and have not received a shipping confirmation yet. however, by my bad math the order should arrive at my door step today or tomorrow at the latest.

I've done it before. I forget what it was, but I needed something pretty bad. Anyway, as long as you order before 4:00 PM Eastern you'll be fine.

Are you guys ordering before 4:00 PM? I've never had a problem that way. If you order after 4:00 PM it should take an extra day for the order to be posted. They explain that on the website.

I don't have a choice. The shops around here don't have enough coin to carry all of the saddles I would like to try. Yet another reason Montana is a poor choice for cyclists.

Performance sucks harder than just about any mail order entity I know. I simply don't go there anymore. God they're just brutal. Somebody should email the url of this thread to the idiots there today.

They do send stuff overnight, once it's shipped. It's the "once it's shipped" part of the equation that is sometimes frustrating to me.

I called them to confirm that it had been handled. It hadn't been touched yet, so I replaced the booties with hair removal stuff. On a side note, the (old) woman I talked to kept calling my saddle a shoe.
