My experiences with PBK and Nashbar have been similar. PBK, in my opinion, is simply over estimating and over delivering. I would prefer this. I will say that we save a lot of money on products purchased from PBK, Ribble, Wiggle, Merlin and etc. The savings is worth the extra shipping time, if it actually occurs. If you are in a hurry than I would recommend that you buy locally. I hate to be so matter of fact but this is reality. It is hard to predict the shipping since it changes hands a few times. I have never had an order from any of those companies take longer than 2 weeks. For my company I have many vendors that I use. If I choose shipping options it usually lists UPS ground as 5-8 days. My company is in Jacksonville. One vendor is in Miami. If I order product today before 10am, I have it the next day, even on standard shipping. It still says 5-8 days though.
