Yes, but for some reason I can get things from PBK in less time and they are in another country. I can also get things from Nashbar in less time. They are also more consistent. When I order from Performance I might get it in two days or two weeks. There is no rhyme or reason.

Hey...........I don't work for them, I just order from them and get mine one day earlier than most expected delivery dates. I think it has alot to do with location with them. But once again, I don't know because I don't work for them. And yes............PBK I usually get in 7 days. I had one order than took over a month from them as well. It is what it is. Thing is..............don't order anything you need yesterday when it may be more advantageous to go to a LBS and pay a little more to have it in hand I guess.
