Reply to "Unbelievable Digikey/Fedex Parts Delay!!"

I'm pretty sure you didn't mean to imply that Digikey was responsible for the delay...Right? They can't really control what happens to their shipment after it leaves their hands, nor can they change the weather.

Perhaps I lead a charmed life, but I've had about a one week shipping time on multiple packages from the East coast to Southern California all through last year to the present time. I've also had good service on my occasional Digikey orders. I'm wondering if shipping to Canada is causing some unknown delay due to the world situation?

Rod, I admire your patience! It's a long time to wait for parts...

It's nothing to do with Digikey, they shipped next day. Like I said, most of my other DK orders as far back as I can remember, arrive either overnight or second day. So normally it works great. But hey, this winter has been kind of "special", and there is no one to blame for it.

Now getting OSHPark boards shipped here in a timely manner is another matter. Their regular free shipping takes AT LEAST 2 full weeks to get here, when everything goes perfectly. And their only other option adds $29.00 for expedited; which I am reluctant to pay for a typical 15 or 20 dollar board order. Call me cheap I guess. I usually wait until I have 2 or 3 board designs needing to be built. And I am getting VERY diligent on double and triple checking everything before I click the ORDER button. My junk board pile does not need to get any bigger haha.
