Hi,

Here is the tracking info for this weeks Digikey order. This week I ordered on Tuesday about 6:00 pm local time.




It looks like it is slightly improved. I am hoping to get the parts tomorrow.

I've placed an order at DK Sunday night, and received it today, as it would normally be the case - but it was shipped from Canadian warehouse in Winnipeg, MB, so that probably explains the speed. Mouser order is taking an extra day (at least) - it's at the local Fedex station right now, so hopefully it will be delivered tomorrow.

Hi,

This week I ordered at 2pm, earlier than previous orders.

This meant that the order was processed in Thief River, MN. It was placed in a truck and drive across the border to the Digikey facility in Winnipeg. I don't believe that there is any inventory of parts in Winnipeg. It was picked up by Fedex.

Note that on Tuesday, FedEx said it missed the delivery vehicle, so you would have thought that it would have been on the delivery vehicle today. But no, FedEX has given the package to a third party for delivery. Hopefully I will get the package tomorrow.

Jay-Diddy,

Shipping to Ottawa from Digi-Key is definitely messed up lately. For years and years it was next day 90+% of the time.

Lately it could be up to 5 days, especially if not ordered on Monday or Tuesday. I noticed that when it arrives the next day it seems to take the path through Winnipeg and when delayed through Memphis. I actually wondered if they had a warehouse for common items in Winnipeg, but apparently not. I called Digi-Key and complained. Seems like something is broken in Memphis.
