But just think, it will be that much sweeter when your parts arrive.

Went through this same thing a few weeks ago on a Digital SLR camera that I ordered. Tracking info had said out for delivery from 8AM. When I got home from work, I expected to have it by tops 5 or 6 pm. When it didn't arrive, I gave up. Turns out the UPS guy didnt get here until 8PM. No Xmas rush either...those guys work some long hours....

The major problem with shopping online or by mail is the lack of instant gratification. Good things come to those who wait. (I don't really believe that - but hopefully it makes you feel better).

We're rooting for ya!
