Does anyone know how long it typically takes Copper to ship something once ordered? I can't bear to wait more than 2 weeks!

Oklahoma 428,

On 5/14 I ordered an Antron 99 antenna, coax, a bunch of PL-259's and some mic plugs. I called Copper with my order around noon that day, and by 1:00pm on 5/16, all of the items were on my doorstep.

And not only do you get fast shipping, you probably won't have this happen:

I found an amp on sale at "another distributors" website. The catch was, you had to buy the amp for the sale price and you would get a "free $100 grab box". The amp was also listed apart from the "special" for $20 more than the "special" price. After reviewing the shipping costs, I found that I would be charged roughly $10 more for shipping if I purchased the amp and grab box than the amp alone. I then called the distributor and requested the website special, at the special price, but without the grab box. That way, I would pay the regular shipping charge for the amp alone, saving $10. What ended up happening is that I got charged for the amp at sale price, no grab box, but shipping charge as if I had ordered the grab box as well, in other words, SAME SHIPPING, NO GRAB BOX. What the hell??? I should have kept the crappy grab box. The main reason I didn't want it is because the person I spoke with informed me that the grab box was NOT electronic toys, items, gadgets, but most likely sunglasses or as she put it "flea market stuff" Oh well...live and learn.

Thanks for the input, and you're both right they must be pretty reliable since I saw other guys wanting up to $56 AND UP! For an Antron-99 I found one here for roughly 40 bucks! And right before I typed this post they contacted me with my shipping confirmation! All Hail Coppers!!!
