Ordering Stuff Online Sure Is Great

So last Wed (10/19) I decided to place an order through the Atlanta Falcons Fan Shop, which is a part of NFL-shop.com, for a Devonta Freeman throwback jersey. Received one follow up email which was only a thank you for ordering and here's your order number so that you can track your package. Waited till today to call up and see where my order was, and found out it's still being processed, and won't even leave the warehouse for shipping till Wed (10/26).
When I placed my order it said the shipping takes 3-7 business days so I figured it would arrive between the 24th and 28th, which is perfect because I ordered it with the intent of wearing it to the Falcons/Packers game on (10/30). Well, that's not the case. The customer service rep said it will ship on the 26th, so expect it to arrive 3-7 business days from then. I told them that's way too slow and needed it before the 30th. Apparently they can't even upgrade the shipping to 2 day because it's "too far" into processing and they couldn't even cancel my order at this point if I wanted, which now I do considering it won't be here in time.
My options now are a) to wait for it to get here after the 30th and then return it for a refund, b) to wait for it to ship here some day the week after the 30th and keep it, or c) buy it from somewhere else before Sunday.
I feel like I've been wronged here, and there's nothing I can do about it.

I think your gripe is with the NFL Shop and not the internet.

I went to home depot yesterday to buy some shite cuz I wanted it that day. Was too expensive so I bought it for half the price on amazon while in the store.
Worth waiting to not get ripped off.

I ordered a couple Perlis shirts last Wednesday morning before 9. On the website it said it ships the next business day and the shipping map said I should get it in 1 day. I still haven't received a email notifying it has shipped. I might return them out of spite.

In many cases, that means it takes 3-7 business days for them to ship it, excluding however many days it takes to get to you when they do ship it out. It's not good to always assume shipping time = delivery time.
Also, the items on NFL-shop give a more detailed estimate of processing times. It can vary by item ordered.
Next, they have a satisfaction guarantee, so maybe call back and try to leverage that in some way.
lastly, jerseys are trashy, and Falcons jerseys are worse. Grow up, peter pan.

Have a downvote you pitiful prick. I ordered some work boots off of Amazon a couple of hours ago for half the price I would've paid at the store.
Posted on 10/24/16 at 11:56 am to NotoriousFSU
Yeah well, I needed a part for my lawnmower. Ordered it off of Amazon Prime and for $6.00 shipping it was in my hands in less than 24 hours.
Pretty amazing.
