Placed an order on 3/1 for BBs and a Fire Selector switch.
On 3/2 I recevied an eMail stating that my order is being packed for shipping.
Have not heard anything since. I need my items by 3/12 and that doesn't look like its going to happen at this rate.
It's one thing to pay $15 shipping on about 8lbs of stuff cross-country, but 5 days order processing is ridiculous.
EDIT - Items came today, 3/11. I left the thread as it is to have a running record of my purchase.
To be honest, taking that long to process seems ridiculous to me. Plenty of both larger and smaller businesses are capable of shipping the next business day, 5 days to process 4 is inexcusable in my mind.
Granted, they are the largest Airsoft retailer stateside, but I would first try a few more local places before placing an ASGI order again. If I am forced to do business with them, I will be sure to have at least a 2-week lead time.

Mine took about 4 days to process, and I didn't get the email saying I could track it till it was basically at my house. 12 days will be enough. It should* come in time.

Thanks for the re-assurance. Let's hope that holds true.

I've had generally good luck with ASGI processing time, however a friend of mine placed an order with them last week and his order took an abnormally long time to process as well. Like Chaffin said, it definitely should be here by the 12th.

I'm going to give them a call in the morning just to be sure.
When'd you place your order?

You will probably have it on Wednesday. ASGI usually may take forever to process the order but always make sure to have UPS get it to you on time.

FWIW, he said it is still processing when I called today. May be processed today or tomorrow. Tomorrow would make 6 days. When I called they said it takes 1-5 days to process, and their site says 1-4.
I am just considering canceling the order. For as many good things I have heard about ASGI, I can't believe they are so damn slow.

Let's hope. They predicted 4-5. I just got notification that it is on its way to UPS. Too late to cancel now, hopefully it works out for the better.

Yep, and although it "shipped" today, UPS has not even taken an Origin scan.
Huge shoutout to wildcard who PM'd me around 10 this morning, and had a switch and gas block as part of a trade Priority Mailed to me by 4 this afternoon. Looks like I am going to make the game regardless of ASGI's lax order department.

That's interesting that you had such trouble. Years ago GI was predictably horrible at processing times, but the last few orders I've done with them it has been within a day of the order. Must reflect how busy they are...

I just placed a rather large order with them on Friday, and the order is still processing. However this is only technically day two as I didn't place it until about 9pm. Though when ordering A TON of items are out of stock; I can only assume they are extremely busy right now.
