Tips to Stay Ahead of the Christmas Rush
Plan early whenever possible. Carriers experience their highest volume of the year and delays are common. Choose the right category. Custom PCs offer maximum personalization but PC Lab systems and RDY prebuilts offer much faster turnaround. Upgrade shipping if you are close to the cut off date. Two Day or Overnight can make all the difference. Monitor your tracking information and keep an eye on your email for fulfillment updates. Check your region. Alaska, Hawaii, APO and FPO addresses and Canada may need additional time.
