    I apologize if this is in the wrong section.

    I ordered my laptop 2 thursdays ago, and on July 2nd I received an email saying it was shipped (from the US, I'm in Canada). They shipped with Purolator , and I checked the tracking info but it's been the same since Friday, and when I called them they told me to expect it soon. I'm going to assume they shipped it over this weekend. Should I expect it to be here tomorrow or Wednesday?

    Thanks guys, any input is much appreciated!

    Edit: Oh, I forgot to mention that it's an Alienware M11X.

    It's probably stuck in customs. Can take a day or two to get through.

    Also, in the US it was a holiday weekend which typically delays shipping a bit. A lot of business observed the 4th yesterday, which backs up shipping since they wont ship on holidays assuming the businesses are closed. Which means today they have double the packages. Just gums it up a bit, im sure you'll have it soon.

    Ah yeah that makes sense. It's roughly 12:30 pm here now and no delivery, so I'll just assume it'll be here either tomorrow or atleast by Thursday. I totally forgot about the 4th of July weekend in the US too, so that will definitely put a halt on shipping. Thanks for your input guys!

    p.s Just noticed there's a separate section for alienware >_<, my bad.
