    DHL is far and away the worst carrier I have ever used and I find that most people feel the same. It is not fast at all in general lol.

    Though if you actually have next business day shipping I'd imagine they should be able to manage....but just dont be all that shocked if they dont :(

    I live near Pittsburgh and have had good luck with DHL. Shipments from California take about 3 days, and anything east of the Mississippi takes about two days.

    I don't really like DHL, but they have been good to me so far.

    It seems DHL takes all shipments to Willmington, OH to their local couriers. Luckily I live in Ohio! :-D

    Yes your shipment will be there, im sure they have more than a thousand packages they need to send out your way from Wilmington.

    On the other hand my laptop will be here in a few hours! :-D
