    See, I noticed when I tracked my package today it said that I would get my notebook on the 8th.

    I acutally got the shipping number today since I got it, I wanted to see what was going on.

    I noticed that it said that my Package let its Origin on Jan 3rd at 10:15am, then 2 hours later it said that as of Jan 4th the package is in transit.

    I know that China is ahead several hours.

    So my question is this:

    Will the package get to me on the 7th or the 8th, since the Country is I day ahead of time?

    I was told my new lappy would be built by 01/04, but I actually received it on 12/31. This is the second time they delivered early.

    I really do hope I get it early. I'm even hoping that I get it this Saturday instead of Monday or Tueday.

    I just want it before Tuesday, cause I start school again. They said that I should get it by 10am on tuesday. But I have to be at school by 9am. and it takes me 45 minutes to drive to school.

    If you know the tracking number and it says it's in their facility you can call them up and tell them you'll pick it up personally so you don't have to wait for delivery. They will hold it for you and as long as you have a proper ID you can pick it up, don't forget to bring the tracking number with you.
