You know the story. You order something off of eBay, Amazon, or other online stores, and the second, the exact second you place the order and the money goes through, you want the shipment here now. You check the tracking five times in 10 minutes, you call the local post office to see if it somehow arrived a minute after shipping, and you continuously yell out, with your first in the air, "WHY HASN'T MY PACKAGE ARRIVED?!" It's happen to all of us before. So what was your shipment, did any interesting stories come out of it, and how long did you have to wait?
Arrive Faster, Evil Package!

The last thing I remember ordering took about a week longer than it was supposed to. It was Sega Genesis Collection for the PSP.
Nothing interesting happened, and I wasn't really even that interested. I checked the tracking about once a day, and just went on with life.

I ordered the Darkness off-line and it took 10 more days then expected but for "inconvenience" i got my Shipping and Handling
I get stuff imported constantly, so that feeling is a common thing in my life. Right now, I'm waiting on 3 things that will ship at the end of July.
I ordered a headset on a Thursday and got it on Monday. I kept checking out the door every ten minutes to see if UPS had dropped it off. Took 2 more hours of hell than I expected.

I ordered a sonic screwdriver pen from the BBC, and it arrived over a month after they said it would. The words "Damn you BBC!" were common during that time.
I've never actually done anything via Ebay or Amazon yet. I should probably consider it next time I'm looking for unique stuff I like.
I'm doing something similar right now. I've been checking the shipping updates like every half hour.
I ordered the new Artemis Fowl from England, because it comes out 3 weeks earlier there than the states. And yes, I paid the 25 bucks to have it shipped here in 2 days. And yes I am 22 and still read Artemis Fowl. This is my bastion of childhood I'm hanging onto here!

I remember waiting for my PS3 to come back from getting repaired by Sony. My god, longest 6 weeks ever! lol and I raced to the post office to get it at 5pm on a Friday and they had just shut! So I stood there banging on the glass doors until some cam over and told me to stop. I said I would if they gave me my package... so they did haha
