Post Waiting for Detolfs
For the guys who has ordered these online. How long does it normally take for it to arrive to your door? It's been almost 2 weeks and nothing. I'm wondering if the quantity has anything to do with it.. :roll:

If that's the case then I'm wondering why they processed my order. I never saw that notice when I ordered it online. I mean the credit card charge went through and everything. :?

For some reason, the IKEA online store says it will cost $245.17 to ship it to Ithaca, NY. I don't think that is at all correct.

I wonder if I could put an order in via phone...?

Robert, you got a deal.. same thing happened to my friend last year.

Everytime I check the site, shipping is $200+ but I have heard of a few people getting the $24 shipping.

Maybe the fact you ordered 8 comes into play.

yep over a year ago Seattle was the closest store. About 3-4 hrs away. So tried to buy online and 250 was shipping. So road trip for detolf's to seattle. But good news, IKEA opens in Portland in a few months maybe less.

Wow cool. I don't feel too bad now. My shipping came out to $192.59 for 8 detolfs. My invoice said to expect a call in 14 days to schedule a delivery time. It's coming by truck I guess.

they probably shipped them on a pallet if you ordered 8 of them but even still, freight shouldnt take that long either...even if they're just on the pallet while in transit :shrugs: I remember transporting one of those to my car from ikea and it wasn't very fun, i can't imagine UPS or FedEx handling those individually very nicely..
