Well thats the compromise of buying something online. The waiting period.

Anyway its much more fun this way. The UPS guy comes to grab the package. You grab a screw drivers.......and the fun begins.

Plus in this huge ass city going to a shop to get this card will take whole day. First of trying to find a store that has it is a bitch...

Hrm did u pay for overnight shipping or something? because 1 day to ship is fairly fast considering the distance it travels.
