I forwarded the camera setup listing to a buddy of mine and he bought it. We've been looking for cameras for his home, and figured that for the price he can always flip it if it's not what he wants.

You're correct about the shipping. I ordered those 1600 ct sheets almost two weeks ago and still haven't received a tracking number, even after two emails to DailySteals.

vmaxnc, I dont think they send you emails when the ship. What I do is go to the Daily Steals website, log in to my account, look up my orders and click on the order I'm wondering about. I can see if it's been shipped and can find the tracking number there.

I agree they should be responding to you. I dont recall if I've ever had to contact them. Every deal site that I have had to contact, though, has always replied to me fairly quickly.

Thanks for that and the DM. I've noticed, as have a couple buddies with whom I've discussed it, that the overall process of mail order has slowed down. Even peer-to-peer such as ebay is taking longer.

Yes, the mail service has slowed down. They've closed down many post offices and many more sorting centers. I've recently had many eBay packages that originated on one coast go to the other coast before coming to me.

But at least if you check your order status on Daily Steals, and any other deal site, you'll know if/when it was shipped. I ordered some 3-D coloring books from Daily Steals on February 01 and checked my account yesterday to get the UPS MPI tracking number.
