I placed an order with CSUSA tat 12:50 this afternoon (EDT). I got an e-mail from FedEx at 7:50 EDT tonight advising that they had picked up the shipment.

I'd say that's pretty good.

Fortunately, everything I ordered was in stock. The CSUSA 'shopping cart' tells you the stock status of the things you are interested in so that if something isn't in stock, you can make an immediate decision whether to proceed with the order.
 
Same day shipping for all orders I've placed with CSUSA before noon central time (IIRC, they advertise same day shipping for a later moutain time but I forget what that time is). In my experience, USPS from CSUSA gets to me faster than Fed-X ground (assuming you're not using a CSUSA free ground shipping discount code - USPS option doesn't qualify for this - DAMHIKT!).
 
Timing

Maybe timing has something to do with it. I know that if I get orders by about 11:30am or so they always ship same day, 12:30pm might beat the mail pickup. After 1pm it will be next day unless they mail pickup is unusually late. On very rare occasions I have had folks order one morning and get the package in the next days mail.

PSI will ship same day if you phone the order in, and mention you need it quickly....if you make it on line they're not as reliable.
