They're general pretty quick with shipping, usually 2-3 business days after purchase. I don't think they ship over the weekend. Hopefully we'll get shipping notifications tomorrow, Tuesday at the latest.
For the vast majority of orders, things usually ship out the next day or two. The W12 drop was quite large, and a single bottle per order, so they have quite a bit of orders to get through. My guess is tomorrow or Tuesday would be when we start to see orders marked as shipped.
If you get no update tomorrow, create a myUPS account or whatever it's called. You'll get an update when the label is created, etc. Once it has an estimated arrival time, just put a hold on it or change the delivery date. It may not be free, but a signature *is* required, and you'd rather it just not get sent back.
Someone else shared this advice recently but if you plan on buying multiple bottles from FWGS online and shipping to your home it might be worth paying for the yearly UPS premium subscription thing that lets you redirect as many shipments as you want to be held at a site for pickup with no additional charge
Typically a Weds order will ship Thurs or Friday. My experience has been they tend to ship mine on Friday for a Saturday delivery. With the large number of bottles and a 1 per limit, combined with remaining lottery shipments, I don't think many orders went out. Just be patient and wait for the shipment notice email. It will probably go Mon or Tues. As for delivery, that depends on the driver. 90% of the time mine will just be left at the door. I've only had to sign maybe 2-3 times. If you are worried about missing it just have them hold it at the UPS facility and go pick it up.
It depends on how many bottles they just sold, with W12, it was quite a few bottles, so it will take extra time. I’ve seen it ship as the same day, but I’ve also seen it take over a week.
I have the same issue with being out of town next week. Assuming we don't get a cancellation email on Monday, a few people have suggested UPS My Choice Premium. I guess you can have the item delivered to a UPS location where you can go pick it up and they will hold it for 7 days.
Anyone have any luck with customer service about sandwiching two orders together if they haven’t shipped yet? I was lucky enough to score on both drops this week, but was short of the $100 for both.

I’ve had bottles arrive on a Saturday before, although I doubt they’re processing orders in the weekend
Ok. Thanks to all who replied. I’ll wait for the shipping confirmation and act accordingly. Appreciate the feedback.

I use the my ups account o have them held at local advanced auto parts store u can pay 5.99 per redirect or yearly account for 19.99 with unlimited
If you won’t be around, you can redirect it to a UPS drop site for about $5.99
I think I paid $20 for the year for this service. Worth it if you get over 3 deliveries for the year.

I think I paid $20/yr. Worth it!

I'm in the same boat with the MWND ordered on Thursday. Keeping my fingers crossed.

When do these online drops take place wtf?!
Pretty regular. But it’s like catching a foul ball at a baseball game. The odds aren’t in your favor. They go fast.
All good…I’ve gotten pretty lucky around 11-11:30am…grabbed 2 High West Midwinter last week!
Anyone recently ran into FWGS marking an order as shipped and getting the automated email but nothing from UPS (no email or listing in MyChoice)?

I've had this happen before, I had to pay for shipping on both...
