Has anyone stateside used this option? I've never heard of TNT before, but the prices seemed right and Nova said it would be 1-2 business days, so I took a gamble.

Was this a good choice, a bad choice or did I just overpay for normal shipping?

Ordered Alpha 85 Last Thursday Night. Item shipped TNT friday. Had it lunch time Monday. I would highly recommend both Nova Lasers and TNT.

PS I am in North Texas. Hope this eases your mind.

I ordered 2 lasers from nova....

First , My X-105 arrived Via TNT Shipping 23 HOURS from the time I hit "SUBMIT" on the order page!

Second, My Alpha 125 Arrived @22 Hours from when I hit "Submit".

I live in Oklahoma City.

How TNT can do that fast a service for 25-28 bucks..I'll never know!!!!!

Try FedEx and see how much it costs!!!!

I believe TNT buys up any remaining space on cargo flights..so they get really good rates (Better than the plane flying half full).

It may arrive in the hands of a FedEx driver, or a UPS Driver...it all depends on where they find capacity on a plane heading your way!

Sucks that I ordered it on Friday! Now an 'overnight' shipment will take 3-4 days to get here! Dang holidays... lol

i ordered an x-150 on Thursday. I was sitting there trying to decide whether or not I want the TNT.
I live in Canada, so it should get here relatively fast without it since nova is in Canada too.
It was tempting tho, since TNT is only $15.99 for Canadians. In the end my asian genes took over and I went with the free shipping.

I ordered my X175 and had it shipped over TNT. Good thing, too, because TNT shipping is free for any purchases over $500.

Anyways, I ordered the thing on Friday evening. NOVAlasers sent the package out on Tuesday, and the package got to my doorstep on Thursday afternoon. Funny thing, though, since the package was delivered to me by UPS. They didn't give me tracking numbers or anything when they shipped it, however.

I ended up ordering my x50 on Saturday afternoon, and it got here on Tuesday afternoon. I was impressed as hell!

Man I just got a bill from UPS for $6 for brokerage fee,etc. I wish Nova would have told me about that. I thought paying $25ish was enough, now another $6?
