That's impossible, I GOT mine today!!!
I guess UPS finally invented the Transporter! :-)

Same thing happened when I ordered wire from McAster Carr a few months ago.
I ordered it online at 1:00AM and it was at my door at 2:00PM that same day,
and I had it shipped Ground. Now that's downright scary!

The toroid came in great shape. My only beef is that since I paid so much
for this thing they could have at least put a dimple in the center where I
would want to drill a hole. I ended up cutting a 12" diameter circle of
newspaper and folding it into quarters and then centering it very carefully
before punching where the folds intersect. This thing is so heavy that I
wouldn't want it to hang lopsided. Well, I lucked out and it is balanced, so
I guess I'm in good shape.

Thank you for orchestrating the bulk buy for us.
