I was frustrated that i
"I was frustrated that i could not find an option for expedited delivery. I would have gladly paid for overnight if it was available. Sometimes my order is last minute. Not your fault but necessary for the trip. Fortunately I was fishing with Barry Beck and he had what I needed."
