How long can I expect to wait if I order 2 custom playmats from InkedPlaymats.com? I know it should take some time for them to make the mats, so how long should I expect?
-Thanks!

Moved to Economics because it's about a store/company.

Also, I can't get the template to work on windows 8, can anybody help? Either reformat 2 images for me to work on the mat, or just explain how to do it on windows 8?

It's on the FAQ of their site.
"We strive to ship your mat within 3 business days. Orders with custom editing can take up to 4 days. Sometimes there are delays. Because we deal with custom orders, printing can take longer if there are many orders placed on the same day.
Dice bags can take up to 14 days to ship. These are individually hand sewn off site; so we appreciate your patience with this.
Bulk orders take longer depending on the amount. Our 25 mat bulk order special can take between 1 and 2 weeks before it is shipped. If you need your mats for a certain date, make sure that you compensate for this wait and allow the week that it takes for your shipment to arrive. Also, if you need the mats by a certain date, please let us know in the special instructions section of the upload form.
Sleeves take about ten business days to ship."
Add appropriate time for shipping and you have the entire time from order to recieving.(usually 5-7 business days is what companies say for CONUS delivery)

That too is on their website, there is a video that shows how to format the images. You are going to need a photo editing program like Photoshop (if you have it), or GiMP (open source and works for most people's purposes).

I figured it out. Windows 8 is weird, it was a friend's computer. And according to that information, you think if I bought it a few hours ago with 2 day shipping that it would be here by Saturday?

doubt it, according to what Gidgetimer copied from their site, they strive to ship within 3 business days. That means if you order it Wednesday night, they won't even see your order till Thursday and then it'll take about 3 business days before it's ready to be shipped add another 2 days, for 2-day shipping, and the earliest your mat could be shipped out on is Monday and if it is then it will most likely arrive on Wednesday

Well 2 day shipping usually means they overnight it the next day. So it may be. Although I'm not sure I want to know how much extra you paid to get it 5 days early.

I've ordered from them before and they are pretty standard. Doesn't take them much longer, really.
