Is this a confirmation email from VS or USPS? If it is from VS that would be new, I've never heard of that before.

Definitely if possible send it earlier rather then later, most years it seems to take a month or a little longer if they receive the reel after New Years. I bet that's approximately the time most NY and NJ reels start pouring in to the factory...

My delivery confirmation was from USPS.
I recently sent an email to VS via their website and inquired about my reel, they responded the same day indicating that it should ship to me the week of the 27th. If it does, that will be 6 weeks.

That's what I figured, it was just a little tough to tell from the posts where confirmation was coming from.
