Saturday delivery may be a problem. If any online seller uses FedEx it should be available for a price. I'm cheap so I use "free" shipping whenever possible and it gets here when it gets here. I've left a note for UPS to hold packages at the customer counter, typically when a signature is required, but that means I have to leave work and drive a 30 mile round trip to get the package.

This is a big change from the other thread where you mentioned buying locally. Did one of the hobby shops do something to turn you away?

I think if timing is a factor you should call Mike's, Advantage, and Roy's to see who has what in stock and go from there.
