Is this regular for Newegg shipping?

[Budz42]

Last week on Friday I ordered an SSD from newegg and chose the free 4-7 day shipping option. Well, it's now the next Friday, 5 business days later, and my SSD seems to be moving in the wrong direction. According to my tracking number, it started in Nebraska and started moving east through Iowa, Ohio, New Jersey and is now in Pennsylvania. Thing is, I live in California - the opposite direction. I may be in no rush to get the SSD, but spending 5 of those 7 days going in the wrong direction is just bizarre to me. Last time I made an order that was somewhere in the middle of the states, it made its way to CA right quick with the same shipping plan. Is this normal behavior for Newegg shipping? Or should I be concerned?

Sometimes the seller will give you the wrong tracking number. And the tracking you're seeing if from their manufacturer moving goods towards their warehouse then it will be shipped to you. You can go to Newegg website or call them and make an inquiry.
