They come from different parts of the warehouse so that is probably why they are shipping out of sequence. Next time you call HO and they say the wait is 3 hrs would you like to have them call you....stay on the line. I've done that 3 times in the last month (waits ranged from 1.5 hours to 3.5 hours) EACH time I stayed on the line (put the phone on speaker and went about my business) and they picked up in less than 5 minutes!!!

That does sound frustrating. It's understandable to expect both orders to be shipped at the same time, especially if they were placed so close together. Have you had any updates from HQ yet? It's always a good idea to follow up and make sure they are aware of the delay and working to resolve it. Hopefully, they can provide a solution for you soon.
