That was my assumption, too. If an item is in stock, I expect it to ship within a day or two, especially if I am not ordering any other items along with it.
However, I was sometimes finding that my orders were not shipping until almost a week after I had placed them even though the items continued to be listed as "In Stock".
So, I canceled a few orders when they didn't ship out in a reasonable amount of time after having placed the order... Then, miraculously, or perhaps coincidentally, my orders started arriving in a more timely fashion. Received an item via free shipping just yesterday even though I had only placed the order on Monday evening and even though the estimated delivery date was not until next week.
