unfortunately the shipping line [Matson Navigation] is not owned by Vip and therefore we have no control of the ship. Matson ships on a first come first serve, there is no guaranty of shipping time, As far as VIP making a lot of money this is not the customers business, and for there information we make approximately $150-200 on an order such as this. I guess people think your rude if they dont hear what they want to hear.
