With that price I imagine it's freight. Thursday is probably a dedicated truck and Friday-Wednesday is probably on one with several other orders.

If this is some piece of equipment that's replacing a broken one the $700 is probably worth it when the lack of this is possibly costing you thousands of dollars each day that you don't have it, or even worse losing a customer, especially if it doesn't get there 'till Wednesday, since installation could take a couple and then you're out a whole other week.
