Depending on the vendor, a product may take more or less time to obtain. Often, this can make a difference when you are putting together a time-sensitive purchase quotation. A product may be cheaper, but if the delay is too long and puts the delivery time in jeopardy, you may need to buy the product at a higher price from another vendor who can deliver the product faster.

For our example, we have set the delivery time to 4 days.
