Actually it WAS drop shipped from Portland.  We've been working on streamlining the dropship process, so that items that are stocked by our suppliers can go directly from the warehouse closest to the customer. It's win/win - the customer gets it faster and we don't have to pack the order.  Of some items have to ship from us in PA because no U.S. distributors have them (either at all, or in the same quality as what we stock). Glad it worked out, and thanks for the kudos!
