A method and system are presented for analyzing delivery options available to a customer for a product that is available for shipment from multiple fulfillment centers. The present invention receives information from the customer relating to the customer address and the particular product desired. The inventories of the fulfillment centers are queried to see which centers have the product available. Estimated delivery dates are then calculated for each fulfillment center, taking into account the available to ship date, the shipping duration, and the possible delivery options available. The delivery dates and the total cost of the delivered product are compared to the other delivery dates and costs from the other fulfillment centers. A preferred subset of delivery options is then presented to the customer, including the estimated delivery dates.
