On day one you put your game in the mail box and it's picked up by your mail carrier and sorted at the post office. That night, it is shipped out. On Day two it arrives at Gamefly's local post office, where it is sorted and sent out to Gamefly.
Now, this is where it gets tricky. Gamefly is a huge national chain. They receive hundreds, if not thousands of returns each day. So with all those games coming in, even though they receive your game on day two, it doesn't get processed until day three.
That same day the game you have next on your queue is chosen to go. But maybe there are no copies available? They have to wait until one comes in. Day four your new game is processed, and sent to the shipping department.
Day five they bring it to their local post office, and it's shipped out to you. And on day six you receive it.
...Or something.
