Do you mind sharing whether or not you included a transaction fee in that transfer? I tried to clear out an old wallet, with very little in it (.003BTC), so I used the minimum transaction fee, and the mining network has not picked it up in 2 weeks. I fear that I may have orphan'd those units. Right now it is not that much, but a year from now that 3mBTC might be worth hundreds of dollars.

In the future, I recommend to anyone wanting to do the same as I did, to just extract the Private key out of the wallet you wish to close and import it into the new wallet that you wish to have the funds in. It looks like my sending this small amount to an online exchange is not going to work out.
Yeah instead of using exchanges I typically just transfer them into a wallet because once it is in the blockchain it's done so you can encrypt your password and make your backup wallet file and be good to go.
Yeah if bitpay says to send say 0.002 bitcoins and bittrex fee was 0.001 bitcoins then I'd send 0.003 bitcoins.
I can tell you that I thought bittrex fee was still 0.0002 like it used to be so I sent some transactions of with only a 0.0002 fee added and they eventually showed up on my bitpay they just took longer.
I've spoken to Poloniex before through their help department to see what happened to funds. They've usually responded as there shouldn't be anything hanging out there for 2 weeks like that.
