Default i figured out why there are so many postal shootings!!

so i sent out my ECU FRIDAY via usps to speed tuning, i sent the package Express and was told it would be delivered saturday by 3:00 giving Oliver enough time to chip it and send it back to me on monday, so i call him today to get a tracking number because my girlfriend said it had not come in yet. When he told me he had just got it in (monday @ 1:00pm)i thought i was going to loose my Fawking head!!!
it's simple math Friday(package shiped)~>Saturday(package delivered before 3:00)~>saturday(package shipped back from speed tuning)~>package delivered WTF?
n e way i learned the hard way never ship usps

Thats strange I always have good luck with usps. If I can't use usps then I'll use ups but I will never use FedEx. I would have expected it to get there on time but since they don't deliver/work on sunday you wouldn't have got it back as fast.

I've always had bad luck with both USPS and UPS. USPS is always waaaaaaaay late, and UPS always manages to break my s***, or leave it on the porch... with my dog.[sm=headbang.gif]I've had pretty good luck with FedEx and DHL though always on time and never broken

USPS isn't a guaranteed next day service when you ship it express. Being in Michigan it should have gotten there on time but sometimes it will be 2 days.

then they should have said that it could take longer, the women looked at her computer and looked at me an said "it will be their on saturday by 3:00pm" if they would have said anything different i would have drove out of my way to the ups and same dayed it

+1 to not using FedEx, but I won't use UPS either. UPS quotes me a week to deliver anything, whether it's going 60 miles or 2500 miles. FedEx sucks too. I use USPS with great success, or DHL as well - DHL seems to ship faster than UPS or FedEx, and it takes less time than either of them. On top of that, they have yet (in my experience) to fail to meet a proposed arrival date, usually getting there a day sooner, and they've never damaged or lost anything of mine. UPS and FedEx can't claim that.

I love UPS and Fedex, I can't stand usps. I think it's just their tracking systems that do it for me.
