Ugh! Fed EX!!
I ordered from a company from Chattanooga, and I send a M O last TUES. for Fed EX to come to WI and FED EX put into a Smartpost system, They estimate to be here by next Sat!!! I sent a Package from my store to Hawaii it got there in 3 Days just regular standard mail cost $5.65 I paid 14 bucks to have my order sent to me. So this Smart Post isn't what it's cracked up to be and they say it's faster!

Re: Ugh! Fed EX!!
For some time now, Smart Post packages coming to my house have been delivered almost exclusively by FedEx themselves. That's not something I lose much sleep over. I have bigger issues with FedEx, notably packages that look like they were marched over by Sherman's army and their drivers not following simple instructions.LDF Knives wrote: ↑Sun Jul 18, 2021 4:12 am This Smart Post isn't what it's cracked up to be and they say it's faster!

When it works as it should (like it always used to before Louis De-killJoy took over and started messing with it), USPS is the best deal going. However, I've had to switch to using only the Priority Flat Rate Small Boxes because they seem to have a much higher on-time arrival rate than First Class. (Such a shame, too, since I just recently purchased a shipload of small boxes from ULINE that I was going to use for First Class shipping
