what kind of system is that? You either get it in the mail here or you have to pick it up at a post office/food store (as long as its got a zipcode)

here if u have a delivery and nobody home postman drops the package to your nearest neighbour and a note to u where he droped the package, plus he saves notice of where package was droped if anything goes sideways, if none of your neighbour's present he delivers the package to nearest post office and leaves u a note where to pick it up
or they call u and ask u when u gonna be home so they can deliver at that specific time, all depends on the value of the delivery

how usps works is they only try to deliver your package once for UPS and FEDEX, they offer 3 tries to deliver the package

mail man only leaves you notice if the package had required signature, but it costs additional money, I think its about 1.50$

so most senders dont do required signature...should have insured that package for that dollar or whatever but I have never something like this happened, dude usually rings and my dad picks up the package...ugh!

I had UPS do something similar - payed for overnight shipping. Apparently the dumb cocksuckers delivered it to my neighbors house (after claiming to have left it on my door). Thankfully the neighbor brought it over 3 days later. Neither UPS or Gamestop would refund my overnight shipping fee.

Morale of the story? Go Fedex or don't bother.

dudes, if it is not your signature, sue them. Easy as pie.

You order, and you have to sign. They 'log' the signature even online. Just use that to get it back...

Like I said, most sellers don't include option require signature since it costs extra money...they only do option delivery confirmation just in case I would do charge back...I can say that package have never been delivered but they can provide tracking number saying that it has been delivered

so here comes usps, leaving the package at the door and marking is at delivered

Exactly, fuck UPS.

FedEX or Purilator is the way to go. Whenever I have something shipped either to me or from me, I use FedEX or Purilator. FedEX is slightly better because they have 1 day delivery but Purilator is really good to...longest I've had to wait on Purilator is 2 days.

They're not talking about UPS, although I agree, UPS is also a piece of shit. I don't find Canada Post's ExpressPost service to be that bad, and much cheaper than FedEx.

I have not had any problems with UPS so far..been using free 3 day UPS shipping from newegg and I like it, package was never lost or damaged

If newegg would bring down the cost with fedex or make it free...I would be all over it..I would not want to pay shipping 50$ for case with fedex while I can get it for free with UPS...but then again FREE is FREE...you get what you paid for

and yea I was talking about USPS...

Doors have this little rectangular box that mailman puts mail through but package must have been too big and left it near the door, many times I see mail is just stuck in that rectangular box in the doors..half being inside and half being outside

Oh, I misread. I thought he said UPS.

Yeah, the Canadian Postal Service isn't all that bad. But if it's something I really want (like the gpu i bought in Nov/Dec) I use FedEx or if they don't offer FedEx, Purilator (which I had to use). Had to pay a few extra bucks for 1 day delivery but I wanted it badly so it's worth it. And I rarely get stuff in the mail.
Or when I send things to other parts Canada or to the US to family members (T-Shirts or other such trinkets) I use FedEx as it takes 1 day to get there. You pay a bit more but it beats waiting 5 or more days you know?
I hate waiting for things.

Take Wonderland, I always go (if I go) in the middle of the week or on a rainy day as the lines aren't long or there are no lines.
One time my ex-wife wanted to go to Wonderland on Canada Day and we stood in line for the Vortex for 2 fucking hours dude....thats unbearable man. All for a 40 second ride....naw.

You go to Wonderland on holidays or nice hot, sunny days or on weekends when everyone and their mother is there or do you go when no one is there like me?
