I hate that. It doesn't always happen. Sometimes I get my stuff from Newegg in 2 days even though I'm in Missouri.


NO, it means it is still in a crat that has several other hundred packages that have not been unloaded yet.

I USE to think the same thing. So I printed it out and went down to Fed-Ex. They were nice and said it would have been delivered but the container was not unloaded.

If you want it faster, pay for the next day. If not shut up.

You are blaming FedEx for not delivering on Saturday or this Labor Day ?
Nobody deliver anything this Monday and Saturday delivery is extra.

And they can't unload it??? I've seen my packages arrive at this "not due for delivery" location at 5:30am, which is only 45 minutes from my house. That's plenty of time for them to unload a crate and deliver a package. They could deliver it if they wanted, and they sometimes do. But since I'm not paying for quicker shipping, they don't have to work harder. I understand what you're saying, but they COULD unload it. They don't though.

Yes they could but lately they usually don't. People have gotten used to choosing 3-day delivery and items getting there in 2 which was cutting into their revenue. Now they hold the package until the due date more often than not.
