DAMN you UPS!

[GasX]

I decided to get back into biking and bought a used Cannondale R800 off eBay last week. I paid and the seller shipped via UPS. So far so good...

Everyday I log onto the UPS site and track my package and read the sad sad words... "Expected Delivery Date: May 23rd" :|

Since the moment I decided to start looking for bikes I have been jonesing to go for a ride. I had to wait while I did a little research into what bikes I should consider and how much I should pay. I had to wait until I beat all the snipers and won an auction. And now I have to wait for that damn brown truck to go from California to New Jersey. It's going to get worse when my shoes, helmet, gloves and shirt arrive in the mail tomorrow and I have to stare at them while refreshing the tracking info every 5 minutes...

ACK! :Q

Get all the bike gear on and walk around the neighbourhood singing "I'm too sex for bike" and do pelvic thrusts at the ladies saying "look at my package"

why didn't you ship 3-day instead?

how much did you pay for the bike?

I just paid the $50 shipping charge in the auction not realizing it was going to take over a week to get here... :|

A little over $800

That sounds about right for UPS ground charges. Where's the complaint?

cubby - did you read the OP subtitle?

Damn - still shows up as being in CA...

Chances are, on Tuesday morning, I will be dressed in full riding kit standing on the sidewalk mumbling "gimme gimme gimme" to myself until the truck shows up...

Least your bike won't turn up completely trashed like my fiance's nice $800 Widescreen TV did last night :|

UPS is riding your bike to your house.
It will be there in a couple of weeks...
