You should add USPS in the poll, even though it's not offered by NewEgg. This thread is becoming one about shipping couriers, not NewEgg.

Which one is the best out of those three? :confused:

fedex from newegg gets me my packages in one day, no matter where they ship it from. I love getting my packages early so fedex for me!

doesn't matter for me. the order will come the same day since i'm less than an hour away from newegg. i wish i can just pick the stuff up myself. :(

mwave lets me pick it up but they tack on a $5 service charge :confused:

Fedex forever. I won't use UPS unless there is a signinficant price diff, or Fedex is not offered (USPS is way worse, and DHL is crappy beyond measure).

I order the cheap Fedex service that used to be free with everything. Being in LA, if I'd order something before 12, I'd get it the following day at around 5 PM. Just can't beat that...

Newegg ships a lot of stuff out of New Jersey now. They are going to hell in a hand basket

They've always had 3 (maybe more) warehouses, including one in New Jersey. They've only recently started offering UPS shipping, and they are getting much more CompUSA as they've gained quite a lot more attention than in the days I used to order from them.

Not UPS, because I don't like my packages showing up 2-3 days late looking like they've been dropped on my doorstep straight out of the airplane.

Amen.

Depends what I'm getting, how fast I want it here, and how much it's going to cost me. 99% of the time I use FedEx but I recall using UPS maybe...once or twice. FedEx is faster for me, by far...and Fedex's service is better than UPS ten-fold.

Not sure what arcenite is talking about though. I've ordered from a good number of places, and out of all of them...newegg has the best selection, best prices, fastest shipping...love newegg :)

I use both--basically what ever is cheaper.
As far as damages done by shipping: never had any because newegg and ZZF both know how to package their products (IMO newegg's packages are more secure though).
Never had a package come late in fact either its ontime or a day early. The only difference that i see is UPS delievers before noon and FedEx delievers after 3pm.

EDITED:
should have an option in the pole: Doesn't matter what ever is cheaper

FedEx no contest...
When I was little the UPS guy ran over my dog, damn dog killers.

But it's hard to say, b/c as stated by many others, I don't know anymore, thusly I don't newegg anymore
ZZF, mwave, compgeeks, and pricegrabber
