Yeah, that happens sometimes when they don't scan it at the post office you drop it off at. It's happened to me a couple of times and everything turned out OK.

Thanks for the reassurance.It was important to me.I will try to hang tight then.I am so much happier with the ups service though.

In case anyone was wondering,or have the same problem,It did get delivered in fashionable time.Must not have been scanned at first.
BUT NOW,I'm having problem's with the da*n UPS delivery.It's supposedly been out for delivery since the 24th.Why the hell wouldn't it get delivered?It was international express.High dollar delivery and should have made it.....WTF.....I've called ups and checked source.....the address is right ??????Anyone with heads up on that deal?

re: USPS. I had someone send a shipment and it never showed in their system even after I had it in my hands. So with USPS don't count on it being scanned like the other major carriers.

Yea, I have used express many times. I live in an apartment and they will accept and sign for pkgs in the office, then I sign and accept when I get home, so I don't have to be there. You could also have the signature waived and won't have to worry about this. Express is usually FAST tho!

th1rty6 - thats a great set up, having the front office sign for it. On a side note - for those carriers that require a signature, you can leave a note on the door stating you accept the package. They will take the note for their files or indicate a note was on the door and leave the package. It works well.

Does that work for express packages shipped internationally also, does anyone know?

it should, as long as you are releasing them from all liability if they leave the package at your doorstep, etc. That's their main concern. If you know who the carrier is, I would give them a call.

at least they take care of each other...like we do. Hey when a package is shipped should they put a breakable sticker on it or fragile so they wont go messing with it..or write on the outside of the box like "i love you" or some shit. as not to arouse suspicion? just wondering what you guys think?,

imo, the least amount of stickers or other attention grabbing things on it the better.

LMAO I just got a package from a friend, it says "I miss you love!" and has smiley faces on it . The ups guy said he thought it was cute..LOL I guess it works pretty well so much for attention grabbing..But then again i guess ups doesnt give a shit!
