Bitching out some person on the phone who has no control over your package does nothing except antagonize a fellow. Imagine that was you sitting in some crappy cubicle only to have somebody call up and bitch at you... do you think they can make magic happen... and with you bitching do you think they feel good about helping you?

think about the other side of the coin.

Were the shipped by the person you ordered them from on time? I know often I order stuff and people take longer than I expected to box it up and get it out the door.

A tracking number means nothing. I brought tires from discounttiredirect.com and my tracking number sayed that my tire arrived in New Orleans. 6 days went by no tires and tracking info didn't change. I called and UPS sayed that they lost it(but not in those words) to call discounttirediscount.com and talk to them and they shipped 2 new ones. So finally my tires came it today after 2 weeks. Next time i'll try to do fedex.

Joshua you should take your own advice when you are ready to get all violent with someone so quickly...put yourself in their shoes. You and TravASS are the most quick tempered people I know. TravASS seems to have mellowed. I think now he gets pissed and just says "***** it, I think Ill have another beer instead of go to jail"

Great line from "The Departed" when the guy tells Jack Nicholson that "xxx is dying!"
He says "We all are, act accordingly"

So what's the problem? They said they'll be delivered today? The day is far from over. They'll continue their routes until about 7pm. I've had stuff dropped off by UPS at 8pm. Just wait, it'll come.

Believe it or not I'm one of the most neutral people here.... but I don't take kindly to threats.

If you're referring to a sloppy-assed sponsor making obvious veiled threats via pm's about when he sees me next and having me say I'll defend myself... then trying to get Tony to ban me...

It's obvious who was right... I'm still here....if I'm violent there's a reason. A good reason.

The problem is that they shipped out on friday and I payed for 2nd day air which would put it to be delivered to me on Tuesday which was yesterday.The ups web said they were in route yesterday to be delivered on time so I waited until 7pm and no show!!So I paid for 2 day air and i just waisted my money.That is the problem!!!If I wanted it in 3 day's i would not of pissed away the extra buck's!!
