    Fedex... too cool

    Tracking an overnight package from Fedex on their website is just too cool..I had one come from Ohio to Palm Springs, CA. in 16 hours....It was almost like my package was their only one. I have one coming via 2-day right now...Its on the delivery truck headed for my door (by 4:30pst)

    I like the UPS channel myself, but I like the spring lineup that fed ex is showing.
    Merry Christmas

    A friend of mine asked FedEx to take her passport from germany (I think) to sweden. FedEx said it would take 48 hours max. A week later it still hadn't arrived.

    She had to cancel her trip to singapore whre she was going to attend a big seminar on economics. Cost LOADS of money. I think she got compensation, but I'm not sure.

    I don't trust FedEx ever since I saw Castaway. Plus I don't want Tom Hanks touching my stuff.
    My evil laugh has a squeak in it.

    FedEx is expensive. I had shipped a Sony minidisc player through it to India and they charged me $100 in shipping with freight charges. After that that, they send me another $50 invoice for custom clearance

    so i paid $150 to ship a bloody $200 player!

    I prefer UPS as well ...

    What do you expect from FEDEX, take your package to india within couple of days for what ? 10-20 bucks ?? They do not care whether it had 200 $ item, its the weight that matters.
