[PLUG-TALK] Why does FedEx deliver so slowly?

[TomasK]

I am not sure if this is your problem - In my experience FedEx will not
deliver earlier than what was agreed/paid. If your delivery commitment
was one week - do not expect it sooner. FedEx is not Amazon - has no
stake in your happiness or minimizing shipping/warehousing cost for
you.

I had packages sitting around in Gresham/PDX for days waiting for the
delivery date to arrive.

Uh ... Oh ... FedEx makes more money - if they manage to do return
shipping. So, make sure that you are at home + put signs towards your
home in Hwy and along the way - to give them no opportunity for failed
delivery.

Hope that helps, Tomas
