Mine is with Fedex, every time something gets shipped to me through Fedex unless someone is standing in the middle of the driveway to stop them and ask who is it for, they just leave the package anywhere! To freaking lazy to knock on a door or what? The last time the left it at the nabiors house, not so bad you mite be thinking? Guess what, my address is 2434, the nabiors is 2436, easy mistake you mite be thinking? When you drive up our driveway it comes to a turn off, theres a sign there clearly stateing <2436>, HOW FREAKING HARD IS THAT TO FOLLOW!!! MAN I'M PISSED OFF ABOUT IT TO!!! Whats your shipping nightmare? We all got one! I can't wait to hear about it.

P.S.-I have more of them, to many to type up.

Site filter wont let me type address out beside each other??

Sign says <2436>

Heh heh...

UPS allows me to leave instructions for the driver on leaving the package places. I always just tell him to throw it anywhere it won't get rained on.

He also puts up with the branches hanging down from our oak tree over the driveway. I REALLY gotta cut those...

I got my package today, found it shoved in my mailbox! 2 tenths of a mile away from my front door where they claimed to leave it. I swear, three times someone sent stuff to me by Fedex, they got it wrong all 3 times! You know what they say-3 strikes and your out!

I once found a package hidden under some prickly bushes in fron of my house. I had to reach in there and grab it. Next time I'll tell them to just toss it in a window and make my life easier.

Out street is split in two and sort of offset, the delivery guys always go to the other part of the street because they are to imcopitant to read a map.

lol Benny that is exactly why I am not allowed to buy anything off ebay. That is funny lol you reallyu have to pay attention to that stuff. All the time they sell stuff for $1 with $300 shipping.

Back on topic. That is weird because we never have a problem with any shipping services, it's usually the mailman that gets stuff messed up
