Default UPS holiday slow down

Boy.......UPS is sure getting sloppy. That case I bought on the 21st was scanned out of California on the 21st and it took 6 days to get to Illinois. I am in Ohio and they claim it will be another 3 days before it gets here.

Way to screw us over the holidays UPS!!

Watch it now... I work for UPS. Though I would never ship anything with us. I always go with Fedex. They take better care of the packages. Too many UPS employees, other than myself of course, don't realize that sometimes their are fragile items in the boxes. Like motherboards, $100 computer cases, or graphics cards. If you ever have computer parts shipped to you the extra cost for fedex is well worth it. The last case that I ordered from Newegg I had shipped with UPS because of the time and cost. I had to next day it and I didnt have the extra 60 bucks to next day it with fedex. When I got the case the box was all dinged up and I thought for sure that it was going to be messed up. So yea, UPS sucks but dun tell my supervisor I said that. lol.

I use nothing but FedEx. They treat my packages with as much care and tenderness as I treat my penguins.
