.josh Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 Wouldn't mind. Last time I bought next day delivery with them, it was actually a next week... and I bet they charged you for next day anyway, didn't they.

Mchl Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 This they did sir, this they did. Well, ok. It was this Express Saver service, which says 'next day, or the one after that'. No problem. But what infuriated me, was that tracking site said, the delivery guy was at my place on the 'next day', and there was no one at home. Guess what, I was ther all the time, as I awws having a cold. And then there was a weekend, and some holidays... So the day after 'next day' was a week later...

corbin Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 I got a letter that looked like it had been through an industrial paper shredder once. It was awesome. (I think it might have actually been USPS, but on the subject of crappy mail service...) It came in this fancy little envelope with all the pieces in it like, "We're sorry we jacked up your mail. Here it is. Oops." Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/123744-large-hadron-collider/page/2/#findComment-642291 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here it is. Oops." Yeah and what's even funnier is how they have the balls to offer "insurance" for in case shit like that happens. I'm just like wtf... shouldn't that sort of thing be like, you know, standard?

corbin Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 So wait, with this insurance... How the hell does that work? They like, pay you if it messes up? Or they handle it more carefully? If they handle it more carefully, that's messed up.

.josh Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 well, they pay you X amount of money (depending on what "insurance package" you buy). But I kind of have to assume that since they don't really want to be handing out money, they probably will handle it more carefully, because if you don't have insurance, it's not like they lose anything.
