| I ordered a scope from opticsplanet and it qualified for the free shipping. Apparently their free shipping is with Fedex Dumbpost. I ordered it on the 21st and it shipped the 22nd. It made it within 2 hours of my house and just quit moving. This was on the 23rd. It said it departed that location on the 23rd but it's never made it anywhere. I called Fedex and they said USPS had it, I called USPS and they said it would have been here by now if they had it. I called Fedex AGAIN and they said that it was still in Fedex possession but they didn't know where it was. It was supposed to be delivered last Thursday. This is really aggravating especially since it was $200 and I'm ready to shoot my gun. Anybody had similar problems like this with opticsplanet or Fedex? I guess it's not technically opticsplanet's fault but I wish I would have known, I would have just paid for better shipping ugh. |
| I had a similar situation last week with UPS/post office. It was at my local post office, the vendor had damaged the shipping lable when they sealed the package, and the final delivery address was not readable. The UPS barcoding system got it to the post office, but from there, they didn't know where to deliver it. When they found it for me, it was in the pile of undeliverables being sent back to their points of origin. |

Fedex Smartpost routing involves throwing it on the next truck to somewhere as long as it leaves the warehouse. I had a package take 10 days to go from Texas to Wisconsin to Florida back to Kentucky and then finally to Michigan and yes it showed up on the day the tracking originally showed.
But seriously once it hits the USPS system its delivery confirmation only tracking so don't expect real time updates of it's location until 24 hrs after you have it. If it doesn't show on Wednesday call optics planet and have them start a claim. |
