ARE ALL THE SHIPPING SERVICES FUBAR??

It Seems These Days No Matter Who is Handling a Package They Are Going on Mr Toads Wild Ride Getting Misrouted, Lost, Left in the Stupidest Places on Your Property Whatever! Anybody Else Seeing This! Better Not Count on Last Minute Online Shopping For Christmas This Year Cause it's Not Even The Busy Shipping Time of The Year and Everything is a Mess! Oh and Stuff I Ship on Ebay Does Not Show up on Tracking Till halfway to Destination Using USPS! Not a Confidence Builder For Buyers!

Maybe it's Just IDGAF on Part of The Shipping Employee's!

I Had One The Other Day Which Said Left By The Front Door!

It Was At At The End of The Driveway as Far as it Could Have Been From The Front Door and on the Other Side of a Car To Boot!

If I Had Not Got an Email With a Pic I Never Would Have found It!

How is This For Lazy Packaging! Just Came in the Mail!

Just Slap a Label on Original Bag!

Want To Know Something Really Sad I Used To get Sunvisors From FORD Packaged Just Like This! Yes FORD Corporate! Really Who Were They Hiring! $200.00++ Lighted Mirrored Homelink Sunvisors! Made Me Cringe!

Well Time To Change The Belt on The Riding Lawnmower! The Old One Has STRETCHED and The Slippage Makes it Hard To Cut Anything Thick!

Yeah I was boxing up a driveshaft yesterday and I've read horror stories about them getting destroyed by FedEx and UPS, so I framed out the box to make sure it gets their in 1 piece!

I Had a 72-74 Dodge Challenger Header Panel Some Years Back. Fiberglass and Big. Had To Spend an Afternoon Building a Safe Container. It was a High Dollar NOS Piece and Likely One of One Left At The Time. If Your Selling Stuff Like That You Got To Go The Distance!

Great Job on The Driveshaft!

Oh And it Gets Better. Ebay Said Would Not Give Refund, Then 30 Minutes Later I get a Refund Anyway. Now Today I Check on Seller and He Has Closed The Doors! He Had Misrepresented himself as Being in Los Angeles When All Along it Was a China Drop Ship Fiasco out of New Jersey. Really Hate That!

Saw a FedeX door cam video yesterday of a delivery guy dropping off a package and ringing the door bell. He's taking a picture of his delivery and a porch pirate takes it right in front of him!
