Well it's better than a green "delivered" notification and not knowing who recieved the watch!

Haha, my ap was stuck in Ontario for the weekend and they wouldn't allow me to pick it up even though I'm only 25 min away. Congrats by the way and can't wait to see what you got!

If I remember correctly you have a few pieces being shipped out for this incoming. So I'm thinking this is a biggie whatever it is....

Still no package, took the day off work and been waiting for 5 hours. Pretty upset with Fedex right now. Saw the first delivery exception note at 10am and called customer service right away to find out what's going on, they couldn't tell. So I asked them to redeliver it and gave my phone number was told the driver would call me if he's having issues again. 40 min. later another delivery exception note...WTF!!
Finally found the number to local station and spoke with someone, she's thinking because I live in a gated community that's why the driver couldn't get in. That should be no excuse, I see Fedex/UPS trucks inside all the time all they have to do is wait for couple minutes and follow the cars in. So if the gate is closed, they don't deliver? There is a reason why people pay for priority delivery. Now just waiting for the lady to call me back, she sent another note to the driver to find out when he's able to come back again so I can be at the gate.

Better than USPS expedited - the tracking is horrible, usually doesn't hit the website until it's already been delivered.

I'm getting seriously cranky

Congrats. That's hugely frustrating. This same exact use case has happened to me a dozen times. Until I started having stuff shipped to work.

This is it

Finally got delivered to me just before 4pm, pretty much wasted my whole day as I had other plans. But here it is.

Omigod, that's beautiful.

I have to get a gold piece. Somehow, someway. I have will...
