yeah that’s my favorite one. when they delivered my Buchla Easel it was at the local sorting facility two days early and I got all giddy to get it. then the tracking updated to something like “delivery not due” and it sat there for two days.
when I shipped a Jupiter 4 last fall, I did it all online and dropped it off at FedEx Office. when the driver picked it up, he used the wrong code (or something) and it was marked as delivered. of course, the buyer and I both start freaking out. the thing was basically lost, and un-trackable from our end. fortunately FedEx customer service was great (I think because of the insured value) and they helped figure out what went wrong, issued a new label, tracking data, etc.
generally during the pandemic all three have been pretty good. I like that FedEx will pick up shipments from my front porch for free. UPS charges $11 for this. USPS it depends on your carrier; they are supposed to pick it up, but some don’t (ours doesn’t). and these days the overnight drop off for packages is completely full. for signature required stuff, all three have done just a “gotta verify you’re here, I’ll sign for you” which is fine by me. though FedEx did make me physically sign once.
