Let's here it for FedEx

The comment from a poster in another forum.

"That was a 1966 D-18 until FedEX ran a Truck or forklift over it. There were treadmarks on the box.

Didn't seem very funny to me!"



Sorry, I was compelled to post it.

I bet those people on CSI could put that back together with a little wood glue!
Seriously though,
Sorry to hear you don't like your SX.
I've heard alot of good about them.

Probably right, the guy didn't complain about late arrival.

yeah but he should have gotten a partial refund, because it was obviously somewhat lighter upon arrival than it was when it was orignally shipped...

Why lighter?
Didn't lose mass... just structure.
 
The hole looked like it went all the way through the case, and by extension, I figured the box as well.

But, mainly because it just seemed funnier that way.

In September she'll finally be old enough to get her own driver's license. Thank God. I'm getting really tired of luggin' her butt all over town. It's always "Shiner, take me to the mall", or "Shiner, I'm going to be late for school". Geeez.:whatever:

At least you're not in Georgia, 'cause it's more like, "Cuzin' Shiner, take me to the jail to see Maw.", etc., etc.

Ah, the sweet twang of banjo music.... :whatever: :crazyguy:

Just watch out for that danged old train. :D

:rotflmao: :rotflmao: good one, Ron!
 
Well, here's a good illustration of the differences in the shipping speed of UPS vs. FedEx...

I ordered an SX SST 57 mahagony w/P-90's from Rondo on Wednesday morning of this week. The tracking information from UPS says that estimated delivery is next Tuesday. OK, that's six days, not bad, I thought. That's right on the date that I thought it would arrive.

When I was browsing through the Rondo site yesterday afternoon (Thursday), I noticed an SX dual humbucker tortoise shell pickguard there. Since I had planned to try a set of humbucking pickups in this guitar along with the P-90's, I ordered it.

Well, the estimated delivery date for the pickguard from FedEx is the same day as the UPS order placed the day before and in the morning. So, it looks like I'll be getting both pieces at the same time...which is both good and bad in a way, I guess...:confused:

Just saw this post. Of course you're right Ron. There's always something to be thankful for.:D
 
To add to the shipping conversation, our company receives alot of packages from different carriers, but the thing that I ALWAYS notice with UPS delivered packages is that tape dont match! Everything always appears to have been opened at some point in time and then re-taped closed...usually with obviously different tape. Not that anything is ever missing...just still makes me uneasy.
