Is UPS Basic the same as FedEx Smartpost or DHL? I've read conflicting stuff. Some said UPS Basic service is UPS delivering to the post office and then the post office delivering to you. Some other stuff I read said it was supposed to be an alternative to the post office and UPS delivers it. It also said the difference between UPS Basic and UPS Ground is it's slower and they only make 1 delivery attempt instead of 3.
Has anyone ever had this service? TRU.com shipped 2 TF Generations figures using it. It doesn't have an expected delivery date when you check the tracking so that makes me think they'll hand it over to the post office, which is fine by me. If it's UPS and they only make 1 delivery attempt, then that's going to be annoying. I don't want to have to go pick it up at the UPS facility. UPS never delivers the same time to my house either. They ring the bell, wait a minute, and then leave. |

I know in certain areas the usps sub contracts with fed ex. I am not sure of an affiliation with usps and ups though

I wish they would just drop it, but many times they won't leave and that's the problem.

I guess UPS is going to deliver it. It doesn't say "out for delivery", but it says "destination scan" and it's at the facility here.
Edit: Correction, it has been tendered to the post office. Woo hoo! It will be here tomorrow. Last edited by Fast_Draw; 09-17-2010 at 12:36 PM.. |
