UPS doesn't deliver to my house until late in the day. Perfect example: I orderd some shipping boxes from Uline, which were delivered yesterday. To my amazmement, the UPS truck was outside my house at 10am (it's never been there that early, ever) The guy is wrestling a big box off the truck, when he gets it on the ground I see it says Vizio on it. I'm thinking he's just moving it to get to my box....nope he comes to the door and says 'I've got your TV down here'...then looks at his little computer thing and realizes he's at the wrong house! lol. He's trying to give me someone else's TV (not that I would have minded...) He tells me 'I do have a package for you, but it's buried in the truck, I'll have to come back.' (this shocks me...he's here at my house, and yet he can't give me my package??? wtf) So he wrestles the TV back on the truck...I watch as he shoves it around trying to get it to fit back in the truck. I feel sorry for whoever is getting that tv... When does he come back with my package? 6:30 pm. sigh.
So, same boat, not waiting all day for delivery when I live 5 mins away from Gamestop. Plus they use the midnight launches to clean out the back of their store...all posters, display boxes, left over pre order stuff, anything they've got get's brought out and distributed to the crowd, and they bring in a DJ to play music. Plus the sub place next to Gamestop stays open and has handed out coupons in the past for free subs on return visits. So, yeah, lots of fun at the midnight launches here. Can't wait for the 19th![/QUOTE]
If you want anything fast from UPS, you need to get it shipped UPS business, and not UPS residential.
Business deliveries are always first in the day, residential deliveries are based on proximity to the distribution warehouse.
