so, that last order never made it and i used the rock for mounting other frags. ha
well.. UPS refunded the shipping costs and part of the cost for the zoanthids, and i was supposed to recieve some different ones today.
this time thru fedex AND they decide to skip my delivery and post it as "wrong address".. came home from work, started tracking the package on their site.. blah blah, and it says "wrong address, left at facility".. try calling fedex... 1-800 number.. blah, waste of 30 mins.. i have no idea where my package is.. there's only 1 fedex station i see, other than stupid "FEDEX KINKOS"
drive all the way out there.. to hear... "nope, i dono where they would take it.... there's another fedex place on other side of town"
drive across town, and YES, its there.... "well, you're address is correct, i dono why they didnt deliver it.. " BLAH. give me my package!

Between the many screw-ups of FedEx and UPS, most of us have decided to call them Fed UP. The big problem is that their last remaining serious competition, DHL, is far worse than both combined.

Nice! Next time you or someone orders, let me know I might like to split that wonderful shipping cost with you.
