Not trying to be condescending at all oz, so I hope you don't take it that way . . .just trying to say that the hobby is supposed to be relaxing, so if the shipping takes a few extra days . . . . eh.
If Ccom chose it its obviously saving money, and you can be guaranteed they WILL pass that savings on to the good customers we all are.
Side note, we need to bomb the living daylights out of Oz, he's been in a terrible mood since I've started being more regular on these forums for the last 2 months. I'm new so I don't know the situation but relax brother, we're all in this together.
As far as damaged packages go, I've been lucky with UPS, I've never had a box even be dented. I can't say the same for FedEx. I think they have a crew in charge of beating up packages!
ROTFLMAO... If I grabbed a beer there would be NO SERENITY! Ive been Clean for 11 and a Half years and I plan on keeping it that way..... There is no future in Booze..... ive spilled more than most guys have drank........Ozzie and Drugs and Alcohol = Chaos, death and Destruction..... ! LOL

if the driver leaves a package at your door and you don't get it due to it being stolen, the driver has to pay for the package. So if the driver has been burned in the past or if you live in a sketchy part of town, don't bank on them leaving it.
Just because Ccom ships your order the day you ordered it, that doesn't mean UPS picked it up that day. With most companies UPS picks up outgoing packages once in the afternoon, if your order gets shipped after this pickup then your order sits for a day until UPS comes back the next day to pick up. Where I work we have our own UPS trailer and once they show up to pick it up, nothing else goes out that day.
Your "shipping clock" doesn't start until UPS has your package, not at the time Ccom ships it. Now I may be wrong on this but I know UPS used to guarantee delivery and if you're in a 3-day zone and it takes 4 days then they would refund your shipping. We work with a company who tracks all of our UPS and Fedex shipments. Anytime they find a package that didn't get there on time, they file a claim and we get a refund and if the customer asks we refund their shipping charges. Now since Ccom does a lot of free shipping this doesn't help much here but it's something to keep in mind when dealing with other companies.
of course none of this changes the fact that the mail is pretty much faster 9 times out of 10 but I hope it helps to shed some light on how UPS operates.
