WOW, I’d be a bit steamed. Especially if you are having to work your schedule around their bloopers. It’ll eventually make it... hopefully before Christmas...lol.

I'm glad Fedex didn't deliver mine, can't remember the name of the freight company but ironically it was delivered from a terminal out of Mobile, the same driver delivered the Hunsaker too.

Still no Mak! I don’t know when I am going to get it. They haven’t called to setup another delivery date or anything. Pisses me off as I was hoping to break her in this weekend.

I called fedex and they gave me the run around about the lift gate several times. I called BPS yesterday and talked with a guy who said he would call me back and let me know what’s going on. I didn’t get a call back so I called BPS this morning. Talked with a lady that said the shipping manager would be in at 8:00 and she would have him call me this morning. Lunch rolled around with no call so I called back. Spoke with a guy and he said looking at the notes it says it will be delivered on Monday. Why the shipping manager didn’t call as promised is beyond me. Fedex didn’t call to schedule and it’s not showing on their site to be delivered Monday either. I have little faith that I will have it Monday. This is very aggravating to say the least. The guy from BPS said he would ask if they could send me something free for the hassle. I am not asking for anything really, I just want my smoker. I need to get her broken in for Christmas dinner. Plus, the longer it sits on the dock the better chance it has to get damaged.

Or in this case... FEDEX problems. Good things come to those who wait (and wait and wait and wait).... your day is coming buddy :)

A lot of hassles but in the end you will be happy For all the run around and unkept promises BPS should send you something

When my Humphrey's arrived, the driver wanted to wait around when I un-crated it because he wanted to check it out. That's my kid checking it out.

I have a special place of aggravation in my heart for FED EX. I have fought for the last 3 weeks on 3 different shipments to get the lazy sack of crap driver that they use to deliver to our house. EVERY other parcel service, even DHL with their sketchy looking crew, makes it easily and very often. It gets labelled as wrong address or undeliverable from Monday till Friday then....when there's another driver.....it gets delivered.


I hope you get your MAK soon. I know you'll enjoy it as much as I enjoy mine.

I understand totally. Fedex sucks if you ask me. I have always had good luck with UPS. I have gone as far n the past to cancel orders that were being delivered via FedEx because it was a 50/50 shot if I was going to get it. Did I mention that Fedex sucks?
