well i come home and they i have that damn first attempt sticker on the door. its my gauge lights and i freaking have to wait another day. im so anxious. i wish they would just leave it at the door.

 

you know what i would do is go to their main office of your area and just pick them up...thats what i did with my springs....try it!

 

yeah isnt there a # you can call on the bottom of the paper if you want them to hold it for you to pick up.

my ups and fedex guy normally sign it themselves and leave the package for me since i asked them to.

 

im calling right now!!!!!

 

good!

 

Haha. I live in an apartment so they leave it in the office if I'm not home. It's awesome. That would be frustrating.

 

that's why i send all my crap to a friends house (redneckwithanxB). his mom/dad/brother/someone is always there to sign for packages

speaking of which, i have like 3 boxes over there with my name on it

 

I always leave notes on the door saying leave the package on the step. Print and sign my name.

 

Call and have them hold it for you. You can go pick it up tonight after the driver gets back in, or tomorrow.
There are several reasons why they wont leave it at a front door. If you live in an apartment they will never leave it at your door, or with a neighbor. If you live in a neighboor hood that has gotten packages stolen from the front door in the past they wont leave it either.

 

if u have a porch they should

 

they leave my isht on the front porch all the time, but they hide it so its not obvious

 

Beleive me, they don't want to take the package back to try to redeliver it the next day. If thet didn't leave it it was for a good reason.

 

It varies. Actually with all of the guages and HVACs I send and recieve, feel lucky you didnt use fedex.. thier drivers just do whatever they feel like, including skipping routes. I have had to pick up a couple from the Fedex place cause "no one was home" when they delivered. Funny, since they can only deliver to the main office here since our buildings are locked.. the office holds packages in a shipping room for us.. and someone is ALWAYS there during the day.

It also depends on how the shipper marked it. If they chose "direct signature" that means that the front office, secretary, mom, etc cannot sign to accept it.

 

im picking up the package tonight. just waiting for a phone call from them. damn automated machine. "you will be contacted by ups to set up a pick up time".

 

nevermind cant do that they want me to drive like a half hour and pick it up at like 8:30 screw that. i'll just have to wait. it'll be a weekend project. ill post pics after im done. I may have the new grill and gauge lights done by then.

 

that sucks!

 

in the mean time you can disobey the speed limit

officer- sir, do you know how fast you were going?
you- actually, i have no idea

 

yea but i bet that is illegal as all hell...

 

LOL And you can sue the delivery company for the amount of the ticket.

 

i havent taken the dash apart yet.
