Itā€™s probably the partnership USPS has with FedEx. I think itā€™s called last mile.

Nope, I was wrong. Smart post.

FedEx sent mine everywhere before coming to me. It stayed with them vs USPS getting involved. Imagine if the truck had been filled with half of my states items, thatā€™s a waste of fuel that drives costs up. It wasnā€™t on Nic River, they were awesome!

Yep, FedEx is horrible about moving packages and getting them where they need to go on time, yhea they get there but it always takes them an extra day or two.
Heck they wonā€™t even leave packages at my house, always have to go get them at Walgreens. I donā€™t mind that though at least I know Iā€™ll get them. Just donā€™t understand why, Iā€™ve never had a claim against them or any other carriers, that I can remember.

I trust FedEx over the over ones. I just couldnā€™t believe the track mine just made. I had three orders and the only one that took that route was the third. Maybe just a glitch on their behalf. The other two followed the same path if Iā€™m not mistaken.
The one company I just wonā€™t deal with is DHL. If I try to order something and see that as the carrier, Iā€™ll shop elsewhere. They have issues with speed and not wanting to properly deliver to my address, stated once my street was not on their GPS. Yeah, whatever the next day the driver said they had issues with newer drivers not delivering. :angry:

It was fast from them until it came east. Was less than 30 miles from me in AL, went to the other side of GA then to Nashville. Finally dropped down from there to me. That was just crazy.
I understand you about being in your state then just sitting. The Bham hub in this state hangs up many shipments to me. Those go south of me then jump back up. Iā€™ll never understand some shipmentsā€¦

In around 4-5 business days all the orders from the sale should be gone! Thatā€™s our current most realistic expectation. The sooner the order was placed during the sale, ultimately the closer it would be to shipping faster. :slight_smile:

Just got my holiday sale order in.Thank you for everything you do @Nicotine_River. I also have an 15mL bottle of TFA dx sweet cream that I didnt order. Thanks for the sample and if it was in error good luck getting it back. I already cracked the sucker open to give it a taste and will be mixing with it shortly.:wink:

I placed my order late into the sale. While I hope I receive it before VD, later would be fine with me too.

In fact I placed my order on New Yearā€™s Eve. Some of you may recall I had some confusion with my order that night and posted here. Very quickly I had a PM message from NR as well as everything being positively put in order the next day. Customer service on both New Yearā€™s Eve AND Day? I wonder which other DIY juice vendors do that?

Kudos to NR!
