AG Shipping Fed EX

Ok, I haven't placed an order since Black Friday till the other day. I am stocked up. All my packages for the last year and a half or so have always came UPS. When did this start? Don't get me wrong, I really don't have anything negative to say about UPS, but for a couple years now have preferred Fed Ex. I just feel they are a more prompt service, usually always get them a day or two before the date given. Am I that far out of the loop?

I've noticed that too. But it seems like Fedex has a faster delivery time to the west coast than UPS does.

My experience with FedEx vs UPS, specifically as it pertains to AG, has been much better with FedEx. Even being just north of AG in Georgia, my orders arrive a day sooner. FedEx also appears to be gentler when handling the packages. All the shipments I have received from UPS lately looks like the box was dragged behind the delivery truck to my location. Hopefully AG sticks with FedEx!

I too hope AG sticks with FedEx, however if they shipped packages with a horse and buggy I would still do business with them, they are the best at what they do!

It must depend on your location. FedEx where I live is terrible and UPS is more careful and more responsive. 95% of packages I receive from Amazon come from UPS. The UPS driver gave me his cell phone number in case I had any problems. FedEx just throws the packages on the sidewalk (not the porch) and runs away without ringing the doorbell.

FedEx has been a very welcomed change.
