    ### FedEx?!

    I can't believe this shizzz. I placed an order last Sunday from chemical guys. And if you've ordered from them you'd know they ship with FedEx. So all week I've been tracking my order, no updates all week. But it said all week it would be here the 22nd - today. So today, I wake up check the status, WHAM! Changed the date from 22nd to the 26th. How the *bleep* am I supposed to have it by Christmas!? Ugh, every single time I've ever ordered something by FedEx there has been a problem too! It's sitting in Ohio for now.

    Could it have been delayed By snowstorm in the Midwest? FedEx cant control the weather if that was the case.

    It could be worse...!

    In all seriousness though, I truly hope you get your items before the holiday.

    The shipping costs we're all paying these days makes it even more difficult to bite our tongue when it takes over a week for something to arrive. It is the single biggest reason why I will look for stuff locally first rather than deal with shipping costs and waiting for a week to get something.

    There may be legitimate reasons for the delay FedEx is having in getting your package to you but you can consider calling or emailing FedEx and expressing your disappointment. I'm sure CG is a big enough customer of FedEx that they'll value your comments. You might want to let CG know, too, just in case you're not the only one and then maybe they will lean on FedEx as well. Again, I'm not pointing a finger at FedEx because I do not know the circumstances but there is no harm in you contacting them.

    I know! That's what frustrates me the most! I payed I believe $40 something dollars for shipping!?.. I normally wouldn't mind waiting, but it's for christmas! And it's not like I ordered three days ago, I ordered a week in advance!

    I wish I could find stuff locally though. But we don't have many choices around here now. A lot of the locally owned businesses have closed. And now in their place we got, walmart, target, etc. And they don't always have the best stuff, or sometimes they just don't sell something. I used to go around to local shops to get stuff, and not have to worry about all the hassle of ordering online.. But now I'm kind of forced too. The whole scheme of things is so frustrating. =/ But, what you recommended are definitely my next steps. I'm gonna see if they can deliver it before Christmas because this is crazy. What did I pay $40 for? Anyways, thanks for your input and Happy Holidays!

    I work for a 3rd party shipping company and use fedex, ups and dhl on a daily basis. There may be several factors for this delay.
    1. Weather delay
    2. Mechanical delay
    3. Was the package ground? If so sorry to inform you but since its the busy holiday rush they sometimes leave ground for last if they are overwhelmed by priority shipements.

    Either way the best thing to do is call fedex and see whats going on. If it got delayed for something not weather related you can always try and get a refund on shipping for failure of service. Hope this helps
