    I’ll believe it when FedEx isn’t a dumpster fire of a delivery service. Every time there’s been some bizarre issue getting my delivery, it’s been FedEx. One time, we ordered some furniture. One box on one truck came, we signed, opened it, and found half the components missing with instructions talking about a second box. We call FedEx, and “nope, says here just the one box, and we delivered it, idk, contact the seller”. While we’re trying to reach out to the seller, a second FedEx truck shows up thirty minutes after the first and delivers the second box. Like, wtf? Also, we had a fruit tree we order just fucking get stuck for a whole ass month in one of their distribution centers. It’d go out for shipment each day, and each day be returned. Finally, after a month, they just said “it’s not coming lol”.

      Neither of those sound like the fault of the shipper. The furniture company shipped your shit in two packages, how is that FedEx’s problem? The second one, who tf buys a whole ass tree online? Did you expect a FedEx arborist to show up with a tree on a flatbed?

      I’m willing to bet the vendor sent those two boxes as two separate “1 of 1” shipments. No idea what the deal with the tree would be.

        Who tf buys a whole ass tree online though, like FedEx doesn’t have an arborist with a flatbed on call.
