A heads up If you are waiting, for something!
An interesting development in the shipping of packages of Harbor Freight on line purchases. The replacement blades for a throatless shear, came today finally. It had appeared that they were lost
as: Mar 14, 2011 11:46 PM, Departed FedEx location, FEDEX SMARTPOST BELLEVILLE, MI.
And their was no update on the web site, since the 14,
They had left harbor freight Mar 9, 2011 5:26 AM then it was a cross country trip
Nothing for two days till this was just posted: Mar 16, 2011 3:49 AM,At U.S. Postal Service facility,MOUNT CLEMENS, MI, Arrived at local Post Office - Allow one to two additional days for delivery
It was already delivered before the above was posted on the internet.
Some of the items will not be delivered by the FED X truck. But by the post office at a future date. It seems that it would be cheaper and faster for them to do it like before and ship by the post office. It always seemed that I got the packages faster then now.
I guess that is what the term smartpost is referring to. Seems sort of a dumb way of doing it!
As a side note the blades look to be a better finish quality. Then on the same type items in the past haven't given them the file test yet.
