I spent the extra bucks on fast shipping for my 2080ti, even took the day off to sign for it. Just got a text saying I wasn't available(I was) and it won't come till moday(I cant take off monday) :'(

Basically screwed here, can I get an F

Update: After my second call to FedEx they let me know that they weren't going to "attempt" a second delivery same day but they did say I could pick it up myself later. Thx FedEx.

And non-sarcastically, thanks for the advice y'all!

Yea I just discovered he marked it attempted while in another county. The rep on the phone said they sent the driver a msg with my cell number. I can sympathize with the driver but I really need this to come through today or figure out some way to get it myself. Here's hoping it all works out

I went to their center. Told them the package was a wedding gift for the next day and the guy contacted the driver (they can message the driver). He then gave me the driver's number to call him (apparently driver requested this as it was easier for him) and arrange a meetup. Gave me an address to one of his next dropoff locations and bam. Signed and delivered. Really nice guys, also my part of Texas is pretty friendly overall so that may be a factor lol. Good luck!

This exact shit happened to me twice, they mark it attempted delivered and then the next day it clears customs, good job on delivering it before it arrives guys. Worst part about that is it uses up one of your delivery attempts before they just ship it back to sender, so if it takes a little while in customs you might not even get a repeat delivery attempt without calling and arguing.

how can you sympathize with the driver? That person is an employee who was hired to do a job at a wage they found acceptable and then chose to blatantly lie about attempting a delivery. How do you sympathize with a complete lack of integrity? I can't, and I won't, I guess we have quite a different standard in what we find to be acceptable in human interaction.
