Shipping Concern Not Thought Of

[ConcinusMan]

I do think FedEx will give you the best possible results for the future, don't lose hope on future shipments.

I don't get it. Doesn't seem to matter what middleman you use, if any. They still go fedex, and they all ship to memphis first even if you ship a package from Utah, to Minnesota. Ridiculous. Lesson learned. Always check the temps in Memphis and ship as if they will spend all day there, even though they aren't supposed to.

This will force me to have a shorter shipping window in the Spring and Fall.

Yeah, I don't get that. I ship all dang summer long without fatalities. Of course, they don't go to friggen memphis first though. I thought your shipping windows were way restrictive as it is. I do check L.A. ,Salt Lake city, and destination address temps because my packages always transfer in Salt Lake or occasionally L.A. Nobody can predict them getting stuck at the transfer city all day but if I planned for that, I'd have perhaps on 10 days a year I could ship and that just isn't going to work. I think incidents like this are rare enough that the chances of it happening makes it no more of a risk than shipping is under the best of circumstances. They might get stuck in Memphis all day Steve but they might also get struck by lighting or get caught in an August snow storm too. If you wait for Memphis' high to cool down that's just about the time it's starts freezing in Portland during the hours they are supposed arrive here.
