Call FedEx's 1-800 number and request them to hold the package for pickup. It should be available later tonight.

No No Airborne Sucks..

Call fedex, ask them to come back today or give you the location of the driver. He can call you and you can meet him.. TRUST me... I am a seasoned pro at chasing UPS and Fedex...

Airborne sucks. Stay focused.

My 10.3 left Rancho Cordova (five miles from my house), then took an interesting journey:

Rancho C -> Oakland
Oakland -> Memphis
Memphis -> Sacramento
Sac -> Rancho
Rancho -> my house (trucked)

All in 30 hours.

Convoluted but speedy.

Oh yes they do... In the last year they delivered one package to the wrong address and were unable to deliver two packages to my address, which meant I had to drive to their office to pick up the packages that I paid to have delivered to me.
