We are pretty unhappy with the USPS (supposedly) 2 day delivery. Admittedly there was a holiday, but we saw a package that left here on Saturday take 5 damn days to reach Ohio. This is totally bullshit - we dropped the idea of using USPS. Everything is shipping FedEx. It costs over $100 to overnight a starter kit, but this is the only reliable way to get these kits to you guys quickly.
Expedited shipping will be FedEx overnight (domestic). Canada overnight might still work there - I'll check with Yvonne.
Non expedited shipping will be FedEx 2 day.
The problem we ran into is that USPS only guarantees 2 day delivery in "certain zones" - something they didn't bother to tell Yvonne when she was researching this.
Since Bitcoin mining is a game of days at this point, megabigpower.com will ship FedEx from now on, period.
We still have about 2 days of shipping left to do. I'm expecting more product tomorrow, but there's been a back up of stuff in AK customs. It should be cleared by now, but I can't tell by looking at the tracking info. It says expected delivery tomorrow.
Cheers,
Dave
Actually, Sunday and Holiday options can make it even in those circumstances but for an extra $$ ( I think there are some zipcodes where this might not work though). Here's a map of USPS "1,2,3 day guaranteed" Pretty Useful stuff:
https://www.usps.com/priority-mail/map/As I said before, I still don't get how some customers nickel and dime on shipping (1 or 2 extra bitcoins if anything??) and then they bitch around why they don't get their packages soon enough.
Love the idea of using FedEx too! We appreciate a lot your looking into this, Dave!
