Last Thursday I ordered a Mickie James figure from mattelshop.com and they shipped it via UPS Mail Innovations. Its been a week since the item shipped and I still haven't got it. This shipping service is a piece of shit and I really mean it. If the toy was shipped via regular UPS it would have got here by now.
Lets reference Animaniacs for a second. Remember those Good Idea Bad Idea segments? Well this is one of those. Good Idea, shipping a package through USPS. Bad Idea, letting UPS ship the package through the USPS. I never heard of this bullshit shipping service before so I was curious to find out more about this UPS Mail Innovations. So I Googled UPS Mail Innovations and found out they have real shitty reviews. I really mean shitty.
In September I ordered a T-shirt from a website, It was shipped via FedEx Smartpost. I am going to do a comparison here between UPS and FedEx's mail services. With FedEx I got my T-shirt in a week. With UPS it's been a week and I still haven't got it. If FedEx is faster than UPS, wouldn't UPS try to be faster?
Well that answer is no in my opinion. Because mail is not really a priority to UPS. If I was waiting for a heart for a transplant and it was being shipped UPS Mail Innovations I would be dead by now.
Another problem with this service is the tracking info. Since I work part time and go to college part time, I have time on my hands to track a package. Although most people don't have time to do so. They shipped the package on the Friday the 21st of January. and the tracking info wasn't updated from that time since until Tuesday the 26th. When I get something shipped via regular UPS tracking info is updated constantly. This is ironic since UPS is the largest courier service. You would think that they would be consistent with all of their parcels being shipped.
If I could sue them for every day that I suffer without my Mickie James Diva figure. I just want my darn figure already.
