Due to living in Hawaii, most places will only ship via UPS. I really really hate that as I always have issues with them. I get charged $30 for 2-Day air. Not horse back or boat, but AIR. The idiots left my package back at the facility.
Seriously, do people not check before the plane takes off. I wonder if they have ever left a pilot behind. Their response, We don't give a $hit. 2 weeks ago, they lost one of my packages after the service rep guaranteed my package was going to be delivered. :mad:

Location Date Local Time Activity

12/16/2014 11:20 P.M. We've left the package in our facility. This may cause at least one business day delay. / Your delivery has been rescheduled for the next business day.

I'm going to go ahead and take the leap that your package contained a non-sport trading card?

I prefer this over the much more negative assumption that you don't realize "non-sport" is a category of trading card, since your post clearly belongs in the community section of the fourm...

Maybe someone should just tack the word 'cards' on to the end of the category, to save us the trouble. Lol.

Non-Sports : Not the forum you're looking for. Unless it is.

You leaped correctly. My "non sports cards" boxes from another online seller (not from Ebay). My story is about trading cards NOT arriving on time. :D

I'm going to be the one to go ahead and point out the elephant in the room..

You live on an island, in the middle (legit) middle of nowhere dude! Be happy anyone delivers there, outside of boat! :D

Come to the states, you'll find UPS is a premium carrier. USPS leaves my stuff on the side of the road, rain or shine.

Unless we have not been told yet, Hawaii IS apart of the states. The 50th to be precise. :flex:

UPS is by far the best delivery service for me here in New Zealand. Every order I have had from a seller using USPS has never turned up - one ended up in Singapore and has never left; another got to Canada and disappeared plus 2-3 others I can't remember. I make a point now to make sure the seller is aware that if they are shipping USPS it won't arrive!

ehrhrmm let me clarify - CONTINENTAL states.

Let's be real, though. Hawaii isn't a real US State. It's just a piece of land int he middle of nowhere we scooped up for monetary/strategic reasons.

NJ is the greatest state to live in. If you don't like it, move to Pennsyltucky.

Yes, very true, but a very nice piece of land with no snow. (Lived in PA for 7 years). :p

gerry609, how long are you buying stuff online? I live in Puerto Rico (an USA Territory). So like the people in Hawaii and Alaska, we pay a lot for UPS and never get the same service.

Another thing. Maybe you pay for 2day, are you sure the seller shipped 2day?

Hi Kane1, I have been buying for 5 years (Since moving to Hawaii from PA) here in Hawaii. I find (much to other peoples dismay) USPS to be soooo much better than UPS. It shows 2nd Day shipping with the tracking. Now ground service takes 7 days to get here and is not that much cheaper. If I get USPS shipping (With Blowout), it takes 3 days. I have had very few issue with them.
