I thought Fed Ex didn't deliver on Mondays?? am I crazy?? I just checked the tracking on one of my orders and it says its on the truck for delivery....
 
They are not supposed to deliver to us on Mondays. But they actually can. There are two different parts to them, business and home. Home is Tuesday-Saturday and business is Monday-Friday. It really doesn't make a lot of sence, but they didn't ask me!

It could be delayed until Tuesday though.
 
but arent we business :D

That's true we are a "Home Business" aren't we;)
 
we don't have business shipping usually though because we aren't at business addresses. Kinda like our hosts, they ship to them the same as us
 
Some areas of the country don't actually have the home division of FE, so they get deliveries M-F.
 
In my area we only get deliveries M-F
 
Yes there was info circulating early in the transition to Fed Ex that we would get Tuesday thru Saturday delivery. But, I immediately saw that I was getting orders (or hosts) same as before, M-F.

Even though we are a business, we get residential status for delivery. As I understand it, a key difference in these types of shipping is that with residential Fed Ex does not require someone to sign for the packages.

This comes up with hosts sometimes when you are explaining that their order will be arriving via Fed Ex. Many are used to signing for packages at work and they can get a little panicky about that related to their PC show. So...its good to know that the residential shipping status we have with fed ex doesn't require that signature.
 
My FedEx guy is Home Delivery - says it on his truck. However, I have gotten at least one delivery on a Monday from a guy with the business truck.

Got my package today!! I didn't get to see the side of the truck though...

The box was open when I got it:eek: luckily nothing was missing.
 
We are considered home delivery because we have our products delivered to homes, not businesses even thought we are considered a home based business.
 
I learn something new here everyday! Never heard of the no deliveries on Monday thing. Although I hadn't been online to track my supply order and sample package order, I figured they should be arriving today, but now I know why they wouldn't have. I look forward to tomorrow!
