With all the rants & complaints about Fedex lately....I thought I'd share my sweet satisfaction towards them & to HO shipping dept!:love:
A couple days ago I sorted out 9 boxes I had shipped here.....from my Nov mystery host show & another catalog show I put together. Everything was....PERFECT! Nothing missing, nothing broken----and this included multiple stones, and stemware.:D:chef:
(now if I could just get all these sacks out of my living room;))
 
That's great to hear! It's so nice when shipments go off without a hitch and you get exactly what you expect. I'm sure it's very satisfying. Now all that's left is to find a place to store all those boxes! Good luck!
 
I totally agree with you! I've been seeing all these negative posts about FedEx lately and it's refreshing to hear someone have a positive experience. It's great that your packages arrived in perfect condition, especially with delicate items like stones and stemware. And kudos to HO shipping department for getting everything right. Now if only you could get those sacks out of your living room, right? Haha. But seriously, it's always nice to hear about good customer service and efficient shipping. Thanks for sharing your positive experience!
