Deliveries

I'm getting a part delivered to me and it's supposed to come today. Just wondering what time those guys that come to your door usually show up at.

I don't wanna get stuck here all day waiting to sign a damn package.

all depends on their route. If on their route, you are near the end, then near the end....if near the front, then at 9:00. Usually inbetween 9:00-4:30-5

purolator will leave a parcel on your door step unless it requires signature...when I would order records from the UK and they werent sent royal mail I would have a purolator sleeve on my step....they may leave that ish on your door step

Why not post office, for small items like this, they can put in it your mailbox.

But I guess they use one courier for better managing.

Show up at the door naked, grab the parcel and most often the delivery guy won't want to contend with a naked guy.... You might get away without paying customs fees...

otherwise...

be patient...it will come one day

i've chased the purolater or ups guy at my place.. all the idiot does is knock once and start walking away. i was putting on some clothes when i saw him walking to th ehouse.. just a shirt and jeans from the night before.. mother****er was almost in his van when i got to the front door. and i don't live in a mansion.

make sure you are in a position to hear the van.

these guys are used to no one being home, so they just go leave notes to make their day finish faster.

i always have stuff shipped to my work now.

royal mail is key

always cheap and has never taken longer than a week to receive it (for me anyways)
