I've called when the shipping has delayed so long to get it out, delivery will occur after I leave town. I've called UPS or Fed Ex before the package even gets into the state, and they've said that only the shipper can modify delivery; otherwise, they must attempt delivery at least once. For things that don't have a signature requirement, I've told them that if they leave it at my door and it isn't there when I finally get back, I'll hold them responsible.

They have a contractual responsibility to ensure safe delivery. In such a case, they were alerted to the fact that they would not be able to do so, and chose to ignore the warning. Even if they are on the hook with the *shipper* as a result, I will not be the one to bear the burden. -- to respond (OT only), change "spamless.invalid" to "optonline.net" <http://www.thecoffeefaq.com/> |

With shipments requiring no signature the customer (you) bears no responsibility whatsoever, all liablity is between shipper and carrier... without signature if the package is lost, stolen, and/or damaged resolving the matter is strictly between the carrier and shipper. Most shippers these days opt for no-signature delivery for shipments under certain dollar value to save on shipping costs, of which the customer (you) receives no monetary benefit but also bears no burdon. I've had many shipments arrive late even though I've paid for "express" delivery... I'm still responsible to pay for the product but have had the "express" charge deducted, and most mail order/dot.com companys will then also refund the entire shipping charge rather than risk losing a customer. In fact when you're a steady customer all you need do is ask and most of the major companys will drop the shipping charge when the order is placed, just be sure to place your order with Customer Service during normal business hours, the ordinary order takers are outsourced and have no authority. ---= BOYCOTT FRANCE (belgium) GERMANY--SPAIN =--- ---= Move UNITED NATIONS To Paris =--- ********* "Life would be devoid of all meaning were it without tribulation."
