Decisions, decisions. I'm ordering a computer case from B&H, and I have a choice of delivery method. I can get free FedEx delivery tomorrow, or I can pay $350.50 for "Standard Truck Delivery, 3-5 days." What to do. What to do.

Could "Standard Truck Delivery" be freight (private carrier)?
I had a microwave delivered that way MANY, many years ago when the microwaves were real heavy.

So many people have complained about FedEx deliveries they have decided to give you an option. Now you can't complain because if you use FedEx they can say you selected it! Oh what a hard decision!

I know how you feel. I also hate tough decisions.

That must be it, so they would have to hire a private company to drive round-trip 200 miles from NYC. FedEx is delivering it (computer case) today. It's funny, though, that the two emails from FedEx went into my Spam folder.

I'd pay as it will give you several days to complain that you didn't get it yet.

Like a broken record, record, record, record.
We enjoy the entertainment, BUT... Ifyou can’t afford the ‘ ante’, leave the game.
