Has been getting packages from FedEx a day or two early? My GEIL came back from newegg in two days. The schedualed delivery date was tomorrow (Friday).

This happened with another package from a friend in Florida. The package I sent to newegg and the package I sent to my friend too. All 1-2days early.

Or, they're rushing your package to you because their scans found it infected with plague.

..... all i can say is, if i end up sending something or recieving something... i think i'll go fed ex...

Fed Ex in particular will put the item on the delivery truck when they get it, it is at the driver's discretion (if he/she has time - or likes you

) if they want to deliver it on the scheduled day or a day early. I've known my Fed-Ex guy for years. He shouts "Incoming!" whenever he comes in the shop - really great guy too.

I'll agree, Feb-ex is the bomb. They always deliver early. Newegg to always gets the stuff to me fast like 2 day faster than posted.
