Now UPS has rescheduled the delivery till Friday. Has that happened to you guys before? I thought I was gonna go nuts waiting till tomorrow. Now I have to wait two more days! And Friday we are scheduled to get rain/ snow. www.creationspraise.zenfolio.com/

I had my 30D and Sigma lens coming overnight air and since I was tracking the thing I saw that sometime in the middle of the night the plane had engine trouble and was sitting somewhere in Ohio or something. It made it here about noon the following day. The only good thing to come of it was that since UPS messed up I was refunded the full shipping amount and that then paid for my 50mm f/1.8, so in the end I got an ever better deal but my jaw dropped when it showed that it was being rescheduled for delivery the next day. wow thats sucks but good at the same time.

When they say it will be there the next day it is, never fail. I hate UPS. I've had them screw up 3 of my last 3 deliveries. My last 2 FedEx deliveries were like clockwork. Robert

At least FedEX will get most shipments thru on time. Canon5DIII + Some L + Some non L + Some Sigma + Some Tamron + other stuff....

Sometimes I can get it that evening and otherwise the following morning. Robert
