You need to look at the pros and not the cons. It could be worse, you could be ********* your drummer on the table... Enjoy the wait.
Just as long as the driver is competent you should be ok. The surprise factors is what makes the wait worth it.
Sign up for a free UPS account. From there you can have the package held for pickup at their nearest UPS facility for no charge. No waiting around or missing the doorbell as you are taking a shower. You just pick it up firs thing in the AM rather waiting for a driver to get to you place at some random time.
Yeah, and be sure you get the packaging out of sight, too. Hiding the bass in the closet isn't enough.
well, the bad news is the wife is home the good news is that shes going out to go shopping ... i still have a window
Know what's worse than waiting? Missing the delivery driver by five minutes when a direct signature is required! Happened to me last Friday waiting for a Fender P to be delivered.
