welp, finally got around to ordering a fluidyne about a week ago, btw, absolute radiator has great prices...337 shipped.

well, it was supposed to arrive today and I was gonna change it out along with some gauges and my ect. Sounds like a day full of progress...until..

On the fed-ex tracking site it says that my package was delivered and signed for by some person I've never heard of......

I gave them a call and hopefully they can get my radiator to me here soon. The bad part is I don't have another day off til monday ......

So that pretty much messed up plans for the entire day. Oh well...Now I can finally get around to buying new bolts for my exhaust. Old ones on the passenger side somehow fell off guess that could be all that ticking I've been hearing

sry..bit of a rant

Had the same thing happen on a hard drive once.... delivered to the wrong apt. and when we finally tracked it down, I went over to ask the people. The fugger that lived there, had already opened it, and it appeared was about to install it in his computer! I was polite, but pissed.

They delivered my xbox mod chip to somebody about a half mile from my house on a different street. That's why I always use UPS whenever possible.

well, they delivered to a different part of the complex. I knew the guy they delivered it to and the guy flagged me down as I was passing him...talk about luck, lol.

Man, this thing is HUGE compared to the stock radiator. Looks like a pretty good quality piece.

just for the record...Great experience with absoluteradiator.com. Cheap and fast

Seems to be an ongoing trend. I've never had any good luck shipping with fedex, and whenever I receive something that was shipped through them, there always seems to be something wrong with the address or some bull****. I go with UPS any time I can, they never let me down yet

fed ex SUX they shipped my fluidyne well it got to there orlando distribution center and they put it on the wrong truck so they drove it around freaking orlando for a day then they were closed on monday so i had to wait another week, then they did the same thing with my BBK SSI intake that rea//y pissed me off and all they could say was it happens sometimes but twice within a month. well I guess thats what happens when you hire idiots and retards and dont train them , what sux even more is i have have some tokico shocks on the way lets see how long it takes for me to get them.

And i have never had a problem with UPS they are my shipper of choice

as a fed ex driver we are trained to try and leave a package with a nearby neighbor and leave you a door tag telling you were the package is but whenever i see a car part or something valuable ill just take it back to the station and have the customer pick it up cuz i know i wouldnt want anyone else touching my car parts

When I bought my Edelbrock Intake, I bought it from eBay. The idiot company that shipped it put my name on the box, but the address of another customer so it got shipped to somewhere in CT.

When I figured this out, I called them and they told me the address that they mis-shipped it to. I then called the town clerk where it was delivered and got a name and # from them based on the address.

I called the person up (that had already kept it for a week and didn't call UPS or the company from eBay), got a recording and left a message that I am the owner of the package that was delivered and that I was going to get the police involved if I didn't see it in a few days.

Funny thing, it got delivered a few days after. . .
