Why on earth would I want to shop somewhere that I can guarantee will ship with FedEx? I'll actively avoid places that only offer FedEx shipping as it is.

I feel like everyone has had a bad experience with one of the major delivery services and just decides to shit on them. I've had packages busted by FedEx, usps, ups, that guy that drops off packages from his unmarked van. Like I get 97% of stuff okay, but 3% comes broken from them all.

I've had issues with FedEx, Amazon, DHL, USPS, UPS, Ontrac. I personally can't just avoid them all unless I just want to avoid any kind of shipment. I've actually had the least issues with FedEx & DHL. It's all on a person-by-person basis.

USPS is one of the most annoying ones. In many places I've lived, I somehow keep getting couriers that marks a package delivered but it isn't there. And when I call USPS, they said I have to wait a couple days to report it missing. I know that doesn't happen to everyone; I am just unlucky.
