So in a clear case of poor self control, I purchased a set of 17″x7.5″ Audi TT 5 spoke wheels off a guy on the VW Vortex forums, and I’ve been waiting with baited breath ever since for their arrival, which is supposed to be today. They went on a ups ground truck last Wednesday in Cali, and showed up in Hodgkins, Il. yesterday, so all seemed well for their delivery today. But then I check on the status today, expecting to see that they first hit Northbrook (the local distribution hub) and then that they were out for delivery. But instead I put in the tracking number and see that it still has the package in Hodgkins. So I keep checking all morning, hoping to see it put on a truck and sent out for delivery. I finally check the details on all the packages (4 wheels, 4 packages), and see that two made it to Northbrook last night, and are now out for delivery, and TWO ARE STILL IN HODGKINS! WHAT THE @!#$. It still says they’re scheduled to be delivered today, but as it gets later and later in the day, I get the feeling that the description will magically become “lost in warehouse, delivery delayed,” as has happened a number of times before. Stupid UPS. However, they’re still better than USPS, who’s “tracking numbers” don’t actually work until after the package is delivered. Yeah, way to call them tracking numbers (confirmation numbers).
