So I head on down to Fed -Ex to make a shipment to an FFL.
Usually about $48 for two day shipping from Alaska to Texas.
But, the new guy there acts all weird about the box. Then he sees that the receiving FFL has an obvious firearms name in the address. So even though the box does not really look like a rifle box anymore (two hours of packing it in foam),
I tell him the truth when he figures out what it is...
Then he proudly proclaims that Fed-Ex does not want this "stuff" in their system any longer than possible.
So he says that I can't use the two day shipping like I have been doing, but that the box MUST go Fed-Ex priority overnight to Texas.
The cost: $95.61 with $500 of insurance.
Has anyone else run into this???
Or is this guy blowing smoke up my Tepee???
If he is, I will be filing a complaint...
