Hoping this is the right spot to post this. A bit of backstory and my question(s):

I'm having a game shipped from west coast out east. I've done the same before in the last year with NAVL/STI without issue.

This time around I got my quote and delivery date which was today- 1/24. STI's tracking has shown that it was sitting at the final delivery company's warehouse since 1/18. It's about 120 miles away from me. I called STI and they put me through to that company.

They told me that they didn't have it scheduled today. I pressed and said I have the paperwork that says otherwise. I then got the apologies and excuses (they are using a new system, etc.) but they would get it out Monday.

My major issue is that I burned the day waiting and now I have to the same Monday. Today we have perfect weather and now Monday has snow. I was told per the agreement that today was delivery, so they should be responsible and held to that.

So here's my questions:

Has anyone had this happen before? How did you deal with it?

Do I call Judy at NAVL/STI and complain to try to get the delivery reduced considering it was the regional company's error and now it's costing me time?

Any insight is appreciated!

Shit happens. Just hope it works out on Monday.

I have had NAVL have to reschedule and here's how I dealt with it:

Stay on top of it and call first thing Monday AM with your contract # and make sure things are moving.
