Dude I hear ya! I spent 15 minutes arguing with this lady and she would not budge!! I've never had an issue with UPS - they always are willing to move the package to one of the many local UPS stores so I can go pick it up Saturday. Some are even open Sundays.

On a good note. Just ordered my oil. I should have it by Friday. Dang the bench pics. Installed pics are much better.

Yours is shipping out today!

My bare pan with plugs arrived today unharmed. It is a beautiful piece. The little one-way flapper baffles are precision fit, move with no bind and make solid click against the stop when slamming shut. Neat design, Charles.

Thank you! I just made 12 more pans!

Those flappers are a hassle! I need to figure out something with my laser cutting guy to handle them so they dont require all the hand fitting work.

I appreciate the post

Thread Update:

The Pre-Sale is now all caught up and run its course.

I am happy to say this product is now a standard product. The first post has been updated to reflect this. Pans are in stock. The webpage was updated to accept standard orders. There are 2 pans in stock right now, and more that were just machined and will be ready for shipping in a couple weeks.

We can keep this thread going for any questions comments etc. I am going to ask an admin to just remove the "Prototype" word from the thread title.

Lastly, for those of you having trouble with FedEx. I am about to call them again and fight it out some more to figure out what their problem is.

I just went another 10 rounds with FedEx... they are done-zo. Took off my credit card authorization and probably got myself put on speaker-phone for the entire call center's amusement.

Todays outgoing is the last of FedEx from me.

phunk · 09-23-2015, 10:26 PM

I ended up canceling todays outgoing with FedEx and printed UPS labels for that stuff and still got it out! F FedEx! They are done.

Japanjay · 09-23-2015, 10:46 PM

Damn I was going to change my shipping address to my business that is open from 4am-8pm with someone always there but you already shipped out today. Hopefully UPS wont give me the run around. Tracking number?

They are automatically sent via email, so you might want to make sure you arent blocking emails from UPS. Edit oops I didnt realize the UPS tracking pages displayed personal information. Ill PM it

Excellent... ENT-Z's pan already got back to me today so it looks like I can wash my hands of FedEx for good!

Looks like Fedex works about as well as anything else with the word "federal" in it.

FYI, anytime you ship fedex with insurance for $500 or greater, it requires a signature in person. If you have it redirected to a retail location, they will hold it 3 days. their substations are 10. I recently had something sent to a retail location, called them because I was on vacation and couldn't get it until the 4th day and they said sorry, we are sending it back then. Totally ridiculous!

UPS has never been a problem for me with shipping and I have been spending about 10k per year shipping with them. Never once lost a package and only 1 or 2 late deliveries due to weather.
