Damn...
I've been expecting my ipod for a few days now.

First it had an estimated delivery for December 8th, and now its December 9th.. and earlier today it said it was in the 'hands of the courier'.. and they just changed it from that too "scheduled for delivery". so apparently they didnt get to me yet. 2 Days I have been expecting it and DHL pretty much tricked me both times

well it's nearly 8pm here.....they must be busy delivering all those ipods. Mine says it's expected to be delivered today but says it's sitting an hour away. So, I guess it will be here in the morning? Where are you located anyways? rough area is fine.....don't need specifics. I'm in NW Ohio!

Yeah, I'm in Virginia, and it was supposed to be here today as well. No dice. They haven't even updated the status since the initial "Picked up at shipper's door", so I am getting a little nervous....

Their tracking page is lacking a lot. UPS is the only other delivery Co. that I've tracked a package with, and they update the location 2 or 3 times a day, and DHL hasn't updated since Tuesday.

DHL sucks...my package got within 15 minutes of my house at 644 am Friday morning (the day it was expected to be delivered) and it's not here yet. I better get it tomorrow or I"m quitting freeipods.com

Shipment History

DATE TIME ACTIVITY AND COMMENTS LOCATION

12/8/04 1 29 am Departing origin. South Bend, IN

12/7/04 5 07 pm Picked Up by DHL. Shipper's Door


It could be anywhere, and I don't know where because DHL won't update my status. evil

well maybe its going cross country so there are no updates to be done, driving from Indiana to California or the west coast takes a while

Yeah... they should give the option to chose wich delivery service you want to use. If there is a diffrence in money I would pay it. USPS and FEDEX update everylittle thing...

Example.

12/7/04 1210 PM Package put on truck

12/7/04 1212 PM Delivermya scratched his ass

You get the point.

Funny stuff, they updated mine this morning. It magically went from "Picked up at Shipper's door" to "With delivery courier" with no steps in between. I'm happy as long as I get it!

I finally scored mine. It's charging as we speak. Anywho.....I was just looking things over and it looks like you need sig. confirmation anyways but on my box it looked like two shipping labels...the one underneath is upsidedown. Evidently efulfillment had it labelled for Jonathan P. of Jackson River Rd. Can't read much else but if you're that person and you're on hold, I know where your ipod went!! twisted

Yeah, DHL sucks. They left the package a) without anyone signing for it, b) on the porch, in the rain, in full view of the street and c) AT MY NEIGHBOR's HOUSE, not one, but TWO doors down.

Luckily, I have a really nice neighbor, and he brought it over for me.

Man, nothing makes me more mad than when people forget there is a state called Washington ). If I wanted to mean DC, i would have said DC, not washington p

I had guessed you meant WA and not DC. I was just surprised you didn't seem too sure Utah was closer to you than Indiana.

A word to the wise my DHL online tracking said "no signature required" and the DHL operator confirmed it over the phone. Then (after the obligatory "oops! didn't feel like dropping by your house" day) it showed on the site as "delivery attempted". The BOX had a signature sticker but DHL didn't have a record of it. Had to go to the warehouse (why are those never somewhere convenient and unscary?) and pry it from their underachieving fingers.

Of course, if your only problem is that the iPod (which is swell, by the way, but promptly demanded its own 6-pin wirefire port) is in town but not yet delivered, well you're doing okay.
