Hi guys, just a PSA - watchout if your precious Framework is shipping through FedEx.

Once mine shipped from Taiwan I requested they hold it at a shipcenter for me to pick up instead of dropping it off at my front door.

They ignored it and delivered it to my address. I was out of town for a day, so I was nervous the whole day just hoping it wouldn't get stolen.

Luckily it was still there when I got home. Also it took 7 days to ship, as it got held up at customs.

Glad you got yours OK, but warnings about shipping companies are a bit pointless because everyone is going to have a different experience based on their country, national and local FedEx/UPS/DHL locations, road/weather conditions, and performance of each individual delivery driver.
