I'm sure most vendors will ship your package via FedEx is you asked them too. Don't panic! Though I am personally panicking over this lack of search on ECF.

I know my order from Liberty Flights is shipping via FedEx. I don't know if that's going to get it to you much faster unless you're specifically looking for overnight shipping. Frankly, FedEx is not the best, either. I checked tracking yesterday and it was due to arrive Monday. I checked tracking today and it's been bumped back to Tuesday. I'm afraid to look again for fear it will have become next weekend.
I placed three orders on the same day two weeks ago. Two shipped USPS and one shipped Fedex. ( One USPS and the FedEx came from the same state )
USPS arrived on the following Thursday. The FedEx package didnt arrive until the following Tuesday. So unless you're willing to pay next day prices, you're really no better off with FedEx.
Simplesins,
The exact same thing happened to me with Fedex originally scheduled for Monday bumped till Tuesday and THEN no activity on their tracker until Tuesday morning. I was freaking out.

Thats it. If I even open that stash I have in the fridge, I'm ordering more juice that same day.
Good luck CP, or go get some nic lozenges.....
P.S. There is nothing slower than <insert any shipper here> when you are waiting for nic juice and running low....

This leads to another thought - the fridge?!? Huh. Never thought about storing in the fridge.
Thanks for the info guys. I had ordered from TW and they told me they only ship USPS. I was thinking that it was an air regulation type of thing. I've always had good luck with FedEx, a USPS package will take over a week to get here from just 200 miles away.
You don't have to store it in the fridge, but a cool dark place is recommended. High heat and sunlight are nicotine enemies, as I understand it. I think most normal room temps are fine.
As for FedEx, my experience is that if you want next day delivery (weekdays) you "just" pay for it. You get it. I think they have a Saturday delivery option too. USPS has not been bad for me either, but I seems to vary somewhat from what I read. Depends on where you are. I'm not too far from a "major hub" area. Good luck.

Fedex ground isn't the best, not sure we use it sometime, I think on heavy orders it is quite cheap but it doesn't do the customer a great service. I need to update the shipping.
Yeah, Liberty I got my eGo from you guys and it took several days longer through Fedex. I saw on the tracking that you had it leave your place the day I ordered it ( which was fast and awesome! ) but fedex really screwed you on the timely delivery. I would still order from you again though. I just need to remember its gonna take ten days to get it delivered.
By the way, get more LR atomizers in stock hehehe Im gonna color code my flavors to my attys

I've had most of my shipments come USPS and normally get everything in 2 - 3 days (even from across the country).
UPS (which should be better service) can't get my package here in less than 2 days from about 60 miles away...I will not use UPS again. I can buy from different vendors if I need to....

If timeliness matter, I never use UPS--and if I have paid extra for 2nd day, it has gotten mis-routed and added a day *every single time.* Incredible. They are fine if you are not in a hurry, though.
UPS and FedEx Ground are both about the same. I timed shipments from across the country, and UPS won--but FedEx *will* send more than one truck to your house in a day, whereas the PO won't (except once with an EMS order, they did send it out special.)
FedEx 2nd Day and Overnight are both excellent, but you do pay for such a service, and I wouldn't use it unless I absolutely had to--like for an important contract, or my passport if it had expired and I was leaving on a trip.
If I ran out of supplies, I would go to the store and get Snus or something--not pay to overnight them.
Do remember though, that just because you get a tracking number does *not* mean your package is on a truck or plane headed to you. It only means the vendor has printed out a label

Usually that is marked as electronic notification, which means the shipping agent has been told by the shipper to come get the package. Its the next notification that matters, when the package hits the sorting facility. USPS can get a package from California to Minneasota in just two days from pick up to delivery, while fedex always takes at least four, and sometimes as long as eight shipping days.
This is what I love about Vicki (cignot.com) using USPS...Left Chicago, IL on the 29th...to my home in Lancaster, CA on the 30th....AWESOME!!!!
