refresh the tracking on your golf clubs repeatedly, every day until they show up? This is getting frustrating. The last line just departure scan 7am 2 days ago. No way it should take this long to get here... argh, come on ups, hurry up! I have to golf tomorrow, and I don't want to use my old clubs!

I'm like that with anything I order...

I also do the same with anything I order. Its cool I understand your excitement. Kinda like Christmas, but you know you are getting exactly what you want!

I was certainly that way when I ordered my first set of Mizuno MP-57's. Called the wife when I saw the tracking change to "Delivered". Yep she got 'em... Ran home and opened up the box, took a club out and realized that they were counterfeit!!!

Talk about an emotional roller coaster... Bursting with excitement to puking in your mouth emptiness in 1 second...

Enjoy the new clubs... BTW, what are you getting?

Guess I'm the opposite.. I ordered 2 hybrids from TGW.. One went on backorder and I forgot about it. When it came a month later talk about shock.. lol

I dream of the day fedex puts GPS tracking on individual packages so I can watch them drive up to my door :)

I was like that with mine a couple weeks ago. They arrived at central receiving... instead of waiting a couple hours for them to deliver to my building, I wandered down at lunchtime and picked them up in person. The receiving guys were cracking up because the package had "callaway golf preowned" plastered all over it-- they knew why I was in such a hurry to pick it up. Turned out they were pretty avid golfers and we had a little chat about equipment. Kind of fun.

I got my first set of actual name brand golf irons coming in the mail. ebay specials: TaylorMade Burner Super Steel's 3-9, pw, aw, sw... s-90 stiff rifled shafts, nice grips... great condition. $86 shipped.

I love to see the status say:

"On vehicle for delivery"

[enis750]

especially when dude says he will send it as a gift, he doesnt, the FEDEX asks for an $80 brokerage fee..thats awesome! hahaha!

Even gift doesn't work too well anymore since they picked up on companies doing that for their customers. I think "product demo" is the rage now for avoiding duty and extra tax :)

And Fedex isn't near as bad as UPS ground. $17 brokerage fee + the taxes get added on.

I've been that way with a few things I've ordered.

The two most recent that had me watching closely were my iPod Classic and a pair of Oakleys.


One thing that is handy is to have them email you progress....USPS, UPS, Fed Ex....etc. will do it for free...request it from the tracking screen.

I'll put my work and yahoo emails in there and then forget about manually tracking.

If you guys have a Mac there's a widget that will let you track packages and it alerts you whenever the status changes. It's pretty cool.
