[QUOTE="beentheredonethat, post: 107351, member: 4886"] Wily, If she got it in one day, I'm thinking it had to be delivered by UPS to her. Since it would take a day for us to get it to USPS and another for them to deliver it themselves. It sounds like she paid for UPS Basic. Where as you know some are delivered to the USPS for the final leg, and others are delv by UPS. It's the customer who determines it based on a variety of things. The Basic Service is a really difficult one. Some customers want a cheaper way to do it, and FDX as well as other third party provides this service. If we don't give it to them they will not use us at all for that part of the business, and possibly take all their business elsewhere. Now the tough part is that Basic should be 1-2 days more transit time. Usually we do that by getting the pkg from the customer where there are holes in the feeder scedule. We also process the volume the next day at the front line of the hub sort. Sounds like this was all processed the same day. The only other scenario I can think of is when the original poster said it was super saver. Maybe she paid for Next Day Saver, which granted is more expensive then ground but it does have the word saver in the label. [/QUOTE]
