Shipping catastrophe!
On May 02, 2008 in Mobile, Travel, Merchandise by jared
Okay, so…
We went to pick up a multiple palette shipment from a NJ UPS Freight hub, only to find out that they “can’t find our palettes.” After about an hour of desperate searching, they recovered one- the most recently shipped one, actually. The other palettes left one day earlier.
After doing some more research, it turns out UPS made a mistake and broke apart our palettes and tried to ship the boxes out individually. How could they even ship them? Some boxes had old shipping labels on it and UPS decided to direct these packages back to their original destination (some boxes and labels date as old as two years) or to an anonymous/lost package facility in the mid-west. That’s right, our packages have been dispersed throughout the country!
We are Next Day AM overnighting almost 100 boxes of merchandise from our Orlando facility today and it should get to us BARELY in time to set up for Bamboozle.
WHAT A DAY.
On the bright side, Chris Crocker and Unforgivable are in town, and they were really awesome.
