Can't believe FedEx tried to deliver to wrong address

[Dwaine]

I had NGC send my 20th ASE back next day and the tracking says incorrect address. Has this happened to anyone and how did you go about getting your package?

Hasn't happened to me but I presume you can call Fedex with a tracking number and have them re-deliver.

FedEx bites! I do not trust them. I would never trust them. UPS or registered USPS is the only way to go.

Ditto!! DO NOT use UPS and FedEx to mail coins! Sooner or later, you will get hosed. There is no reason not to use the USPS for mailing valuable coins.

This is how NGC sent them. I wanted them sent overnight. I guess I will just always use registered mail with them.

The USPS can also ship overnight, and I would still consider it safer than FedEx. Most insurance companies would agree, since they usually require coins to be mailed via overnight USPS to qualify for insurance.

 

By the way, I have no particular bias against UPS and FedEx, and do use them for shipping other things, but for coins, my experience is that the good ol' Post Office is still the best.

I've had so much poor service from UPS over the past couple of years that I would hesitate to pay them to send anything for me. I thought I was alone until a couple of friends and acquaintances related their UPS horror stores to me.

And remember if they don't show up, unless NGC had the shipment privately insured you're hosed as Fedex does not insure coins even as collectibles. So if they are gone no insurance sorry.

Seems to me the only good way to get your stuff is to drive to Sarasota and pick it up yourself.

They were delivered today. I will post pictures tonight.

Of Course NGC has private insurance on packages sent out! It would be rediculous not to.

Was the address wrong? the way your OP was worded it sounds like Fedex was saying the NGC addressed the package wrong.

Why would that be rediculous? If they are average or above in prenting losses, then they would come out ahead to self insure.
