I checked my tracking at like 3:30 this afternoon, and it didnt say out for delivery, so I figured it wasnt coming today. I got home and there was one of the UPS tags on my door, and a attempted delivery time of 9:00. I thought UPS stopped @ 7:00 or like 7:30.

That is unusually late. Did it say 9 pm? I'm thinking they came by at 9 am possibly. UPS is very consistent with transit times but very inconsistent with delivery times. I've never had the driver come at the same time twice.....ever......and its usually the same driver! I work in shipping so I understand how delivery routes vary from day to day but our drivers are usually in the same are each day at around the same time.

Sometimes their system not up to date, had one once that wasn't even in their system at all with tracking number yet it made it here. I've never seen one around here after 6pm myself except during Xmas rush season.

UPS shipped MY package to the neighbors house yesterday and tried to tell me that it was shipped to me...luckily i have honest neighbors...

They did that before to me on a $50-60 box of cards. I don't even know the neighbors that they sent it to, much less trust them with a package of that value.

NEW AND IMPROVED!! Check out my bucket! @ http://s861.photobucket.com/albums/ab175/benshobbies/ My photobucket! Right now all that is uploaded is my PC, but its a work in progress. Cards updated regularly! Praise God!

Collecting the 2008 UD Masterpieces Captured in Canvas Green Game Used Jersey set. Please PM me if you have any cards I need! I am 29/60 (49%) through the set.

I collect O.J. Mayo 2008-09 RC's and 2008+ Miami Dolphins RC's. Mainly interested in Chad Henne & Jake Long. Let me know if you would like to trade.

My brother is a UPS driver, and on busy days he doesn't get off until 8:30 pm (like yesterday).... that means his last delivery would be around 8pm... that happens once or twice a week...

It does happen and I guess that it depends on how busy they are. I've received packages from them as late as 8:30-9:00 PM.
Thanks, Matt

I've had mail/packages delivered late by both usps (almost 8pm) and UPS (around 8pm), so it's not impossible.

I'm glad our UPS driver is a lifer and he's really good with the packages.
