Lance Thornton said:To the best of my knowledge, they won't leave high priced items at your doorstep. I spoke to a few UPS drivers and they explicitly told me that if they notice what the item is, and it is expensive, they won't leave it. If it's small or fairly generic, they will leave it, but in a somewhat out of sight place near the front door. I am lucky that I have a front porch and I've told them to leave the packages inside the porch at all times. I do miss the FedEx super saver shipping though. It was so much nicer.

As far as I can see, there is absolutely no reason in the world that Newegg, with their high shipping volumes, can't negotiate with Fedex and get a better rate, and at least have the option for Fedex at an affordable level.
That'd be real slick if you ended up stepping on the package and breaking your fans.DsN said:I found this funny.
UPS delivered my heatsink and fans the other day and as always decided to leave my package on the porch after waiting all of 5 seconds for me to answer the door, before deciding I wasn't home. I caught the guy putting my rubber doormat over the box. He said he "wanted to keep it warm." lol
