KlipschFish Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 I am receiving a new tv today. This is a very late request. I'm in Wa state and it's been on the truck from New Jersey. I am usually ok with signing with an exterior look at the packaging but haven't ordered from the east coast. I want to open the carton and quickly plug in the power cord and see a menu screen so I can inspect. Is that asking too much? It's a long way through inclement weather to get here and I don't want problems if it's not functioning correctly. But delivery during Christmas and all... Thanks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave1290 Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Good luck. Hope everything is fine so you can kick back and relax! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KlipschFish Posted December 22, 2019 Author Share Posted December 22, 2019 Thanks! It's supposed to be 5 minutes out now. I think they do this a lot and it won't be a big deal for an extra 10 minutes. But that's imo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KlipschFish Posted December 22, 2019 Author Share Posted December 22, 2019 "Yep" they said, "we do it all the time". In less than 5 minutes they unboxed and set up the tv for the menu screen so I could check it out. In the time it took for me to sign and date and all that they had boxed it back up for me! Nice. It's not ready for install yet. All is good. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JL Sargent Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 I know some trucking company's allow 15 minutes to check out the delivery. If for some reason you are not happy DO NOT sign for it and return it to shipper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KlipschFish Posted December 23, 2019 Author Share Posted December 23, 2019 I received 9 emails from the seller and the trucking company while delivery was in progress. None of which had a delivery discription. And I called both several times in the days leading up to delivery. On hold with each for an average of 32 minutes. (I know. I have too much spare time!) And not ONE callback after leaving a message. But immediately after leaving my house, I received an electronic invoice from the deliverer stating I had 'Silver plus" delivery which included everything I was going to request from them. I would have liked to have known that in advance, I'm kind of an anxietous worrier over big budget items. Especially after 9 correspondences. It's all good, tho. Maybe the holidays were overwhelming to the companies. Thanks everyone. And Merry Christmas! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
