@ACraigL@Kidsandliz click on the tracking number, and then again on the tracking number in what opens (up there) so you can see it on the Fedex website…
Mine shipped too! and shipped fed ex, does this mean they are not using that rinky dink shipping service they used to use that involved the post office and took forever and the boxes looked like they went thru world war 3??
@Stumpy91 FedEx seems to be delivering more of their Smartpost packages rather than handing them off to the USPS. Maybe you’ll get lucky, if you consider that lucky.
@Barney@Stumpy91 in my little corner of the world, FedEx only drops off P.O. Box deliveries. They were dropping a pallet or two everyday. The labels look the same.
Mine’s arriving Saturday! This sucks. I don’t get the months of anticipation, watching every tiny update on the Pitney Bowes tracking, wondering what city is next, and whether it’ll be closer or further from my city than the one before it.
@J5892@RiotDemon We have had the same issues with Fedex around here. The local news even did a story about the local distribution center being a black hole for packages.
Last IRK came by Fedex also-fast and on time. Just got e-mail saying it has shipped with a Thursday delivery. So instead of waiting for a hurricane this week, am waiting for an IRK.
@Felton10 Saw what the 3 people who have already gotten them received-not impressed at all. In fact one guy got exactly the same stuff I got in my last IRK, except for one item. I am in for a huge disappointment.
I’m not even sure what to predict…shipped quickly enough that I don’t think I will get some warehouse dude just emptying the shelf and it was some pre staged IRK of a wireless headset, claw Crocs, maybe a coffee pot and a flashlight. Hope I’m wrong.
@djslack based on what the FedEx people are getting you might be winning the lottery here with your IRK even if PB takes a tortured route to get it to you on the back of a Flintstone operated type of vehicle where they have no map or GPS either.
Shipped with expected delivery Thursday for me too. I got another mehrathon order today. I thought I was supposed to forget I had ordered something before I got it?
FedEx Smartpost.
Current Status - Departed Irving Texas Facility on 8/25
Current Delivery Date - Today 8/27
Unless the plane magically lands at my local USPS here on the east coast in the next 30 minutes there is no way i’m getting it today.
Shocked I got my FedEx notice!
mine too…
Will that update? Package seems weirdly small… It “arrived at Fedex location” supposedly already…
WEIGHT
1 lbs / 0.45 kgs
DIMENSIONS
6x4x1 in.
@datruandi Same. That’s the placeholder size and weight. Your dimensions will change (or not) before it get to you.
@ACraigL @datruandi Where do you see the shipping dimensions? I couldn’t find them anywhere.
Thank you meh for not using PB!!
@ACraigL @Kidsandliz click on the tracking number, and then again on the tracking number in what opens (up there) so you can see it on the Fedex website…
@ACraigL that’s what I thought, but I believe usually they would change when it hits the Fedex location. shrugs
Me too. That was so fast. I thought i forgot one from months ago that finally shipped.
Goodness. Fastest IRK ship ever.
Not sure what I’m happier about: my IRK shipping, or it dodging the Pitney Bowels of Hell.
Mine shipped too! and shipped fed ex, does this mean they are not using that rinky dink shipping service they used to use that involved the post office and took forever and the boxes looked like they went thru world war 3??
@futurian mine says the service is FedEx Smartpost. That means it’s ha ded off the the USPS for delivery, right?
@Stumpy91 FedEx seems to be delivering more of their Smartpost packages rather than handing them off to the USPS. Maybe you’ll get lucky, if you consider that lucky.
@Barney @Stumpy91 in my little corner of the world, FedEx only drops off P.O. Box deliveries. They were dropping a pallet or two everyday. The labels look the same.
Same and it’s teeny tiny.
Omg no PB!!!
Mine’s arriving Saturday! This sucks. I don’t get the months of anticipation, watching every tiny update on the Pitney Bowes tracking, wondering what city is next, and whether it’ll be closer or further from my city than the one before it.
@J5892 I had some packages show they were sitting in my city for three weeks before finally showing up from PB&Nightmare
@tyler524 My last one was “Out for delivery” every day for about 2 weeks.
@J5892 I’m not holding my breath for FedEx to be on time either. I just got two packages today that were supposed to be here this past Saturday.
@J5892 @RiotDemon We have had the same issues with Fedex around here. The local news even did a story about the local distribution center being a black hole for packages.
@J5892 don’t give them ideas
@tyler524 you don’t live by the Schertz, TX FedEx facility do you?
@djslack Nope, Detroit area
Ditto, and it’s supposed to arrive in 3 days? I’m confused!
I was expecting it to ship in a month or so.
I have the placeholder package info too.
Between getting a new bass and this, I think this week just picked up!
Last IRK came by Fedex also-fast and on time. Just got e-mail saying it has shipped with a Thursday delivery. So instead of waiting for a hurricane this week, am waiting for an IRK.
@Felton10 Saw what the 3 people who have already gotten them received-not impressed at all. In fact one guy got exactly the same stuff I got in my last IRK, except for one item. I am in for a huge disappointment.
@Felton10 disappointment or regret?
@Ignorant Regret that I ordered it-disappointment when I get it.
Same here. My IRK will be here before the more expensive headphones that I ordered during the Mehrathon. (The headphones are lost in PB land).
Edit: Oh my god, they may both be here by Thursday!!!
Uh-oh. We’re all getting a choice selection of leftovers from the morningsave style mehrathon aren’t we? Prepare for regret!
@bdp And you ever anticipated otherwise?
@bdp
Morningsave style Mehraton? When was this?
@bdp Yes-if they got them together and shipped out this fast they really have to be shit.
@bdp Oh nooooooooooo…
Both of mine will be here tomorrow. Do I believe that? Nah.
New record!
Shipped as well - PB Free…
Mine’s supposed to arrive on Thursday omg but it says it only weighs one lb.
@Room101 that’s just a placeholder.
I’m not even sure what to predict…shipped quickly enough that I don’t think I will get some warehouse dude just emptying the shelf and it was some pre staged IRK of a wireless headset, claw Crocs, maybe a coffee pot and a flashlight. Hope I’m wrong.
/giphy irk shipped today
@eonfifty that’s an “oh shit” moment if I’ve ever seen one
@Bandrik
Mine was inducted into the pitney bowes network today…
Unless that means it was too big to ship FedEx
@djslack Really? Wow, who did you tick off?
@djslack Or too heavy. Or both.
@djslack based on what the FedEx people are getting you might be winning the lottery here with your IRK even if PB takes a tortured route to get it to you on the back of a Flintstone operated type of vehicle where they have no map or GPS either.
Shipped with expected delivery Thursday for me too. I got another mehrathon order today. I thought I was supposed to forget I had ordered something before I got it?
I also am looking at a Thursday delivery. Hard to believe
/giphy unbelievable
Thursday delivery for me too via FedEx. Does this qualify as a some sort of miracle? Placeholder size and weight. Disappointment awaits.
@heartny I think it means that they are all going to be pretty crappy, just like the birthday IRKs.
Well, FedEx smartpost for me too. This service is used when the package is very lightweight. Grave disappointment is imminent.
Was shocked at how quick it shipped. Placeholder weight, but out for delivery today.
Out for delivery. Regret from last irk is still holding strong so not as hopeful here as fuko. We will see though.
FedEx Smartpost.
Current Status - Departed Irving Texas Facility on 8/25

Unless the plane magically lands at my local USPS here on the east coast in the next 30 minutes there is no way i’m getting it today.
@BillyIn4C UPDATE: I didn’t see any low flying planes this morning, so I don’t think i’m going to get it today. Also, no FedEx tracking changes.
Mine updated to 5.2 lbs and 14x11x10 in.
I’m always assuming it’s a foodsaver at this point. Should be here Monday.
@ACraigL food savers are nice . Instead assume something like 2k fidget spinners
@CaptAmehrican Based on my history of 4 IRK foodsavers, I’m sticking with foodsaver.
@ACraigL wow 4 foodsavers you are irk lucky
Mine hasn’t shipped yet…
… Because I’m not getting one.
@OnionSoup oh so it is in the same nonexistent irk I am getting
