Meh's new shipping procedures bite the big one
3Who knows where in the hell the stuff is now and when it will get to you. Ordered my poo pillows before my IRK-have my IRK and who in the hell knows where my poo pillows are. You know how shit starts to degrade when it sits around.

I haven’t minded. It seems a bit faster than FedEx smart post.
I ordered something from eBay that also came parcel select. It went from new Jersey to Puerto Rico before it came back to Florida. That amused me.
@RiotDemon That’s a new one…
@PooltoyWolf @RiotDemon But you could track your purchase with FedEx. I’m expecting the same emoji pillows and I haven’t received an update since 4/10/19. Let’s hear it for USPOS!
I like the big Meh logo on the envelope.
My last two orders came pretty quickly, but I did notice that there was a long gap in the tracking data during the hand-off from the shipper to the USPS. In fact, there was never an acknowledgment of the transition and it went from "Departed Shipping Partner Facility, USPS Awaiting Item " to “out for delivery at local office” over the span of 2 days with no steps in between.
But, as I mentioned, both my last orders arrived at my house rapidly (in < a week), which is much better than it used to be.
Of course… YMMV.
My two-fer bidets I recently ordered are already here.
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@therealjrn My poo pillows are still floating around Texas. Now I know they like shit in Texas having elected Ted Cruz again, but this is ridiculous. I want my Poo pillows.
@Felton10
Don’t like it…change is not always good
I hate the new shipping. Even with @Ignorant’s magic tracking site, http://tracking.newgistics.com, I can’t follow my orders as well as I did before. And I WANT THE SHIPPING WEIGHT ON MY IRKs!!
@Barney Answer:
/giphy not enough
@therealjrn I am going to ignore you, I am on a rant.
And why in the hell are my orders going to Indiana for a few days and then coming all of the way back to Kansas? Who is the genius who figured out this route?
@Barney My guess is that Indiana is still their closest sorting depot to Kansas, hence its extra travels.
@Barney @narfcake It goes to Indiana before coming to Mississippi as well. Sat there around 4 days. Added about 1700 extra miles. Wastes fuel too.
@narfcake I still don’t like it. grumble grumble
@Barney @Kidsandliz Newgistics facilities are located in:
For me, SmartPost (FedEx) has been pretty fast since they have a facility one city over from where I live. SurePost (UPS) can be even faster if UPS has other deliveries in my neighborhood. The other mail consolidating services, like DHL and Newgistics, have been slower.

/image this!
@Barney @medz @therealjrn as a stockholder in the company who owns newgistics…thank you everyone for your purchases!!! i absolutely concur on the lack of visibility … I can’t remember which other vendor shipped using newgistics, and there was sooo little info on their site, very annoying.
I live in texas…I have no issues…carry on…
@amehzinggrace Living in Texas IS an issue.
@amehzinggrace @Barney On the other hand living in
OzKansas … well lets just say as the tornadoes were coming through here (still several hours to go) a friend of mine sent me a photo of her on the couch with Dorothy’s red sparkly shoes on and the weather station in the background. Actually my niece loves Manhattan KS and is moving back there in June.@Barney @Kidsandliz I’ve been seeing that pic all over fb this evening…its good for a laugh…
@amehzinggrace I am confused-will the border wall keep people out of Texas or keep people in Texas from entering the rest of the US?
@amehzinggrace @Barney Hmm since there is no face in that photo maybe she is only claiming it as her LOL. I do know she was in one of the tornado warning areas…
@amehzinggrace @Felton10
Re Texas: Be confused!
We’re patient.
/giphy Texas!
My Instant Regret Kit arrved today and the box looked like it was first used for soccer practice and then used as a chair in the bus on the ride home.
This is leaving me “less than confident” in ordering something that I actually hope to get not beat to shit…
No one has mentioned that none of the boxes contain the bags of Texas air-maybe that is why all the boxes look like they have the shit beat out of them.
Looks like switching to this cut rate shipper was almost as bad an idea as removing the calendar.
/giphy wait wait
It never even showed that it got to Grapeturd Texas and now it shows it just left York PA. My shit is on the way. Better get close to the bathroom in case it comes early.
Finally got a shipping confirmation for my IRK. When I looked at the tracking, it says it was picked up on April 5th and it’s due for delivery tomorrow. There were no updates at all until today. Needless to say, I’m not too impressed with this shipping company so far.
@cinoclav The updates suck also-last one showed it was arriving in York, PA. Next one said it was out for delivery. Three updates in total.
@Felton10 Not to mention, my box was crushed and partially open.
My IRK was shipped on 4-5 and has yet to reach Minnesota, It has been in Carol Stream, Ill for the last 4 days. They removed the estimated delivery date from the tracking info a week ago. I am convinced it is lost…
@futurian Probably not lost… The boxes seem to take the scenic route and then the company seems to leave the box to sit places so it can secretly be on vacation… thus limited to no updates, or as in my case showing it was still in IN when it was already delivered in MS (changed to delivered shortly there after though).
still no update on the tracking, my IRK was shipped 12 days ago…
tomorrow it will be 2 weeks since my IRK shipped and it has not moved now in 8 days
The new labels mess my address up and one of my packages has been lost. fun times
@riceatusc Yeah, I forgot to mention that the address was so difficult to see, they had written down the house number in marker on the box. Except they wrote down my neighbor’s address. I don’t know if the neighbor dropped it off or the mailman actually got it right since it was sitting on the table outside my door when I got home.
@cinoclav I think that is the post office that writes it in marker. I just got lucky that I had an amazon package coming and the mail main saw they my packages had the same name. He pointed out the label issue to me
@cinoclav @riceatusc without disclosing your addresses, what was the issues?
it is now 14 days since my IRK shipped and it has not moved on the usps tracking in 9 days. the newgistics tracking info that was finding it as of yesterday , now says that the tracking number is invalid. at what point is it considered lost?
@futurian two suggestions. Go to your local post office with the tracking number. Write into meh.com/support Support will take a few days to get back to you.
it is now 16 days since my IRK shipped and 11 days since it has moved on the tracking. Meh customer service will not do anything until the 29th???
