FedEx delays

Question

I had trusted FedEx, but
* in mid-February, a document sent from here to Tokyo by the fastest flight ( 2 days ) stopped in Anchorage, Alaska for a long time and was delivered a week late.
* Then a document from Tokyo, scheduled for delivery on March 10, was delivered on March 28. ( The condition of the envelope was black and stained on one side, and the printed FedEx letters
appeared to have been rubbed off somewhere to the point of being erased. )

The reason seems to be weather, but ( I have not been able to get a clear explanation )
It may be true that the cold February flights to Japan had no choice but to stop in Anchorage, but most flights from Japan in March were stuck in Memphis.

The flight to Japan in March was mostly stranded in Memphis. We happened to encounter this kind of situation twice, which made us feel uneasy about FedEx.
So I was wondering if this kind of thing happens more often than expected and would like to hear about your experiences.
I have been using this method of mailing with no problems at all, so I am very troubled.
Thank you very much.

Also, since I needed to send it back immediately, I asked for Kuroneko Yamato TA-Q-BIN, which does not offer a 2-day delivery service, but it was delivered safely within a week as scheduled.

Why sell used goods from all over Florida ?

Overall, the prices are not cheap. For example, tape decks. Double auto-reverse mechanisms are not
uncommon, and tapes themselves are a technology of the past. It is meaningless to talk about products for the Japanese market, where the voltage is different.
The buyer is responsible for shipping costs and any accidents during shipping. The photos show that the product looks very used.
Servicing used tapes is not a service at all. Even if it turns out to be faulty,
it is selfish of them not to accept return or refund. Used electrical goods are absolutely dangerous if you don't buy them
after carefully examining the actual product. How much does he think he can get for it if he takes it to a recycle store
? What kind of a selfish seller is this guy?

I think I uploaded this in the wrong place, but I fully "agree" with your opinion. I think that the seller has put the product on the market with a faint hope because there are many people in the world who collect such products and they have a certain value even if it is an electric product of the past technology.

I still have an old Sony Beta VCR. However, the rubber on the pulley that sends the rotational power from the motor to the FWD/RWD has become hard due to background changes and no longer works properly. When it started slipping, I could roughen the surface of the pulley with fine sandpaper and it would work again, but I have left it alone without doing that.

Now that I think about it, I'm in Japan ( Now I'm in Anoyo ) My father recorded the NHK program "Silk Road" with great enthusiasm and sent it here with music by Kitaro and commentary by Koji Ishizaka, which I still have somewhere in my garage. I wish I could have converted them to MP4 files and watched them anytime.

Yesterday and today, I was so excited to watch the Samurai Japan game that it was heartbreaking !

And the moment Otani took the mound in the top of the 9th inning ! I was so excited !
And the game against my teammate, Trout !

I was so excited and moved. I haven't felt so excited and moved so much recently...

I was so encouraged by the Japanese team's effort this time because of all the gloomy news like Corona, price hikes and wars... ! Congratulations And thank you ! !

Price hikes in Japanese food markets are not good ?.

The prices at markets that claim to offer "passionate prices" and the like are in an "all-you-can-eat" state. In Japan, people seem to be willing to raise prices even by a few percent, but Japanese foodstuffs at this market have doubled in price from a little while ago, or even increased by 100 percent, without hesitation. I guess they are trying to make up for the loss of revenue caused by the Corona disaster, but the fact that the number of shoppers has not decreased even at these prices suggests that sales are much higher than before the Corona disaster and revenue is increasing.
Even for locally manufactured and sold products, which should not be so expensive in terms of transportation costs and raw materials, the local Japanese and Japanese-Americans end up buying them no matter how expensive they are, so I feel that they are setting absurd prices in a state of so-called "hiked prices". ?
Of course, they are relatively modest in raising prices for necessities and prominent products because they would be exposed if they raise prices all at once, but even so, they raise prices many times in a short period of time.
When the store first opened after the acquisition, there were parts where I could see the business attitude of a Japanese company with the concept of cheap sales, but I wonder if they are changing their business attitude to one where they carry everything on a large scale, but the prices are high, but you buy it because you need it anyway ?. ? For those of us who eat mainly Japanese food, I was complaining about the business that makes me want to boycott them, which I cannot do even if I wanted to.

#154, indeed, indeed. Recently, there are more and more US markets that sell Chinese cabbage and cabbage, and of course I buy them there because they are fresh, but it's a hassle to go to several stores to buy that much, so I prefer to get it all at one place.
