DigiKey Order?

Discussions on anything related to the evolving idea of Saskatoon's first "makerspace". What is a makerspace to you? What should it be called? What's the charter?

Never ever use UPS if you can avoid it. Biggest scammers you'll find. :P
Yeah, don't accept the order if that's alright with Digikey. Maybe if they have enough trouble they'll go back to Purolator.

I think UPS has redone their list of services. I used to always look for Worldwide Expedited if I had to ship UPS. That's a crappy deal if that is no longer a duty free option. I say send it back and give them hell by phone and email.

I don't have anything time-sensitive in there, so no opposition from me on sending it back

I'm completely mentally challenged.

I ordered from the U.S. digikey website.....not the Canadian one.

I called UPS and digikey, and digikey tried to convince me that I couldn't refuse the package, so I argued and they relented. I called UPS and told them I was refusing the package based on their outrageous brokerage fee's, and they were cool and accepted that.

So now I'm going to re-order the parts now from the Canadian digikey website. Blah.

Haha, good job sticking it to the man! Even if it was your mistake in the first place. ;)

Actually, you can leave my parts out. I have changed my mind.

Sorry :( I ordered them this morning. They'll arrive on Monday (if I'd been a day earlier they could have been here today). :oops:
