Placed a couple of orders recently, one originating in the Midwest that requires a delivery signature and an ID because its powder and primers and the other order from the Northwest that doesn't require a signature, both orders shipped using FedEx. The Midwest order has been delayed at every leg 4 separate times, the Northwest order, placed days after the first one but arriving essentially the same time, no problems. I get the impression that the delays on the powder/primer order are intentional and I don't recall having to show an ID on similar orders in the past, this is all kind of Orwellian, is this the new reality? What's next, a knock on the door by GMen in black suits and sunglasses with my name on a list because I'm a handloader?
Stop the conspiracy ideas; I get shipments all the time without drama. Check the carrier's rules, and check how it was sent. Shippers can request signatures.
