I once arranged an overnight shipment via DHL 4 days in advance of the my
deadline delivery date. It took DHL 5 days to make the delivery, with a
different story each day about where the package was and when it would
arrive. Never again.

As one from Colorado.... I loved DHL -- but only back before it merged
with Airborne. They were almost exclusively for overseas stuff, but
you
could reliably send and receive overnight stuff to almost anywhere in the
world....
Then came Airborne, which was bad service to start with. And what I
refer
to as "domestic DHL" was terrible. And to top it off, the overseas
delivery became terrible too... It's like DHL was great, but picked up
the
worst things from Airborne -- and there was a lot of worst to pick up...
And it wasn't just laptops... I remember one time ordering an emergency
fix tape from IBM. The tape was created at IBM Boulder, sent overnight
by
Airborne to a company in Pueblo CO (~150 miles south). Airbornes version
of
that was to overnight it (through their hub, whereever that was) to
Colorado
springs (about 1/2 way there), then drop it in first class mail to the
Pueblo company....
DHL overseas is almost back to what they were before Airborne...

Wow! We sorely hated DHL out west in Utah, Arizona, Colorado, Wyoming,

New Mexico.
Amen to that, Ray.
