P.O. Box

[Miami Bomb Squad]

Has anyone used a P.O. Box to receive Items from Lego S@Home?
What are your thoughts?

I wouldn't do it... from their shipping policy page:

• Orders shipping to a P.O. Box will be delivered via US Postal Service and will not have order tracking available.

FedEx is their preferred carrier.  FedEx does not ship to P.O. boxes.

pobox shipping should have usps tracking number. this sounds a bit weird. personally i would rather have it come to my house than dealing with USPS on pickup. i see enough of them already during last quarter of the year that i dont need extra aggravation.

FedEx does ship to PO Box only if you select "Ground" and the label just print it out.

They always ship my orders Priority Mail to my PO. No tracking though.

My orders get cancelled if I try to ship to my P.O Box

My orders get cancelled if I try to ship to my P.O Box

Have you asked them what is the reason for your cancellations?

I'm in Canada, and they ship via FedEx from the states. Figured that was why, since FedEx doesn't deliver to P.O boxes

My Po Box is located in a Shoppers DM & I've received FedEx shipments there on several occasions (usually rolls of automotive vinyl &/or computer parts), the staff knows me by name so they will accept it if the FedEx driver takes it to them, more often than not thou the FedEx packages go back to depot to await pickup/redirection.  I haven't ordered from TLG .ca in a few years thou since they changed their policy not to ship to Po boxes (Also since the US TLG  .com no longer ships to a 3rd party freight receivers like UPS store or MyUS)
