These stupid "Fedex Smartpost" and "UPS Basic" methods that are slower, more expensive and use USPS for final delivery don't want PO Boxes, but what damn difference does it make when they're not delivering it?

Google didn't come up with much.

1. I'd try calling the seller and talk to them about getting USPS service
Instead of half and half or about upgrading the shipping method so things are not handed over to USPS.

I've been aggravated by the same thing - I don't normally get USPS deliveries at my street address but when the seller does not tell you which way the package will be delivered, some things have been left in the street box. Fortunately the current mail carrier is conscientious - she's brought larger items to the house. The previous carrier left boxes leaning up against the box or at some random building on the farm. The box is a problem since it is not visible from anywhere on the farm and is not at all secure.

My preferred place to order computer parts is New Egg. They have always used FedEx all the way to the door. But I have not ordered much recently and I know shipping methods have changed.
