    Woo-hoo! I just got my M1 iMac! But, hey, @Apple & @FedEx, WTF? No signature was required, and the computer was left on the porch while my wife and I were out! There was no way to redirect the delivery "because of the pandemic." Fortunately my wife got home earlier than expected.

        Seriously, what would my recourse have been if a porch pirate had taken the computer during the couple of hours it sat on the porch? I have a security camera, but most porch pirates are smart enough at least to cover their faces.

        I mean, I appreciate @FedEx delivering a couple of days earlier than expected, but getting a message on the morning of delivery, too late for any change in plans given that I was in clinic and my wife had business, with no clear way to postpone or redirect it? Not cool.

        In the past, when ordering iPhones or other electronics, I'd redirect the delivery to the nearest @fedex store, but there was apparently no way to do that this time.

        I feel you, it was very similar when I got my new computer and then later my cell phone

        When the M1 MacBook Pro is released and I order it, I'm going to have to look to see if there's a way to ship it to the nearest FedEx Store right off the bat.

        There's usually a way to redirect the shipment to another location unless you're Best Buy and specifically chose the shipping method that wouldn't allow that when I bought my phone.

        There was not, at least not on the app or the website. Maybe I should have tried calling, but who has time to wait for a customer support person?

        They did the same thing to me. Luckily, I was home and found it. Enjoy the new computer! That’s what I got and it’s lightning fast!

        Windows > Mac. iPhone > Android. Not sure why 🤔
