I’ll be the naysayer. I ordered from Tydes last week and still haven’t received my order. According to them, they dropped it at a different post office than they usually use because it was on their way to where they were going. Lol. My package hasn’t moved in 4 days, and it had bac water in it. If’s being “held for exception” due to a weather delay. What weather? Charlotte wasn’t hit by Helene and none of the areas within 400 miles of me have been hit by so much as a rainstorm within the last 2 weeks. I just had another package delivered today that came from NY and went through Charlotte no problem. The issue I think is that it got routed to some podunk office and is now sitting there until… idk when.
It was my first time ordering from them, and even though they’ve been responsive throughout this whole fiasco, there’s no way I’d ever do business with them again. They don’t take credit card like Skye, so if my package never arrives, I’m just SOL and trusting that they’ll honor the amount I’ve paid them by sending out another one.
Having a package worth several hundred $$$ lost in the wind because it was on their way to the next errand stop doesn’t seem like the best way to run a business. Especially not with the prices they charge. I was thinking about ordering from Skye, but naturally, I’ve been put off US vendors by this experience. My package from CN has cleared customs and will likely be here before the one from Tydes for 1/5 the price lol.
