    Hey all,

    Well, to make a long story short, my bro-in-law wanted a xbox and I found a good price through dell. Now the problem is that the tracking number is not standard to any carrier that I know of. I know this is a notebook only forum, and I am sorry, but he is in Afghanistan now and I just wanted to get it to him soon.

    I tried UPS, DHL, Fedex, and Pilot. I tried to ask Dell, but of course there system is down for the next 3-4 hours (as per the rep).

    8W090E03019*****

    *=removed numbers

    So, any ideas?

    Well, guess what - dell "forgot" to put on the 1Z before the 8W. So in short its being shipped UPS and it will be here soon. Just letting everyone know just in case it happens to someone else.

    Thats the first thing I used so it can scan all the carriers at once. I love that tool :)
