DO NOT ORDER PERISHABLE SHIPMENTS FROM BAVARIA SAUSAGE. It's a shame to caution this because the products themselves are great. But the fact is that you are rolling the dice on getting your perishable products in safe condition. I ordered 300 dollars worth of sausage from Bavaria Sausage for an Oktoberfest party. As per instructions on the website, I made sure to order it with 2-day shipping. However, FedEx delivered my shipment late, on the third day. I opened the package within 5 minutes of it being delivered and all the sausages were outside the safe temperature range, and thus not safe to eat. I contacted Bavaria Sausage, and they said they would give me a partial refund on the product itself "as a gesture of goodwill" but would do no more for me because, though I ordered 2-day shipping, apparently FedEx gives itself 3 days to complete delivery, an important fact that is NOT made clear on Bavaria Sausage's website. They claimed that because they DO say on the website that they are not responsible for weather events (apparently my shipment was delayed because of wind), they were not under any obligation to refund my order. However, it is my feeling that if they know that 2-day shipping doesn't actually mean 2-day shipping, and they do not pack their perishable items to last through 3 days, they should make this clear on the website. The fact is that if you buy perishable items from Bavaria Sausage, you may be paying a substantial amount of money for food that you will have to throw away. And Bavaria Sausage will tell you, yeah, that sucks.
