I ordered a Garmin Xero C1 since they are were on sale for $140 off. The order was placed on Aug 14. Still hasn't shipped. Here is what I get from them today.

They want $120 to ship the thing saying its a Hazmat item. LMAO

I will be ordering directly from Garmin, with FREE shipping.

Unfortunately its classed as haz because it has a lithium battery.

It's almost definitely excepted quantity, and even if it weren't, buddy is lying about FedEx not shipping DG.

Lithium batts are code E0 and dont have excepted quantities though. FedEx can ship DG but you if you are a business you have to have a dangerous goods contract set up with FedEx to do so. That being said, usually FedEx will ship things like laptops and phones that are UN3481 without a DG contract so long as the packaging meets the standard, I see no reason why this couldntt have shipped but I dont have all the details and dont want to speculate too much.
