USPS really is snail mail

[MQ32Shooter]

I hate the post office. I ship and receive antique clocks. Every time someone ships me anything with glass in it via USPS, it arrives broken. Never, ever had that happen with FedEx which is my shipper of choice.

I've had decent luck with USPS. Maybe they lost your package?

I went to pick up a package this morning and they have the side door for package pickup and Mail hold. I rang the doorbell and after a couple minutes, rang again. I then started getting in line and the guy at the counter said keep ringing it. It took another two rings for them to get to the door. I saw inside and there was 2 people standing 8 feet from the door. I would say I was baffled, but then I realized where I was.

They sent me a survey. Probably a waste of time but I'll fill it out

Here's my current one. It says it's still en route but I received it 2 hours ago. From Twin Falls, ID. to Waxahachie in 2 day. Not too shabby!

I just received 3 different packages from 3 different locations. I ordered them on Friday last week out of Pennsylvania and Indiana. All packages said expected delivery date this coming Friday and next Monday. I was surprised to say the least. Maybe I just keep getting lucky?

I sent an regular mail envelope with a money order from Jasper, Tx. to Vermont last Tuesday and it still hasn't arrived (9 days). How long should I wait until I ask the PO about whether or not the MO was cashed? The recipient is a friend of mine and I know he wouldn't jerk me around. With all the delays, I'm getting a bit concerned if the envelope was hijacked. I still have the Money Order receipt and Post Office receipt.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Still no change. Going on 10 days...

[Tmill]

Call the facility it is at. Should be able to get something done.

USPS tracking is worth nothing, for the most part. Just go by the 'delivered by' date. It is far from being real time, have even seen it 6 days off & I have the item in my hand already! 'Delivery date' is what you should look @.

Delivery date is useless as well.

I had a hunter ship his trad archery equipment over from the Netherlands.

When I shipped it back to him he didn't hear anything from them for six months. I did some research and the USPS found the package in a warehouse in Houston. We figured it was lost forever.

About two years ago my office received a letter marked return to sender from 1983. Lost for over 30 years. I'll see if I can dig up the picture we took of it.

So how long are yall waiting before you call and start to raise a stink? Even though I'm not completely sure it would do anything.
