USPS, you just have to laugh

[tRidiot]

I've got two packages I ordered through Poshmark (hey, it's shoes for The Wife, ok?). one from AZ, dropped Nov 30th, another from Cali dropped off on the 1st. Both somehow are now delayed.

Meanwhile, numerous packages this week through UPS with accurate tracking, data and delivered on time without hiccup.

Lol! Ordered some goods from RTGParts in Wyoming November 26th. It finally went out for delivery here today and USPS said delivered @ 3:49pm. Guess what? No package. I’m gonna go with UPS with signature from here on out unless there is a better way? Really sucks.....

USPS is running 2-7 days late on my last 10 or so packages over the last 2'weeks.

Don't quote my but I think it's Primary Arms that does this.
When you go to check out, USPS is the cheapest shipping option but they actually discourage you from using it, something about lack of tracking IIRC.

My apologies, happens my daughter came by my house and got the package and didn’t tell me To the mail carrier!

I’m not too happy with them either. I got burned on a sale here on OSA when I sent a “signature required” package. The carrier didn’t get a signature, left the package who knows where. To be fair, I did mix up two of the numbers on the address. The receiving address was two doors down from the actual address. The guy who was supposed to receive the package said he knew this neighbor and and after checking with them they said they never received it. The only thing the postmaster said was that it was a new carrier and IF it was found, they’d let me know. I had to refund $200.00 to the buyer.

Honestly I don’t know if there’s a black hole in the post office or I got scammed.

This covid has everything messed up in the shipping world. Our rural carrier has to make two to three trips back to the Post Office to load up the back of here full size pickup bed and back seat with boxes.
It's just something we will have to deal with for awhile.

I can only imagine working at USPS or any other delivery company this year with COVID and record online ordering. Employees are allowed to call in more leniently and the system is overwhelmed with packages. I’ve got a FedEx package containing a Play Station PS5 coming today. Shows it left Hutchins, TX at 3:03 am in the tracking. I’ll leave the porch light on but I’m not betting on it getting here today. Neither rain, nor snow.....oh wait, that’s USPS. A little secret, it’s nobody these days. Tomorrow will be the busiest delivery day of the year for packages and weather certainly won’t help. I hope I’m surprised.

The correct address is always helpful. [emoji12] If it was undeliverable and if your return address was on it you should have had it returned.
