I sent a box of coffee to Toronto Feb.7... it went to Chicago, spent a couple days in San Antonio, back to Chicago and is now in Canada. Wish I could get a free trip to somewhere warm..."I could've had a Mi Querida!" Nick Bardis8

Got delays here too. Birthday present I ordered 2 weeks ago has been delayed another week.“Happiness? A good cigar, a good meal, a good cigar and a good woman – or a bad woman; it depends on how much happiness you can handle.” – George Burns1 -
I have now had USPS scan 3 different packages containing cigars as delivered, which never showed up. Every single time I've complained they will not get past the "It shows delivered..." part of the conversation. I havn't smelt any of my neighbors enjoying the smokes yet, so I have to assume they never even got that far.

I've had a couple of those and the odd thing is, they showed up almost a week later.Wylaff said:I have now had USPS scan 3 different packages containing cigars as delivered, which never showed up.

Pretty F'd up when you have something sent "guaranteed" over night and something sent priority mail and the priority mail makes it there first.In Fumo Pax

I had a little old lady, (yea, who am I calling old) deliver a box of cigars that USPS "Delivered" to the house. Pretty much any other time of year that house would have been vacant and those cigars would have sat there and cooked.Wylaff said:I have now had USPS scan 3 different packages containing cigars as delivered, which never showed up.

And yet again, USPS proves how inept they are.
5 packages mailed out on the same day.
All 5 were sent 3 day mail.
it's been 4 days and 1 out of 5 has made it to it's destination/
The furthest freakin one!!
And one has only made it 100 miles. WTF?
Not the closest one, but the furthest one on the east coast.And people are wondering why half the nation didn't trust mail in ballots.
It's because USPS can't deliver a freakin package 100 miles, let alone anywhere else.In Fumo Pax

Ah, but the last time I tried first class I found out you can’t do it from your smartphone - gotta be on a computer.... 👴🏻
Also can’t print your mailing labels from your smartphone because the bar code doesn’t print. The rest of the label will print, but no bar code.

I print all my mailing labels from my smartphone. You can ship first class from your computer? If you can do that, you should be able to do it for me smartphone. Just request the desktop version of the website

Theere has always been a bottleneck around the holiday season and this year with tons of folk shopping on-line, and it isn't just USPS....

I had a sure post shipment spent 10 days somewhere in KC doing the UPS to USPS
hand-off, neither was any help finding it.UPS, deliver to post office for final delivery, post office hasn't seen it. Then one day it miraculously appears. Was sure someone was enjoying my cigars.
Nice Necro....timelyDon't let the wife know what you spend on guns, ammo or cigars.

I found out the Reno hub and Los Altos hub have the sorting bins side by side in both locations. It is not uncommon for a box to go back and forth between the 2 a couple of times before finding the right pile.

I've always had to print First Class labels from PayPal, the USPS site doesn't let you pay for first class postage online AFAIK. There's probably other ways to print first class besides PayPal.
Anyone have a good lead on boxes about the size of a small flat rate for first class? The nice thing about priority mail is the free shipping materials.

The UPS/USPS mode is downright crazy. UPS is about 3 miles SE of my house. USPS is 6 miles NW.
Guess what drives by, a block from my house for the USPS hand off? Then takes another day or two to be deliveredLogistics cannot win a war, but its absence or inadequacy can cause defeat. FM100-51 -

So the monolith I mailed my sister in Riverside got delayed almost a week. But this morning it was finally delivered:
So that's a relief.

Saw a great offer on Amazon: a new iPad 8 for a mere $319. Not available to ship because of backlog until Jan 1st. Old lady wants one. I thought I'd sleep on it. By next day, the backlog was mid January. Bought one. Delivery scheduled for Jan 18th.
Got an email notice this morning: arriving today.
Amazon gets customer service. Helps that we live in range of their own fleet of trucks. Don't have to hand packages to USPS round here. Love Amazon. This time of year, they have ppl driving delivery in their own cars.
