Title: USPS express still sitting at origin?
Post by: harpua25 on December 27, 2011, 11:02 pm
A trusted seller who I won't name because it wasn't their fault sent my order USPS Express from one of the coasts to me in the middle of the country on the morning of Dec. 24.  The "guaranteed" delivery date was today at 3pm, but the last entry on the tracking site is "dispatched to sort facility in [origin city], Dec. 24."

Anybody seen anything similar?  Should I be worried, or just pissed (at USPS, not the seller)?

i would blame USPS for going really slow right now. but there is always a chance i got lost or something. i would be more pissed off than worried honestly, but you never know bro. sorry bro =(

It's fucking agonizing, regardless of what the problem is.  So much for "guaranteed overnight delivery."  >:(

Anyone have any trouble with USPS Express deliveries since Christmas? I need to know what's going on right now before I start ordering stuff.

USPS sux cock. They are a job program for minorities and slow folks. If you paid for Express then you should demand the money back. Express mail is guaranteed they even deliver on Sunday and some holidays.

After waiting until after the "guaranteed" delivery date (Dec. 27) and there were no updates since the city of origin I broke down and called around USPS, including my local postmaster.  Nobody had any idea where it might be until this morning, when it was scanned as it arrived at the regional hub (about 70 miles from me). 

The local postmaster told me it wouldn't make it until tomorrow afternoon at the earliest, so I said fuck it, asked him to find out exactly where it was and drove to the regional hub to pick it up. Nobody's busted down my door yet, fwiw.
