MOW: Alright I was critical of the usps when they AGAIN bungled an easy (but EXPENSIVE!) task this week - so now I have to give them a bit of credit. I mailed a small package 8 days ago to my friend in Maple Valley taxington from here in SW Montana a distance of 605 road mile - it arrived safely today. I realize the usps is busy (but way over paid!) and it is hectic this time of year but a small first class package only making 75.6 miles per day is, IMO, slow! Anyway I thank them for getting it there safely (insured for $100.00) if in a somewhat slow manner. Good luck all fellow "mailers". Hold into the wind VarmintGuy
My biggest gripe is they have suspended Priority shipping time claims, so they (USPS) know they can't get Priority mail/packages delivered on time (they even send you disclaimer saying this). They need to stop Priority service...stop charging for Priority service when you know you can't delivery on time. They should only be charging flat rate right now.
