Good Morning Gentlemen!

Change of pace this morning. A 'Who knows the USPS best' contest is in order.

I got a pkg shipping from Jupiter, Fl to the mighty metropolis here in the far north central part of Louisiana. Pkg was picked up by USPS Monday afternoon and according to USPS tracking, the pkg will be delivered by Friday , July 3rd, at 8 pm. Pkg is being shipped by ground priority mail.

Ok, looking for date and time of delivery. Will the pkg arrive early? Will the virus have any effect on the shipping? Or, will the USPS normal efficiency be the deciding factor? Will the holiday weekend be a factor?

First prize will be a 'Atta-boy'...... all other prizes will be an 'Ol Schit'. The number of 'Ol Schits' will be determined by the number of entries.

July 3rd.

The time your mailman usually passes by your house.

If it needs to be signed for, be home.

I wouldn’t expect it on either July 3rd (Independence Day Observed) or July 4th (Independence Day) as both days are USPS Holidays in 2020.

Expected Delivery Changes
Priority Mail’s two-day and three-day service commitments will be extended to three days and four days, respectively.
My gut is Mon. July 6th or Tues. July 7th. Ymmv.

I actually had a firearm delivered 1 day early yesterday by USPS.

Never had that happen before.

July 9, at 2 PM. The parcel will be routed through Denver.

I ordered five badger shave brush knots on Ebay, coming from China, that;s where the make them. I bought March 7, not here yet. Emailed the seller, he said he shipped them, the US government is holding them.

Don't get me started on those jokers. In April I sent a sizeable check to a dealer in PA for a 16 ga. over/under, which promptly disappeared into the ether. Ended up having to pay to cancel the check, and then pay a $50 credit card fee to pay him by plastic. Then I ordered a $200 item from a private seller, which was sent with a tracking number. According to the tracking number, it was delivered on May 12th, unfortunately it was not delivered to me, and whoever got it did not bother to give it to me. Seller says, see it was delivered......still trying to work with him....but at the moment I am out the $200.

I’m trying to stay away from anything made in China!

Never.

7/6

Had a package delivered two days early this week.

Have a Priority Mail package enroute with expected arrival the 3rd also. My source indicates open on the 3rd per normal Friday. It's in Billings now.

It just depends on how many laps it makes around Florida. I have a package coming from New Hampshire that has been making laps around that state for 5 days now.............

Pretty sure you got fugked.

You don't buy much, do you?

Same here.

I bought a shotgun barrel from a member in Illinois. It was shipped last Tuesday, tracking indicated that it would arrive on Friday, the 26th. The tracking info then only stated that the package was enroute to the next USPS facility, no location, no date of arrival. Today the tracking info says it's still in Illinois! Not the first such problem I've had with them this year.

I ordered one dozen traditional arrows from Past Archery their in Oregon I'm in CA. It took a week or better. Prolly sent them to New Hampshire first.

With the computers of today, if they say it has been delivered, they can also tell you where it was delivered. I've used that before to get a package that was mailed to me.

Find out who screwed up!!!!!
