August 27.

I sent an item to Fiddy of Ca. on the 12th of August. He has not seen it yet. This was USPS, and insured. You might want to keep that in mind when you ship something.

I had a rifle sit in a Detroit USPS distribution center for over 3 weeks about a month ago. It finally arrived at Eddies. Good thing I paid for Priority

Shipped a rifle July 30th from Boise to NY. Scheduled delivery Aug 6. It arrived Aug 24th. No intermediate tracking scans.

I’ve had a string of bad luck the last six months on sending checks out the guys for stuff. Either they don’t receive the check and I have to send out another one.Pisses me off.

nothing new... USPS has been running slow all summer due to everything going on. As like others above, I've had two packages sit in spots for 3-5 weeks at a time with no updates. Then it moves and it shows up one day. Now when I mail something priority, the person tells me expected X and X day but it's usually taking longer. I've used FedEx ground a lot lately, pricing is about the same and been quicker.

It has improved somewhat in the past couple weeks--and they're being more honest about when priority stuff might arrive. But it's still not performing like it did before present Postmaster General took over.

I ordered a refrigerator a week and a half ago, and I've still not heard a thing about it even being in transit to our local store.

I had a package sit in Detroit for almost a month and the only update I got said something like, “This shipment has been delayed indefinitely due to protest activity.”

It finally made it, but it was about a month after the expected delivery date.

A member shipped me some bullets on 8/25 and I got them today 8/27 from VA. This is not the normal for sure priority or not.

I have shipped several packages to guys here on the forum recently, always Flat Rate Priority insured with tracking. I haven't experianced any extended delays so far.
Knock on wood.
