    I had recent nitemares with the USPS as well. A med. flat rate box shipped insured (which includes tracking) "4-5 days" expected delivery. 21 days later it arrived at its final destination and the tracking info STILL showed it had not left my mailing facility.
    Talking to anyone at the post office was just exactly like talking to any other gubbiment agency... nobody could tell me a **** thing about

    Since I dissed the usps above, I thought it only fair to include my latest experience. Sold 50# of lead on ebay, to go to CT. Mailed it in a medium flat rate on Monday, and it arrived, undamaged and delivered to the house by a 95 lb female carrier yesterday afternoon. Guess there are still a few 'worker bees' around the postal service...
