Cypress Sun Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 As most everyone know, the USPS is running slower than normal....surprise, surprise Anyway, expect delays in receiving anything that was shipped USPS. I mailed some brass first thing in the morning on 12/09 to Kentucky. Mailed it Priority Mail/2 day....still hasn't arrived at it's final destination as of today 12/17. Just letting ya'll know. Patience is a virgin....or something like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Not Dead Ed Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Hellbender sent me some items on December 4, it says it is out for delivery today. other items got to the main office (Detroit) and have left there for my local to deliver for 4 days now. I suggest you register for Informed Delivery so you can at least see where it was last before it was lost... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dantankerous Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Same here. Sent four USPS packages, Priority Mail recently. Two arrived in 2 days, 2 took a week. AND one of the 2 late arrivals was going to the same address as another that arrived on time. They all got there though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cholla Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Same. Sent a pistol via an FFL on December 1st. Still shows that it is in our local PO. We called the PO and they said it left and will get there but COVID and the Holidays have everything going slow. I ordered parts from Amazon and they shipped on Nov 23rd. They arrived 12/15. I ordered parts and powder from Midway and they came in two days via UPS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warden Callaway Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 I'm still waiting for a package that was to be delivered August 25! Sawmill Mary had a package to be delivered by USPS yesterday. Then this morning it said it was revealed at regional center. UPS is using U-haul truck and apparently temp drivers in our area. I had a pistol come back from Spring Creek Armory last week. Heard something. Went to door and nothing there. Checked tracking and it said "delivery attempted will try next business day". Sent text to Sawmill Mary to watch for him on way home. She spotted a guy in Brown coming out of a house and locked him in. She asked for her package. He handed it over without showing I.D. or getting a signature. I checked trail cam and found he came down 10:13 and back out 10:14. The cam was 200 yards from the house. He only had time to turn around and leave. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyesa Horg Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 We sent out 3 identical packages Priority on 12/7 to the same area in Conn., one got there in 4 days, one in a week and the other is "still in transit". Wouldn't you think they would have stayed together like puppies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patience is a virgin....or something like that. Same here. sent priority mail with USPS mo on December 9 to pay for a purchase. Left our distribution center at 6 pm that day and that was the last tracking info as of this morning (December 17). I am praying for patience on the part of the seller and the quick arrival of our agreed on price. very frustrating Regards Gateway Kid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lumpy Grits from OK Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Feel the pain! I sent payment for some 32 pistols and a holster to two different pards in Ohio and it’s been 8 stinking days! I really want those 32’s and I am sure they want their money!

Hellbender Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 Yep.

John Kloehr Posted December 17, 2020 Share Posted December 17, 2020 A package from the other coast "disappeared" on the 7th, and "reappeared" last night, delivered to me today. Sent off two packages today, both priority mail, which should be delivered Monday, but "might take an extra four days" according to she who must not be ratted out for telling it like it is at the post office.

Chert Rock Chuck Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Same story here. Package hasn’t arrived and last known location in tracking was November 10th in Utah. On the 14th of November an update simply stated it was still on the way but would arrive later than expected. No further updates as of today.Considering this one is a loss at this point.

Buckshot Sheridan Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 I’ve got a new set of sharpening stones that took 2 days to get across the country and have been sitting in Phoenix for the past 8, waiting for delivery. New makers mark shipped on Monday from SC and is still sitting at the first post office on that end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the window, and the sender has to do it. You can start a search, which I have discovered seems to shake the trees a bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chert Rock Chuck Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 Yep. Sender has filed a claim. Sadly, it was an item I purchased here on The Wire. Non replaceable just stands to get whatever insured value may be. Would much rather have the goods than a refund.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now I am tracking 4 packages that have been sitting for 4 days in the Detroit central orifice , yet an item from Hellbender that sat for 2 weeks in Baton Rouge raced past another item I bought later, but was in Detroit earlier.... go figger..
