Shipping Label Created, USPS Awaiting Item
ALPENA, MI 49707
A shipping label has been prepared for your item at 2:07 pm on November 10, 2020 in ALPENA, MI 49707. This does not indicate receipt by the USPS or the actual mailing date

whats odd is that how can it be 2:07 pm ,,,,,,,when its not even 1:07 eastern time..................at the time when I looked it up it was 12:55 pm central standard......................just wonky................wonder if they thought it was a trump vote in there.....lol.

Got nothing to with the USPS being backed up or slow. Its how the system is set up. 2:07 is likely the slated time for the item to be picked up from FNT.

I placed an order on the 5th, and received a message on the 9th, that it shipped.
Things happen, no worries here.

I placed an order on October 28th, and got my package yesterday. That’s the first time I’ve had a package take that long from them, guess you can’t blame them though.

Once the package leaves the trapping supply house, it is out of their control. Then it is up to ups or fedex or the post office . It is only going to get worse with the holidays coming up and more people shopping on line.

That's not USPS that's F and T . They didn't even get it ready to ship until the 10th

But I will say one thing in defense of usps . THEY ARE SWAMPED we have a lady that carries the mail and she said it used to take about 5 hrs to do her route ,. NOW it is 9-11 hrs. She said that 60-70 % of her stops now she has to get out to take a package to the porch. I feel for them. But some on here don't try to walk in thers shoes they just want to complain without thinking of the whole story .

PCS order I sent in last week was here less than 36 hours later. Fed ex. I’ve had great luck with FnT in the past too tho.

Shipping everything is all screwed up this year. If it’s even in stock!
