I made two orders from hunting dog supply companies back on March 12. One from Lion Country Supply who shipped via UPS. That order arrived in three days.
The other order was from Gun Dog Supply. They sent it through the USPS. It went through various regional postal facilities from Masiston Missouri to Baton Rouge Louisiana to Saint Rose Louisiana to Warrendale Pennsylvania to Lehigh Valley Pennsyvania which is only forty minutes from me.
Great I thought, it will be here tomorrow. Nope, they sent it from the Lehigh Valley all the way out to Columbus Ohio twelve hours away. Then on to Groveport Ohio where it is currently "moving through the netwoork."
No expected day of arrival has been posted in the six days since it left Gun Dog Supply's warehouse so I have no idea when it might show up.
It was forty minutes away...SMH
Eh...wot?

I just had a conversation with someone at Gun Dog Supply. They told me they have an "Anything But Postal" shipping option. I told them I wished I'd known about it because I certainly would have chosen it. This isn't the first time the USPS has shipped packages to me via the most indirect routes imaginable.
They are going to call USPS and try to find out what is going on. They also offered to reship the order. I declined for now.
I told them I would continue to buy their product because hey are top notch.
From now on I will be choosing the "Anything But Postal" shipping option.
Eh...wot?

Sounds like there are some real competency issues with USPS upper management.

USPS, complete joke, said this morning on the NBC network, USPS, supposedly to run out of money next year. Ordered a part I needed seller, only usues USPS, couldn't fimd anywhere.Ordered it, 2 weeks ago, got within 50 miles, USPS, sent back to ST Louis, last tracking I got was in NJ, going back to somewhere, same loacation last 6 days. My local postmaster, told me yesterday It's in a no person, warehouse, only automated bouncing back, and back. She's trying to get someone, to locate it. Have quit buying from venders, that don't have options, for shipping. UPS, FeDEx, cost more but I get packages in 3 days, USPS, 1 800 number, you might as well call Russia and ask Putin over for lunch

My wife ordered two king-size bedspreads for our new ( to us ) camp trailer . One from Amazon, it came in 3 days
One from chinamart . It took two weeks .
I live on a dead in road , and a driveway about 500 ft long . I came home yesterday and up by the house was a beat up mini van , one side window was made of cardboard . I boxed him in for a minute thinking wt ....frejoles....is going on here ? ....the dude had long hair and a full set of gold teeth . His wife got outta the car and pushed it backwards about 30 ft . I got out of my truck to confront him and he says " I got no re- burse " .....about that time the wife comes outta the house and says they delivered a bedspread ..... wth
Is this how they give there customers free shipping ?

Ask Keith about some plants I sent him...LOL, Dormant when I sent them, after they came back TWICE to my post office from Ohio they had grown about 6" inside the box.
The issue is the USPS scanners are reading return addresses rather than recipient addresses and sending stuff back. Leastways that's what my postmaster says.
My fear of moving stairs is escalating!

USPS should have sadly been dissolved years ago. All post offices could have just been sold to Dollar General. Saw a Facebook post the other day of a lady that lived 60 miles from a location where 3 exact same envelopes were mailed to her on the same day. One got there in 7 days the last one got there in 20 days, (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman). I had a package get from Utah to KC in 2 days, then sat in KC for 7 days before they delivered it the last 60 miles. (This word is unacceptable on Trapperman)
I have a old box Post Marked in 1961 that my Great Grandpa received some reloading components in from a store in KC to his little town 7 hours away. Got there in 2 days according to the notes on the box. His name and the town he lived in was the only address needed at that time.
