Shipped from Tennessee from Jan 2-Jan 5th to SF CA from Jan 5th-Jan 9th. Still in SFCA. No movement. USPS says Jan 17 delivery date. What's up with that! Lies, Lies and more lies from Jeff Bezos. Charging him for wire fraud. He's a crook.

They still have to improve a lot but they provide the best service for the price! Their service is inconsistent at times but I feel this is dependent on the particular office. Unlike many other companies, they still deliver on weekends at the same price.

Numerous times items were not delivered on the date the tracking says they will be, and then the system tells you the delivery will be delayed. It is in the local P.O. here in Davenport, Iowa. I've had items received in all kinds of semi-destroyed conditions as well. No one ever takes any responsibility for anything either.

I spent $160 for two packages send in early On first week of December, what a shock I got the present was in post office for to pick it up on 27 of December. It is overpriced and not even deliver. International parcel will false text you that they try to deliver in fact there was not attempted at all. They just didn’t wish to deliver in CZ. Lower the price!!! Improve your services!! Refund money if your package is not be deliver in home by 7 days! Not in post office!!!

I am convinced USPS only hires the most incompetent of people to work for them. I had a package shipped to me on the 17th. The tracking information says it is supposed to be delivered today. Well, today has come and gone and no package. The tracking information is stuck with a useless "in transit" update that tells me nothing. I have no idea where my package is now thanks to these morons. Who knows if I will even receive it now, given this sorry excuse for a mail delivery service's track record. If only USPS had intelligent people working for them, maybe they would have a better reputation.

The customer service is very weak. Usually 1h waiting time to get somebody on a phone (If luckily you manage to reach someone). My parcel was and is still stuck at the customs and apparently I have to contact the customs myself which is totally incorrect (definitely not my responsibility).

When given the choice I always choose USPS. I have always received my packages on time (or early) and in good condition. In some cases, I have even received them on a Sunday (Amazon) without asking for expedited shipping. The prices are usually better than the competitors and I know they are a company I can trust.

They have excellent tracking and fast shipping - faster than UPS and way faster than FedEx. FedEx is probably the worst. UPS ground is slow too. USPS is always on time and always lets you know that the package arrived unlike UPS and FedEx who just leave things on your doorstep in the weather.

Filed a complaint on a package, says late when paid for 2 day, email from them but I requested at least a partial refund, no response. I understand things happen, but when you pay $23 for two day and get delay of 5 days beyond. Something should be done to resolve the issue.

USPS tends to be good. Better before privately managed. My packages take longer than advertised or paid for in advance. Priority mail/package. One to South Carolina took over a week. Maybe due to weather, do not know. Unable to get updates aside from package sitting somewhere. Overall, the intention is good, however, follow through, IS NOT.

USPS lost my insured international parcel over six months ago. When one calls they will be directed from one place to another including customs, which has no more responsibility once it has cleared American customs. Finally came full circle with no one else left to contact but the postal director in Washington DC which I am in process of doing. Postal service needs to take more responsibly.

I use USPS regular because they're convenient to where I live. Service at the P.O.is always good and prices are good as well. I have rural mail delivery in a mobile home community and our/my biggest problem with that is, the carriers. As regular people they are fine but as far as their work ethic and quality of service goes, they are lacking. They mix up our mail and often I get others mail and vice versa. Post Master doesn't seem too concerned about that and only suggests we bring the incorrect mail back to the P.O. for re-delivery and has mentioned getting a PO Box to avoid such issues.

Christmas I sent out several packages. Some return receipt. I've never had anything in all the years of doing this, not arrive. One to go to my best friend who is a senior and just lost her husband to Alzheimer's. This was a very special gift. It never arrived!! I've put in a notice to them and have not heard back. It's been more than 7 days as they said. It was expensive, a Coach purse. Tracking said it had arrived, but it never did. Why would I need insurance if the P.O. was at fault? I trusted their service.

They don't deliver Sundays even if there is a front door guard. I had next day delivery from Amazon and it happened to be Sunday. They came to the building but because I have front desk security the door was locked. They did not attempt to find the guard to deliver. Amazon shouldn't use them for prime time deliveries.

The Corporate Hills Post Office 67207 refuses to deliver my packages. When I pay shipping charges it is fair to expect to get what I paid for, delivery. Instead, this post office just delivers slips of paper telling me to pick it up myself. When I call they say they will not deliver packages to me, indefinitely. They insist that I take time off work and drive to their post office and pick up my mail myself.

I was to receive a package, roughly around the first week of this month. USPS claims they tried to deliver my package but could not find a “secure location.” I find this strange as I had given them the door code for my apartment building. Anyway, I had to reschedule the delivery but this time USPS did not deliver the package at all! I called customer service, through Amazon, because I couldn’t get through on my own and they established a connection. The USPS representative gave me a case number and said I would be contacted to get the package sent out.
Well guess what...no one ever contacted me! So, once again I had to call Amazon and receive their assistance. The Amazon representative sent me another item but unfortunately it was sent through USPS again. The package was tracked all the way until late Friday night where the tracking information says package will still be shipped tonight but it is almost 10:00 pm where I live. So, needless to say I called Amazon again and had a refund processed. I would to only have my items shipped through UPS, or FedEx but unfortunately that isn’t my choice to make!

2nd day delivery did not happen as promised even though the USPS showed delivery in their records. Even allowing for a holiday, delivery was the morning of the 3rd day. No recourse because their records indicated delivery had happened. So unless someone put it in the mailbox late in the day, it was not delivered on time (since normal delivery is before noon, we wouldn't be checking the mailbox).

USPS is the most convenient, reliable, least wasteful and friendliest of all the mailing services I used this holiday season. The packing available at the USPS is more variable and compact than other carriers where large brown boxes and bubble wrap dominate. UPS seems to be the most environmentally damaging. Online shopping seems to have a very negative impact on the environment due to the packaging even if it is recycled.

USPS has done a great job over the years of holding on - from emails and payments now easily paid online and/or via banks. They get grief, but for the money they offer the best option.

Company that sent product say it was delivered, so won't refund my money. I hope the person who received it is enjoying the product(s). Medications ordered from online pharmacy affiliated with my insurance have been missing since Dec. 22. They do have an investigation out on that one, but tracking says it is still in Indiana. It was in Anaheim 20 miles from here, but sent back to Indiana for some reason. It took almost all day on the phone to the post office (1 hour hold time) plus calls to the pharmacy, prescribing Dr., insurance to get an emergency supply from the local pharmacy.
Yesterday, I received mail for another resident in our complex. Today another resident brought mail to me that was mistakenly put in her mailbox.

The specific post offices that need attention where I mail many letters and packages are Matawan, NJ (07747) and Somers, N.Y(10589). My 82 year old sister lives in Somers and I was told by the postal clerk that there are not enough carriers!!! Come on, I believe that you can do better.

I was expecting a Priority Mail Package that was sent from PA to AL on 1/7/19. Estimated arrival was 1/10/19. When it did not arrive I signed up for their handy little tracking notifications. The fact that it was late did not upset me greatly, as no one gets it right ALL the time. But what concerned me was that there was no tracking scans after departure.
So, on the 12th I called Customer Service. I have to say, it was frustrating trying to get an actual person on the line (no choice offered). There was 1-1/2 hour wait for a return call! (They're overworked!) But when Deloris called me, she was wonderful! She was pleasant, professional, and very helpful. She promised to forward my concern to management so they could follow up. And they FOUND my package!!! It tracked to my local Post Office 4 days later & was delivered on the 16th! So, yes, even though it was late and a little stressful, they did what they needed to do to locate my package & get it to me! So, I'm very relieved & grateful! Thank you.

While shipping packages out of state over the holidays, I looked at the online site to determine if I used 3-day Priority would it arrive before Christmas Day. The site said (not verbatim) 'ship on Thursday in the above manner mentioned and it will be received by Christmas Eve 2018.' When I got to the post office the lady who took my packages not only told me to 'slide them toward her onto the scale myself (???)' but that it had an 'estimated arrival time of Christmas Eve.' I told her what the USPS online site delivery schedule said and she said 'at this point nothing is guaranteed.' As well, I wanted to insure one package for $500.00 and she failed to add that to the package (thankfully it arrived safe), and when she was finished sticking labels and postage on packages she merely 'tossed' them into a bin behind her, never looking over her shoulder.
Total and complete disregard for not only customer service but for 'what did not belong to her,' I suppose. I can understand there are 'busy times' every day of the year for many companies but this post office is this way each day it is open. Always making it a hassle, a one-man show most of the time, no hurry as they are on the clock and well, the USPS in Georgia never gets in a hurry. They cannot even put my mail in my mailbox.

Recommend a sign telling customers to have all of their packages labelled & addressed before meeting a postal agent. This will improve efficiency/productivity while making customer who are in line with all packages/envelopes properly labelled & addressed happier.

The cost would be appropriate if it got to its destination when promised. The fact that a package can be sent to the wrong address with not only the correct address but the correct zip means some one is slacking on the job. Too much money for the poor service.

Package mailed from Asheville, North Carolina, via ground transport on December 17, did not reach Arlington, Massachusetts, until December 26. I was not informed that priority mail would have been a better option at that time. This was my last mailing. However, my usual experience with the USPS has been excellent.

I have not only contacted my local postmaster but have personally spoken with my postal carrier all to no avail. I have had a full length, puffy coat crammed into my mailbox, all books I order end up with broken bindings and bent and again crammed into my mailbox, anything glass is done for, and because I live in a third floor apartment, my mail carrier refuses to walk up the stairs to deliver anything. Today he left a box of books that he evidently could not cram into my box on the last step of the second flight of stairs. I ended up tripping and falling over it as it was nearly invisible against the grain of the wooden stairs. My dog fell as well. It was a disaster. I am disabled (and also have severe damage to my left leg) and I go up and down those stairs more than a few times each day with the dog. I keep them totally clean of snow and ice and spend a small fortune on ice melt.
My Federal Express carrier, UPS and DHL carriers all thank me for keeping the stairs so clean. My FedEx carrier brings my dogs food up those stairs monthly. He never complains and is always lovely to deal with. The ONLY carriers I have a problem with are my USPS carrier and the local postmaster. I have contacted the Postmaster (locally) a couple of times and asked what could be done and he was so rude. He told me unless I had an elevator my carrier does not have to deliver the package at all! I told him how often my mail is on the ground, in the street or driveway because he jams so much into the box it won't shut tightly. He said, "Did that happen today?" I said, "No, but, my box WAS left wide open as well as the other two mailboxes next to mine." He said, "I know that's not true because I delivered the mail to your apartment building today!"
I told him, well then I guess that pretty much tells me why my regular carrier behaves as he does. I asked him how I could contact the PostMaster General in DC and he laughed at me and said anything I have a problem with, HE is as high as I could go. That there is absolutely NO WAY and NO ADDRESS or customer service to speak to except him! I really hate being lied to. The PostMaster General in Washington DC is named Megan ** and the address to write to is 475 L'Enfant Plaza Washington, DC 20260 for anyone else who is given the "wrong" information. I hope more people write to the DC office. No amount of complaining or getting angry will change situations like this unless enough people TAKE ACTION!
Please write to Megan ** at the Washington DC office and let her know what is going on in your town or city. I personally believe too much power is given to the local Postmasters. Mine is obviously high on himself and believes it is alright to lie to people. He most certainly knew what the address was to the DC office and should not be telling people HE is the final word on all matters concerning the mail in my small city and that there is NO SUCH ADDRESS or ANYONE other than himself to complain to. The mail is supposed to be the BEST way to receive things our loved ones have sent us, bills that need to be paid and packages we as consumers pay for, INCLUDING the cost to mail it to us!
I should not have to live in a building with an elevator to have a healthy young man walk up three flights of stairs to deliver a package. If I can go up and down these stairs, keep them free of snow and ice while being disabled, missing part of my left leg and a few months away from 60 years old, then why, can't a healthy young man walk up those same stairs. USPS in my town should be totally ashamed and chastised for their horrible attitudes and bad behavior towards its customers. I also get tired of having to pay extra to other shipping companies because I cannot trust USPS to get my purchases to me in one piece. Time for a change! I do so hope Ms. ** will read the letter I will be sending her.

I sent some Christmas gifts out the day after Christmas, using Priority Mail. After 4 straight days of tracking the package and seeing “your package will arrive later than expected but is still on its way”, I realized that it was likely lost. I tried calling customer service, but got disconnected every time and never got to speak to anyone. I then sent an email, and was contacted by the local USPS post office guy. He couldn’t find my package, and he couldn’t find the contents either.
I was then advised to file an insurance claim online. I’ve been trying to do that for the past 3 days, and it keeps saying there was an error processing my request. It says to call the tech support number. So, I called that number and waited on hold for an hour and a half!!

There is absolutely no way to find out where my package actually is, or if it has been stolen by a Post Office employee, damaged, or just plain lost.

By way of example I paid for 3-day priority shipping (which takes 4 days 70% of the time) and it is as of now way overdue. It was stuck in the abyss for 6 days then finally reappeared at the infamous "DETROIT MI NETWORK DISTRIBUTION CENTER" aka the black hole. Now typically one should be able to reasonably expect that standard size envelope to arrive at the destination post office the next morning but it was not to be. Nope, if for some idiotic reason it stuck there for an additional FIVE DAYS!

Any time I have to deal with USPS, it becomes an instant headache. For starters, their tracking system is garbage and hardly updates, either properly or on time. This most recent situation really showed how terrible this service is, and it's no wonder they're losing money. I recently moved, and Amazon did not properly delete my old address like I had before placing an order. So now, my packages are being delivered to the old address. Great. I head down to the old address and talk to the little old lady who moved in. She says she left a note in the mailbox to have my mail taken back to USPS. She didn't have it, and the mail wasn't in the mailbox like they said it was.
Several hours later, it's updated to say that it was taken back and being forwarded elsewhere. Well... Where?? I try calling and have to sit through this terrible automated message that you can't skip about times they aren't delivering mail, and when they are. Thankfully, the phone service also forces you to use voice recognition that glitches out even when hitting the numbers on the phone. So oftentimes, I either had to restart the call and sit through that same starting nonsense, or back out and try again. Almost an hour of this, and my issue was not resolved. Tried putting a mail forwarding request. Doesn't seem to be working. Found out they have a mail intercept option. Great! I tried, and none of my packages are eligible. What? Why the hell do they offer all these tools, and not let you use them or make them so bad, you wouldn't ever try to?
As it stands right now, all my mail is in limbo, and I can't even get them to just hold the damn packages for me to come collect myself. Couple this with the fact that the mailmen always handle my packages poorly, going so far as to damage the packaging on expensive computer parts I order or just leaving them out in the open without even knocking when I'm home, and you have a service that I almost wish would just go out of business.

Even the next facility is the destination facility, they add "transit to next facility" and make it late. They never give packages if you go to USPS facility, adding to even more frustration.

I shipped my Christmas packages from the Post Office Priority Mail December 17th early in the morning. They were going from San Diego to Las Vegas, a 5 hour drive. The one that had my granddaughter's presents was accidentally sent to Seattle. From there it stayed "in transit" until the 24th and then it took another 2 days to get from LV distribution center to the LV Post Office. Needless to say the kids didn't get their presents for Christmas. It was finally delivered on the 26th, but a note was left on the door saying no one was home so they couldn't leave it. It was not a signature required delivery and security camera shows that the Postman never took a package to the door nor did he ring the bell. He just came and stuck the note on the door.
My daughter requested it be redelivered the next day, but instead it went back into "in transit" status. When it was not delivered the next day, she went to the PO to pick it up and they said it wasn't there, probably out for delivery... It wasn't. She went back again the 28th and was told the same thing. This time she demanded to see a supervisor and had to raise a stink. They were magically able to find the package that wasn't there. Are these people lazy and inept or scamming people our packages? My daughter said there were several other people there with the same problem getting the same BS. Some in tears. They did not listen to her until she said security camera... Suspicious?

Need to ship a package domestically or internationally? DON’T use US Postal Service! I shipped a package internationally-the clerk neglected to tell me that I had to pay additional for insurance and that there would be no signature. The package has been stolen and all the US Postal Service can tell me is “Sorry but you didn’t ship it the right way so there’s nothing we can do about it.” So I’m now out $450 and US Postal Service gets off with a Sorry. Never using them again. Learn from my experience and use FEDEX or UPS next time.

Shippers beware: The USPS is engaging in a very sneaky and unfair practice of demanding payment of FULL COST of a new shipping label if the correct label was not selected. Here’s the scenario: if by chance you ship a Priority Mail package for let’s say $7.05, but mistakenly pack it in an -almost identical looking and also free- USPS Flat Rate Box, the USPS may at its own discretion decide to demand the cost of a Flat Rate Label from the recipient. In this case, $13.65 for size Medium. #1 - if the shipper did not take advantage of the “flat rate” version of Priority, what is the harm in accidentally selecting the freely supplied box which happens to have the words “flat rate” on it?
The flat rate and non-flat rate boxes are made of the same materials, printed with the same colors and supplied free to Shippers. The only difference between them is the presence of the words “flat rate”. #2 - Why wouldnt the USPS in this case demand just the difference in postage between flat rate and nonflat rate Priority (~$6.60), and #3 - how is it ethical for USPS to be paid twice for fulfilling only 1 Priority Mail service? If the USPS argument is that they had to put a new Flat Rate Priority Label on the Box why would the shipper not be refunded the original cost of the nonflat rate label that “could not be used”? This may be splitting hairs for the occasional shipper but for many domestic small businesses who ship 1-10 lb packages, and have the option to switch over to another reliable carrier, who by the way offers net terms and volume discount tiers, this nickel and diming by the USPS is a big deal.

No one handed me a package. I think USPS subcontractor did not deliver it and lied instead. He delivered another package to me that same day and seemed like he hated delivering packages.

Why does the USPS spend so much money on false advertising? They say, “Have your packages shipped priority by December 21st for GUARANTEED CHRISTMAS DELIVERY!” They never stated Christmas 2019... This is the second year I have been burned by the United States Postal Service’s trusted snail mail. I had my priority packages to the post office before the required deadline and even paid additional money for extra insurance. They were a scheduled to arrive Friday.
Here it is, Tuesday. Christmas has come and gone. The old saying goes, “It’s not your presents but your presence that matters.” In my case, living 1,000 miles away from my loved ones, our presents were our presence. I will not be refunded, reimbursed, or compensated in any way. The USPS will ultimately deliver the packages late without so much as a simple apology. Millions of consumers will continue to send mail (including myself as ridiculous as that sounds) and life will go. Maybe one day my nieces and nephew will be able to comprehend why they did not receive gifts from me.

I mailed a package on Dec 13th with a "seven" day delivery date of Dec 20th. I chose ground delivery because my "oversized" box (by one inch) took the charge from the initially quoted $22+ for priority, to $36+. With four days to spare, I figured that even with a delay it would definitely arrive in time for Christmas. Wrong. I got regular updates with it listed as "in transit to the next facility" and "your package will arrive later than expected". Long, unexplained delays, with it eventually reaching the right city's distribution facility on Dec 24th. Today, Christmas, I received another update saying it was in transit to the next facility! IF it is delivered tomorrow, it will be 14 days, for a seven day delivery. I will never use their ground delivery again! Very distressing, and disappointing (The small package that I mailed by priority mail, arrived on the third day).

Delivery is undependable and predictably late. The service providers always lives up to the poor reputation they are known for. Almost 2019 and the USPS has not implemented a simple system to keep previous residents' mail from continually being delivered to current registered addresses. Constant notifications of other patron's mail received in what is supposed to be a secure? Informed Delivery account. Informed Delivery is unsecure spyware, another third party developed platform to take images of your mail and gather information about you and your transactions. The notifications are sent just prior to or at time of delivery so it is useless to the patron.

12/13/18 I patiently stood in line at the Lake Mary Post Office to ship 2 packages. The clerk did not seem to want to be there as I asked questions about the cheapest way to mail the CHRISTMAS GIFTS to guarantee they'd make it by Christmas. Almost $60.00 later, I left believing her and relieved the items were finally "en route". They sat at the LAKE MARY DISTRIBUTION CENTER for 5 days before ever leaving Florida for California and Vancouver WA. I signed up for the tracking alerts and never received a single alert. When the packages did not arrive by today I called customer service. After waiting on hold for 40 minutes I finally got a very nice apologetic clerk "Kathy" who informed me that the boxes would not make it to my granddaughters by Christmas. She also told me I could have mailed them FLAT RATE for cheaper and faster.
FIRST AND LAST TIME I ever use USPS. It's very unfortunate that they cannot see why they have such great competition. It's not rocket science to be customer focused and USPS will never hold a candle to FEDEX or AMAZON if they don't educate their employees. Unbelievable waste of $60.00.

Over the last month I have had at least 6 packages that I ordered for Christmas shipped through USPS and not delivered on time. I have tracked each package and all of them made it to the “Out For Delivery” stage and then changed to “Attempted to deliver - recipient requested package be held at post office”. I was home at the exact time the notifications said the delivery attempt was made for each package. I certainly did not request the packages be held at the post office. I had to take time off from my job each time to go to the post office to get my packages only to have to wait in a horrendously long line with other irritated people who also got the same tracking message and were there to pick up packages.
It literally took me almost 2 hours each time at the post office to wait in line and then once I finally made it up to the counter to wait even longer while they located my package. Several times they advised me they could not locate my package and told me to come back the next day. I asked them why the tracking says my mail carrier attempted to delivery my packages but did not leave them at my residence and they would not give me any answer. I think my mail carrier is just lazy and rather than deliver all the packages she just puts the notification that the recipient asked her to hold them at the post office so she won’t get in trouble for not delivering them.
When you order Christmas gifts 5 weeks before Christmas and they are coming from vendors within the United States, you shouldn’t have to worry that they won’t make it to you by Christmas but when my local post office takes 7-10 days to process a package to get it out for delivery or my mail carrier won’t deliver the packages, this is something I have to worry about. I’m very frustrated with my local post office and plan on using FedEx and UPS whenever that is a shipping option as they are much more reliable than USPS.

My carrier marked my package as delivered at the mailbox but never delivered it. I’ve been fighting with my local office all week and the postmaster refuses to help me. I was there earlier and he wouldnt even come out even though he’s the only supervisor at that location. Their employee even scolded me as if I was a child. I’m hoping contacting consumer affairs will do something but I doubt it will. Our carriers can steal our packages and the post office refuses to do anything about it.
The carrier told them she handed it to me, however I work full time and I was at work when she allegedly did that and if she had the package would have been marked “left with individual at address”. Just so everyone knows, the post office uses GEO Tracking. That is a tool to track the exact location of your carrier when they mark your package delivered. A lot of the time you’re getting notifications that your package is delivered but it’s still at the post office. We as consumers need to change the way this company is ran. It’s Christmas and I can’t even get my package? I’m disgusted this company is ran this way. Everyone else should be too. I hope they go out of business to be completely honest.

I order from Amazon frequently and I absolutely hate when any of my packages are being delivered by USPS. My local USPS carrier will often deliver my package to either my husband's aunt's house or to his cousin's house. We live up on a hill and my husband's aunt and cousin both live below us. So, our house numbers are close together. But, since the mail carrier has been delivering our mail for several years, it isn't irrational to expect him to be familiar with our house numbers. But apparently he isn't. When I order things, I frequently track them so I'll know when to expect them to arrive. When it shows up as "delivered" I almost always end up searching for my package whenever it states that my package was left at my door because it's never at my door.
If the mail carrier actually brings the package up to my house, he never brings it to the front door. He will either leave it in one of our vehicles in the driveway if we are home or he will leave it outside near the basement. But, sometimes it is nowhere to be found. That's when I have to call my husband's aunt or cousin to ask if my package was left at their house. Sometimes it is sitting near their front or back doors. Sometimes they haven't seen it either. Last week, I was waiting for a package from Amazon that contained Christmas gifts for my kids. The tracking showed that it was delivered. It stated that the package was "handed off". Oh really? Handed off to who? Not me or my husband. Not his cousin or aunt either. So, my husband went searching around outside his aunt's and cousin's houses.
He found my package sitting on the hood of his aunt's car out in her driveway. Her driveway isn't visible from her house as it is over to the right of her house, beyond her side yard and a large storage building that separates the yard and the driveway. So, unless she was out there in the driveway when it was delivered, she wouldn't have seen or heard the mail carrier when he left my package on the hood of her car! And he knows that the house number on my package was for the house up on the hill, not either of the two houses below it that are close to the street! I'm just angry about the tracking showing that my package was delivered and "handed off" when it clearly wasn't handed off to anyone. It was thrown on top of a car that was sitting in the driveway at the wrong address! That's just unacceptable!

Note from the tracking history that this package was sent by the North Houston Distribution Center to its "Next Facility" on Dec. 14, 7:39 a.m. That 15 mile trip took three and 1/2 days.

This package was originally accepted by USPS in Florida on Dec 11, 8:46 a.m. Eight 1/2 days later, it's still out there somewhere. A few things I've learned from this experience: 1. USPS is clueless about how to conduct their own business operations. 2. Their tracking system is nothing close to real-time, and often broken. 3.
