My stuff's been sitting in the PO for 4 days now!

I've never waited this long for an order from you. I know it's not your fault. I just wanted to let you know what was going on with your friendly neighborhood PO. 8-o

I know the feeling!

It does depend on your local post office. I happen to get excellent service from mine. My husband uses it to mail all of his orders (knife business) and never had a problem. Once i get a tracking number I request an e-mail be sent to me when it arrives.

My local PO is good also. A shipment from any other vendor first class or priority will arrive in 2-3 days. It's not LiteCig's fault, Shawn ships 'em right away.

Didn't show up again today so I called my local PO and they said, yeah, it should have been here last Thursday or Friday, but they dug around and couldn't find it. Lost in the void I suppose.

I REALLY want to try some blank 510 cartomizers! :(

PS: I would love to have the option to pay a little more for Priority Mail.

I've seen where Priority makes no difference at all. It depends totally on how the routing is set up. Priority from one spot actually can arrive the same day as regular mail. In one case, I had a town from 30 miles away get sent 100 miles the OTHER direction and then routed back through two stops before ever hitting our PO.

Just orderd from LiteCig for the first time and can't wait for the new cartos and some juice. Kicking myself for not remembering to include an adapter for using the KR 808 batts on the new carts and 510 Joye atty.

They shipped so fast, could not slip it in. I'll take the fast process time, see how long it is to MI, and order the adapter next time. JUST had a 510 battery go completely dead so I'm down to one and a PT.

Getting old sure plays havoc with the memory :(

I've gotten a USPS letter from Canada to South TX and the postmark was 2 days prior. My deliveries from UPS looked like they played a game of kickball with the box. USPS issues I create tickets through their headquarters hotline (to keep track of my nearest place always screwing up). FedEx is the best for up-to-date tracking. UPS and USPS only update when they receive it and when it gets to the destination. UPS is also the slowest since they do not work on saturday so that adds an extra day to any delivering estimate they have. FedEx is the most reliable out of the 3 from my experiences.

I'm still waiting for mine too.
Is it a full moon?
Ordered last Monday the 22nd.
Two orders, received one but not the other.
Of course the one I did get was my steampunk.
WOOHOO!

Yeah, seems really weird so many people have orders hung up that ordered around the same time.

Was the steampunk shipped first class or priority mail?

I've placed a bunch of orders from a supplier in NJ that uses first class and they always arrive in 3 days.

Very strange :confused:

yea i noticed this strange phenomena , but the good thing is i been getting emails today that those packages that been with usps forever and a day are landing to those who ordered. even ones i refunded the orders to bc of thinking they were lost well guess what they got today :) anyways i do apologize for usps but please once it leaves here i know no more then you do of where it is. that is all usps. i have looked into fedex, ups etc... but i would not be able to offer free shipping, and minimum shipping fee on any order would be 8-12 dollars. and they are all slower then usps is. i been using usps almost 2 years now, and this was the only snafu so i will give them the benefit of the doubt, and again apologize for their mistakes.
