I was wondering the same thing. I'm guessing it may have something to do with Valentine's Day.
Yeah, I'm waiting on seed potatoes and another order and neither of them are here yet.
Yes, seed potatoes - I'm, growing red potatoes and white potatoes this year. Henry Fields said they shipped last week and nothing in the mailbox yet

Yes, but take heart. It only goes from the first part of January to the last week or so of December.
Ahh now it makes sense.Yes, seed potatoes - I'm, growing red potatoes and white potatoes this year. Henry Fields said they shipped last week and nothing in the mailbox yet
Lol, seriously though I'm used to them delivering quicker than i expect. I'm gonna get some anxiety when they stop Saturday delivery
I think the postal service is slowing itself down on purpose, in order for us to "see" how much we will miss Saturday deliveries. I believe they are trying to prove a point, that they are so needed six days a week. {insert sarcastic eyeroll here}
On a side note, I know this is the month that many distribution centers are closing, as they consolidate, and reposition team members. (Are they called team members?)
The closing of these centers is adding days to the destination, and will continue in this manner, I believe, until someone balances their budget.

I placed an order recently and it arrived amazingly fast. Then I got an email from stamps.com saying a package from the vendor shipped feb 23, 2013. It updated yesterday and arrived today, but the thing is I only placed one order and got two. As far as usps, their tracking sucks. So.... Who knows
tl;dr - A friends Dad works for the post office at a sorting facility, and explained that the shipping jam that is going on is due to valentines day, and things might be up to four days late.
A friend, and fellow vaper's Dad works for the USPS. The two of them put an order in Friday, I put one in Saturday.
Mine came in today, while the expected delivery date was tomorrow. Their order was expected to be delivered yesterday, but, it went from one sort facility, to another. Why? No idea why exactly it did that. But what friends Dad explained that the reason shipping in jank was because of valentines day. To expect up to a four day delay for some things.

I never thought Valentines was that big a deal for the post. Oh well just another reason to hate Hallmark.
I have called them before they say it depends on Singapore customs also. So might be a week before u get
I wonder if USPS has combined some routes to make them bigger. My mail used to come about lunchtime to 1:00. Lately, it's 6:00pm before it appears.
