I have vapemail that shows it was delivered today at 11AM. However...it was just scanned as delivered...and NOT delivered because the mailman decided it to call it a day (because of the massive snow here today) and go back to the main office to call it a day. Oh well. Hoping tomorrow he decides to REALLY deliver it.

I have to admit, if it was me I would have driven over to the post office to pick it up. Even in a blizzard ;)

I can understand completely! Yesterday I got 4 each of T3S' & MT3S tanks, & I could barely contain myself as I loaded them up with the juices I already had that I like. Today I got 2 shipments of new juces. I was SO dissapointed that out of 6 new juices, one leaked so badly in 3 different tanks that I had to put it in an old cheapy, & 3 I don't like at all. 2 I got from Artisan seem like they need to steep awhile. :( I guess you can't win all the time, but a couple I had high hopes for.

I checked the USPS site and it doesn't show any movement from yesterday. 2 of the 3 orders were sent Priority 2-day. The last update says Arrived Sort Facility Kansas City 4:40am Feb 13th. Normally wouldn't it update that it left the sort facility and on its way to the destination? I think 27 hours is plenty of time to make a 2 hour trip LOL I am getting impatient!!!! Weather shouldn't be an issue, it has been nice here for this time of year, snow is melting, roads are great.

Rain, Snow, Sleet, Hail? Thought the USPS motto or slogan or whatever was to deliver in any weather conditions? Yeah what a joke! I guess it was bad enough yesterday they didn't even open the post office, let alone deliver mail. I finally have a package marked "out for delivery" that should have been in my hands by Wednesday. The package was shipped via 2 day priority, and left the origin facility Monday the 10th. I get that depending on location it could take three days instead of two. With that being said I should have received it yesterday since it was shipped from Washington State.

USPS wonders why it is steadily losing business to Fedex, UPS, DHL, etc. Because they keep raising prices while lowering service standards.

Now, because my package contains a bunch of liquids, I am going to most likely have to send it back to have it replaced due to USPS leaving it in a truck in the freezing cold for two days. Guess I will hope for the best, that everything gets here and is OK.

I can say, I will pay extra from now on for anything I have sent to my house, to be shipped by any other carrier then the USPS.

I know right? So much for their motto!!! I am about to throw a 2 year old type tantrum LOL I hope your juice makes it safely, that would suck if it is damaged. We can't blame MBV though, I know they shipped mine out quickly. Just the post office is taking their sweet time. It got to Kansas City quick, but from there it seems stalled. I am still hopeful it will arrive today. I might be the ultimate stalker and go to the post office to see if it came. I live in a real small town, so she would be able to tell me real quick if it came or not. Just one lady runs the post office here and scans everything for us, our town is only 1 square mile :)

Completely Agree! MBV is in no way shape or form at fault for this. I ordered on the 8th. That's a Saturday. I fully expected my order to not be processed until Monday 10th. To my surprise, my order was completed the afternoon of the 8th, and even arrived at the sort facility that same day. That's amazing turn around time in my book for MBV. I can understand the USPS not moving it until Monday. Business days and all, I get that. But now I am just stomping around my house.

Make matters worse, my coffee pot overflowed this am, so had coffee grounds in the pot, had to remake it, dog was under foot and stepped on her tail, made me feel bad, I slipped on ice when I let her out this morning and hurt my tailbone, I have an exam for school due today, and I can't access it for some reason, and my Ol' Lady almost got in a bad accident this morning on her way to work. She's alright, just shaken up, but it just seems its going to be one of those days.

Sorry everybody, but I win the award for Ultimate Stalker of the Day. I am sitting here with 3 packages in my lap :D Drove over to the post office and picked them up. Even had to deal with the town drunk saying how sorry he was I quit my job last summer because I was the prettiest one there. He is sweet, but makes me uncomfortable. BUT yay!!!! I have my stuff :)

Yay for you!! Still hoping; say's that they left Indy sometime before midnight last night but no update at the local sort facility. I'm only a little over a hour away from Indy.

Good luck with yours! I hope it comes today for you. Now I am off to try to figure out how to put together this Kanger Mini Protank II

Got my package yesterday. 180ml of MBV yummy liciousness. Fortunately, thanks to the great packaging by MBV, the sitting in a freezing cold truck for two days did not affect my juice. Still think I am going to try to use any other shipping method besides USPS though. 5 business days for a 2 day priority package is a bit ridiculous to me.
