USPS has been hit or miss. I have a juice order with 2 day priority mail and it isn't scheduled to be delivered for 4 days but I also have another package that came in 2 days. Hopefully the Radius comes in 2 days as well.
I hear you there... I had a juice order that was mailed on the 30th and just arrived today! It went from Minneapolis to Los Angeles and finally back to Cleveland, Ohio!

Funny how that happens. I once had an order go from Washington (not Monroe) to Florida, then back to Nevada.

I remember someone's order (not sure which vendor thread) took a trip for a month or more around Africa.

I once had an order that was literally 10 - 20 min away by car hop clean across the coast & back.

Note 5!!!

I hope it wasn't a US vendor, that would be sad.

I'm surprised they didn't charge the recipient for overseas shipping.
Why would the recipient be charged? The shipment originated in the US & should've remained in the US- that's not the vendor or recipient's fault. It was USPS that decided someone's package needed a world tour.

The Hana Modz One Mod is $45.00- $59.00 now. Has big screen DNA 40 and takes single or double 18650's.I have had one since they were released. Used every day. The DNA 40 board is $60.00 by itself.

Thanks, but here, in the EU, we have sales tax, often expensive shipping etc.
I'll take a look at the rDNA today.

Without your prior permission I suggested you as a possible assistant for someone who needs a package received outside of the US. I just wanted to give you a head-up in case you get asked.

JOHNS wants an Ovale emini duo. The posts about trying to get one for him sort of starts here and goes on a few pages:

Tonight I learned that Thailand can't export to the US because of a junta.

Just a reminder for members to vote. ECF doesn't have a webcast to alert people to this yearly "guide."

GuideToVaping's Best of 2015 | Guide To Vaping

I have "guide" in quotes because I'm not sure anyone actually reads the guide for vaping suggestions/information.

I hope to does. Lately, my 2-day Priority vape mail has taken 4 days. USPS delays, not the vendors.

I'm not lucky enough to be a BETA tester, though I would give my left...oh never mind... I wish I could be a BETA tester but was totally unaware of this development because I had abandoned this thread for a while...

Is anyone Beta Testing yet? I volunteered but I don't remember seeing anyone was notified. I might have missed a few posts though........

Oh good lord. That is just crazy.
Yeah, tell me about it, about a week into it I went in and confronted the clerk, I had a funny feeling he might have absent mindedly tossed it into the can when I handed it back after filling it out and sealing the envelope. That's when I learned that they will not credit or issue a refund for lost or damaged MO's until 60 days after purchase date, and you need to file and pay for a search for it to happen. I had written it off and already paid the vendor through another means and then I got a message that it showed up one day...

Last October, I ordered a handful of small items from a vendor. Wasn't much, just a couple three o-rings and a cheap dripper clone. I think the whole order was like $40. Got the shipping jotice, watched as the package went from their shop to the local post office, and then to the regional hub where it disappeared from the radar. After about 10 days, I called the USPS, who were just SO helpful. "I'm sorry, sir, but I don't have any more information available than what's shown on our tracking page." After a month, I gave it up for lost, and didn't give it another thought...

Until it arrived, fully intact, the end of this April.

The funny part was, on a whim I decided to dig out the tracking number and give it a look-see. It showed it being picked up 3 days prior to the day it finally showed up. No info whatsoever about where it had been the past 7 months.

Between that, and having one of my rent checks vanish into the ether, I have very little trust in the USPS these days.

I just had that happen this past week. Placed an order from a juice vendor. Shows the label being made and it just disappeared after that. I waited several days after it should have arrived and contacted the vendor. They reprocessed the order and shipped it out. Saturday, I received both packages. Went to tracking and there was a five day pause between when the label was made and when it made it to the post office. I think some of these packages fall off the conveyor line and it takes awhile for someone to cruise the floor to notice it.

oh my lord that is crazy. well the upside is this will be from provape so i know there is insurance on it. It gets really bad this time of year. A week or so ago there was a article in our paper about the USPS loosing mail. they closed our main post office for some reason and now things route through another location. becuase it is smaller now things seem to get lost. ugh.
