USPS Confirmations Suck

[Grammie]

I'm still waiting on USPS, dangitall.... My p10 was scanned last week on the 15th and still has not been updated since that time. It's not the only Priority Mail that hasn't been scanned since it was shipped. I have 3-4 other packages that have not been scanned since delivered to the PO on the 14th of December!

Thank you David for getting it out promptly!

Remember, the confirmation numbers aren't worth SQUAT!

I'd take a deep breath and give USPS a break..it IS the week before Christmas. I waited a couple of days to get my update too and I've also found that depending on which hubs stuff goes through, you may or may not get any updates till after it's in your mailbox. Just think it could be sitting in customs in China awaiting the end of the Chinese New Year before it budges...LOL!

Yeah, i hear you grammie, i pitched a big ..... at the PO last week. They aren't updating tracking numbers until they deliver them. I asked them what is the point of having a tracking number if it doesn't update until it is delivered!!! Grrr....

 

[Grammie]

Yeah, I know it's the holiday that's slowing things down, but honestly, 6 & 7 days for delivery for Priority Mail. That's not exactly a couple of days ... we're talking about a week!

I have 2 orders coming from Kearny NJ, one shipped on the 14th, tracking still says the 14th. The next one I have coming from the same area (different seller) that one shows Kearny 18th, in my home state sorting facility on the 18th & 19th. Now how is that possible?

I have juice coming from CA, they mailed it on the 17th, that is being delivered today! Go figure...

LOL I converted my Postmaster and Mail Carrier to e-cigs many months ago. They call me to let me know when anything comes in! LOL

Yea that is why they call it delivery confirmation instead of actual tracking. They are only really responsible for scanning it just before they drop it in your box. They do on occasion scan items at sort facilities but they don't scan them all for some reason. Its pretty much all automated these days.

I talked to the Postmaster today, they aren't too happy with how packages are getting to them. So, it's not just me, everyone seems to be having "super delay" problems. I've had one package at the distribution center where they put it on the truck to go to the individual post offices, that's been there and scanned 2 times already and still they have not put it on the truck to the PO. Gosh darnit, it's Priority Mail, that we pay the higher price for to get it faster!

It's finally close to home, p10 is in Virginia!

Maybe tomorrow, unless they do the same thing they did from another vendor....they have it out for delivery in Northern Virginia! I'm close to the southern east coast! Fingers crossed, batteries charging (they got here today, from yet another vendor).

 

[Grammie]

Well, my p10 is still somewhere in Virginia in the Postal system. As of now, they don't know where in Virginia it sits.

Maybe by January it'll make it's way through the postal system, but I think the snail might get here first. Over a week today for Priority Mail getting through (my p10), yet, another Priority package (juice ordered after shipping notice on the p10) can make it here in 2 days from California.

Someone end my suffering and post a pretty picture of the p10 that I can look at for Christmas!

 

[Grammie]

There is a Santa, my p10 is here! I haven't been able to put it down all day!

One fine piece of machinery! Thank you David!
