I hate using USPS. They are way too inconsistent and slow. Since Priority costs about as much as regular UPS shipping, I prefer them or FedEx. It seems every site I go to uses only USPS. Does anyone know of any sites that use UPS or FedEx?
Vendors that use UPS or FedEx?

Sorry every place I've ever ordered from...and I've ordered from quite a few...uses USPS.
I think the vendors use it because it's cheap and the only service not in dire need of money and willing to ship e-liquid to make a buck.
USPS has been the norm for me, as well. Personally, I don't have any issues with the postal service.
I actually prefer usps. Every time I order anything UPS or fedex not only does it cost more, but a lot of they time they are actually slower. Plus UPS doesn't deliver on Saturday. I suppose it could depend on where you live, but almost all of my vape mail arrives in 3 days of shipment. Sometimes sooner. USPS is pretty fast in my opinion. Even when it's just standard first class.
Everyone I have ordered from uses usps as well....saving grace was finding a local retailer that carries my "go to" juice. After that I started making double orders from retailers and then making another order when I start my last bottle. That way it doesn't effect me if there's a hiccup with the mail.
If there's a retailer you wish to order from try calling them and asking if they will do ups for you. And if so just place your order over the phone.
That's all I got...

UPS costs far more for the light shipments of e-cig gear, and they're much slower coast-to-coast--UPS ground takes about a week from Florida to California, for example. And they don't deliver on Saturday unless you pay an extra $10+, or whatever.
I use UPS to ship in my electronics business only because they pick up every day fairly cheaply. I'd use USPS otherwise.

I'm pretty sure everything I have ordered from every vendor has shipped USPS. I wonder why they use USPS, probably because they can fit most orders into an envelope and it's cheaper that way. The only thing I really don't like about USPS is they don't have a real tracking system. It's just delivery confirmation and they don't always scan the package at every location, I've noticed this especially with packages coming out of New York. And I think my mail man hates me...
I 100% agree. I order pet supplies online frequently and the place I go to only uses UPS. There have been times where I order vape supplies and pet supplies at the same time. Guess which package I receive first.
Just a thought--USPS is way more reliable for me than any other carrier...my advice (as an online shopper almost exclusively) is find the carrier that works best for your area, and contact the vendors prior to placing an order and request said delivery method. Or deal with their choice as a business.
Sadly, the delivery times/consistency varies with each region.
