full of crappie gear , going ONLY 2 states away and it seems the postal service is trying to make it some sort of record on how many states it visits and how long it takes to get there ......:Rofl:banghead
no wonder they want so much to send a tiny box somehwere is my thoughts ...:yikes
no worries some day it will get there is my hopes , sorry sir , I had no clue it was going to be a set the dogs out hunt down for your package ....:Rofl
I have medications out there bouncing around for days now within 80 miles of us! Very strange :banghead
it is really odd , the package somehow went from me to about 20 miles away and then sat there for days because it was not supposed to go to a local delivery substation .....Quote:

Today some jig heads and lures…depending on when FedEx drops it off it will be under 41 hours. Have had same experience when my items are shipped with DHL or UPS. I guess my point is how that can be done on a regular basis and yet USPS packages just from one state over take much longer.

I have had many issues with the usps over the last several years. I live and W. KY. and had a package come from W. TN., it traveled through KY twice before being delivered. If you made a map of its travel it would look like you gave a two year old a crayon and a piece of paper. Mind boggling.
USPS is needing money to change their name....USPNS (United States Postal Non Service).:Rofl Funny how a package can travel from China or Japan in a few days but as letter to the person next door takes two to three weeks. :dono
I think the priority and amount one pays for the shipping service is the biggest deal. Regular shipping or ground isn't given as much priority or care. :twocents
There's a bullet mold company thats in SLOVENIA EU, that ships molds to the US all the time and uses DHL, most everyone get they're order in 3 days! UPS can't ship across my state without sending it across the country first. what gives?
Purchased a bed cover for my truck on a Friday. Was sitting on my porch Saturday afternoon from the other side of Tennessee. Takes 4 days to send a letter that distance
I ordered a music CD on 6/29 and it is still making a multiple trips around the US. It's suppose to be here on 7/14 so now I hope the delivery person puts it in the right mailbox (keeps getting my address confused with a neighbor).
Service is terrible my friend. They will have the package travel over 1000 miles to get to a destination only 100 miles from where it started. Rates are sky high and service is something lower than hades at times.Quote:

When I checked Saturday the 8th it still hadn't moved and I said enough. I called USPS customer Service and complained. they started an investigation as to where it was. A local Springfield, Mo. supervisor called me on Monday to say it was found and would shortly be on it's way.
To be honest, ALL our mail, even cross town mail goes through the Kansas City distribution center for USPS, then to another distribution center in Kansas City, Ks, over to Lenexa, Ks it goes from their Down to a USPS distribution center here in Springfield, MO. over to the mail facility that actually puts it in a mail box. Even cross town mail goes through the whole system...Why.
I have a jig maker that lives 15-20 miles north of me in Bolivar, Mo. straight shot up hyw. 13. A package from him, no matter the size takes a week to get to me. I can call Jason up make my order and meet him the next morning in Bolivar and be home in less than an hour, and we talked fishin for 35 minutes...instead of waiting for a week.
Thank you again Ketchn for having the drawing for the fishing gear. Hopefully I get to go fishing this week end and put them to use for sure.
Na they raised prices again this past Sunday. Gotta pay for all that fuel consumption and incompetence somehow…:Rofl
I didn’t get anything buddy!, [emoji849]Quote:

BUT if I need to go to the post office to pick up my mail I have to go to the 40243 post office about 7 miles away. go figure ! 40222 = Lyndon Ky. 40223 = Anchorage Ky. 40243 = Middletown Ky. I'm in Moorland Ky. ??????
my first ever encounter was a check mailed to my mom 25 miles away , took 7 days to get there regular mail , the same day a check mailed to florida got to them in 3 .....i asked about 3 thousand questions and got some of the stupidest answers you can ever imagine about it had to go there to get there before it could go from here to get there .....seems after 25 years nothing has changed :banghead
I have to disagree Ketchn...It has change, and not in a good way...Quote:

Totally understand My friend. Could be why some places says must be post stamped by a certain date, because they know it's gonna be late getting to them...
