| Ordered 2 Troy folding sights which shipped 2/22...USPS tracking still says "electronic notification received," while the barrel I ordered and shipped UPS on 2/25 will be here tomorrow...lame, no wonder they're hurting. |

I think that may actually mean that the party you bought from has printed a label an has yet to hand it off to USPS. Usually it will show as accepted by post office when the USPS actually gets the box. I may be wrong, but this has been my experience. Both AIM purchases

USPS sucks.
I purchased 4 sig mags from a guy on Strum. I mailed his MO as requested and due to USPS issues I have had in the past I made it a certified letter so I could track it. It took 19 days to get from Va to Tx. With service like that, how are they still open at all? I did a dillo trade with a board member here last year. somehow the USPS took 31 days to get the dillo from W. Va to Va

| Maybe your post office just sucks? I've sent probably 100 packages in the past 2 years using USPS Priority and have had zero problems and the person gets the package in less than a week. And this is mailing things all over the country. I think the key is to always is Priority Mail. |

I ship about 120 packages a week through USPS, and typically for the first 3 days or so, there is no tracking info other than "electronic info received" because no one ever takes the time to scan the damn label until halfway through transit. If it wasn't so cost effective, I'd move to UPS or FedEx, but they charge extra for tubes. |
