gosh darnit... so I can expect some more waiting. This package will be a fairly large package too

Damn and I'm waiting for another package that has also been shipped Parcel post too, which will also be a good size package. ---- I hate parcel post. I should just check the tracking number instead of driving down to the PO everyday to check my PO box. ---- I spend 20 minutes everyday just to go to the PO to check. Sooooo gay.

Thanks for your input too frank. Damn one time I got something shipped parcel post, it only took a week to get here, but I guess cause it was a small size.

Oh jeez and the waiting game continues. After this I'm gonna have to specify that I will not accept parcel post shipments. This is just seriously rediculous. The one thing that I hate is the thing I have to do... waiting. Drives me crazy. Damn I'm getting pissed and my head is starting to hurt.

oh no I'm by no means calling these shippers hotrexII, I have delivery confirmation numbers that say they have been dropped off. But for one of them, it just sucks to have to wait longer after I have waited long enough

The USPS tracking/delivery confirmation sucks...so slow to update and it dosen't give the details like UPS or Fedex.

It took about 3 weeks for a package I sent PRIORITY mail which is 2-3 days to go from Ashland, Oregon to Redding, California.

It's 136 miles or a 2.5 hour drive. ------- ridiculous.

Thanks for your input guys.

This ---- really blows. For giggles I went to check my PO Box just to see if any of them came, and well to no surprise none of them came yesterday. And even though I wasn't expecting them to be there, I still got pissed, just like every other time I check.


I still prefer USPS Priority Mail though over FedEx and UPS. :P

I just hate this Parcel Post bullshit

I always use USPS for my deliverys from US to Australia. They are fast and the cheapest by far. My stuff also gets through 9x out of 10 without any fee's. Longest i waited though was when i shipped an intercooler surface mail. 9.5weeks on a 4-6week service

Parcel post gets the last Priority on beign process. Say if that one post office can not empty out all theire regular/priority mails throught out the whole freaking week, your parcel will stay at the same spot unitl everything else is processed.

Last time it took me 2 weeks to recivie something from NY to CA on parcel post. I actually paypal him a few extra dollars for a tracking number but ****** didn`t even spend the 45 cents for a delivery conformation . Which drove me crazy for the two weeks while i am waiting
