Default USPS Parcel post... question inside. If you had experience please post up.

Ok here's the deal. I have a transaction with a fellow HMT member for a few parts. I believe it was shipped USPS Parcel post, being that they told him the travel time to be 10 days or more. Well it's been almost a month, like 3 weeks now, and i still have got nothing. The delivery confirmation number still says "enroute" but damn that was the 29th of sept.

So my question is this, what is the longest you have waited for a package to arrive via USPS Parcel Post?

Please post up your experience.

yeah I'm thinking about doing that, but I doubt that they are gonna help me much.

Thanks for your input.

Damn and it's getting costly for me too, I drive to my P.O. box like 10ish miles round trip each day, just to see it not there. So gay.

damn, that makes me feel a little bit better. Was it actually USPS's fault and was shipped when claimed or was it hotrex 102 shipping? Was it also from a US zip to a US zip?

damn well thanks for your input.

Jeez CT to Ohio, not even across country like mine and it took that long? That's terrible. This is the LONGEST USPS has ever taken on anything that I have ordered. USPS is my shipping preference too.

I guess USPS is turning into UPS then huh? I remember one package took more than a WEEK to get to me. A weekish to deliver, not that long huh? Typical travel time. But it was shipped from a city 20 minutes away!!! Damn seller didn't allow local pickups.

They usually do well with Priority from my experiences, but I had a parcel post package from GA to MO take 3.5 weeks.

damn 3.5 weeks, well it's been that long for me already And I too have usually had good experiences with Priority Mail. Whenever I buy stuff I always request USPS Priority Mail, but I guess the "savings" using Parcel Post is that appealing. I guess I can only hope for Monday. It's coming from VA to CA

Thanks for your input. And welcome to the site. I guess I'm special huh, I'm your first! First post guys, first post. Some of you ******* are so dirty :P
