I'm switching to UPS. The govt claims to have delivered an expensive package I sent priority to me mother. USPS says they delivered at 3:15 pm. Mom came home from work at 4:00 PM and no box.

Damn them.

So to tie this into trades, I say when trading or RAOKing..........BEWARE USPS!!!

Did it say "arrival at unit"? or delivered?

If it says arrival at unit, that means it arrived at your post office, not the house.

I know it seems stupid to mistaken that, but I've done it before.

No....it says "delivered at 3:15 PM."

"Arrival at unit happend this morning." Good advice, however.

Hey Dan, Not a big fan of UPS. If I have a choice I use FedEx.

That is a real bummer... Sorry bro.

Or possibly ... it was stolen off the front porch.

In this economy ... that seems to be happening more frequently ... at least around these parts. Thugs follow around the UPS, FedEx and USPS trucks just looking for an easy 'grab' ... when a package is left and no one is home.

... and it only takes a few seconds.

Next time ... if it is expensive ... get 'signature required'. The recipiet will have to go pick it up or make arrangements for soneone to be there the following day ... but at least they will get it.

I've had packages track "delivered at...." and show up 2 days later..

I think sometimes the postman scans it delivered, but gets lazy and it doesn't get done til later.
