    You have been very lucky. I still have some outstanding for over 4 weeks.

    Some of my regular "toy" suppliers have gotten smart and split the cost of either FedEx or UPS with their customers. They also know the USPS is loosing/misplacing/etc stuff at a pandemic rate. Brownells has sent my last 2 orders FedEx and the packages were both delievered on a Sunday, but they made it on the day listed.

    I won't waste time with the politics of it.

    Things I've ordered recently that shipped USPS Priority are trickling in, but they're averaging 2+ weeks.

    And yeah, I've also noticed that places are switching to UPS or FedEx. Hell, I ordered a bunch of alloy from RotoMetals a few weeks back, and they upgraded it to FedEx at no cost. I had it 2 days later.

    It's been a mix for me. Some packages touring the Midwest before arriving much latter then expected. Some arrived as expected.

    Wife just got her birthday card from her mother. It was mailed on Nov. 24th., so 57 days to travel 600 miles.

    I have a rifle stock that was shipped just before Christmas that moved once and has now been in limbo since Dec. 27th. I e-mailed the USPS and they said wait 30 days and file a claim. I contacted the seller (Sarco) and they apologized but said the same thing. I know it's not Sarco's fault, but it sure is aggravating!

    Freakin idiots sent my last 3 packages back as undeliverable, incomplete address. What would I know, I’ve only lived here 52 years.

    The latest package contains 1000 federal fusions, a Leupold vx3i and a couple Redding bushings. If midway restocks the bullets I’m going to be really ticked.


    Unreal.

    Still fighting with USPS over the package I mailed 11-25-20 and they lost the same day, before it reached the hub. I have to go to the PO yet again for more mask to mask.
