I am one of Rose's satisfied customers. I do need to report an unfavorable experience with USPS.
I mailed a simple envelope on a Friday and sent it priority mail. The letter was going from Seattle to a town in central Colorado. The letter did not get there until the following Thursday. Although I paid close to $10 to expedite the letter I fail to see how I gained any expedition at all. Simple first class mail would have been just as fast. Please note this comment has nothing to do with Rose or her business. The package I got from her arrived timely. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] <[email protected]> On Behalf Of Rose Sent: Wednesday, January 2, 2019 9:41 AM To: Elecraft Reflector <[email protected]> Subject: [Elecraft] OT: USPS mailing I've been making Elecraft cases and covers for eleven years. All of the hundreds I've made have been sent via USPS Priority Mail. To date, not a single one has gone astray … a remarkable record. I live "in the country" and have no mail delivery, so all of my USPS business is transacted in town at the Post Office. I purchase task-specific sizes of cartons from U-Line. usually 50 at a time. Cover orders are sent in padded envelopes, again purchased specifically from U-Line for the task. The Post Office provides a delivery date on each Priority Mail receipt, and these … so far … have proved highly accurate. Priority mail will reach anywhere in the US within a maximum of three days. An exception … an order to Turkey took -five- days! (:-) I will -not- use any other service. Fed-Ex is an awful organization, IMO. 88 !
