The USPS is the spawn of Satan!!

I am beginning to really hate the United Postal Service. I sold and Xbox 360 on ebay on Saturday Dec. 17, and my customer paid for overnight shipping. I went to the Post Office and shipped it out via Express Mail on the 17th. Today is the 22nd and it has not arrived. It is been 5 freaking days, and my customer is still waiting. The system is a gift for her child, and if the USPS doesn't come through, it will ruin her kid's Christmas. I hate the USPS. I am switching to UPS. Let the United States Postal Service boycott begin.

I use Fedex, but only because I have a friend who can get me a 75% discount on all express services

Oh, she prolly got it, and now she's waiting to get a refund from you ALSO.

Your shipping during christmas, and you didnt forsee this? Also, call them up and complain.

If he pays for over night, then he should get overnight...that's just logical...I'd recomend DHL...had some good times with them....

[totokan]

It's called scammers. They 'pay' for the item and overnight, then get it and say it never came, trying to get a refund. Or, it could also have been a RTS problem...
EDIT: How much was it without shipping? Just curious.

I wouldn't use UPS either. I had a bike to ship out for Ebay and I HAD it measured and weighed it would be about $80 . But when I went to drop off the bike it was $140! That's $60 dollars more for those who didn't want to do the subtraction problem.

I have called them several times and complained. They gave me refund on the shipping. I got delivery confirmation so that I can track it online. Apparently there is a hold up in Charlotte. My customer paid $710 for the system and $60 shipping. I refunded her the shipping costs. This really sucks though, and I am pretty ticked off about it.

Wow, you made a nice sum of money off that system . Hopefully, it will get there in time. By me, In NYC, the transit workers are striking and all packages non-usps are delayed.

Yeah I made some pretty decent profit. I just wish I didn't have to deal with the headache of the incompetetent Postal Service.

[totokan]

well, at least you don't have to deliver it yourself

[jgibson]

Very true.

[Reploid Ayla]

well it is the holiday season. and anyone who has dealt with mail during this season know that things dont always come on time...

[gannon]

There's no reason not to use Delivery Confirmation if the bidder pays through paypal. It's just about the only way to prevent a scammer.

yeah, the strike sucks, my uncle had to lay off like half his crew (He does subway repair) right before chirstmas. Its so freaking annoying.

I'm from NYC...and yeah...USPS is laggin out here. My copy of Ninja Gaiden Black came TWO DAYS LATE. And everyone can't get anywhere. I have to walk across the Brooklyn Bridge to get to my school...THATS FAR....
