<p>[QUOTE=&quot;krispy, post: 889887, member: 19065&quot;]<span style="color: Blue">Firstly, your scenario, at this time, makes no sense:&nbsp; <span style="color: Black">YOU won an auction, but YOU sent the item via USPS&nbsp; First Class Mail to the other person in this transaction</span></span>...&nbsp; but now the other person, the Seller(?), is returning what YOU won in&nbsp; the first place, and opted for an alternate tier of return postage, USPS&nbsp; Priority Mail...? I think that you&#039;ve confused details or pronouns,&nbsp; which first need to be straightened out in your attempt to air your&nbsp; complaint to this forum.</p><p><br /></p><p><b>Secondly and more to the point: </b>The 2-3 days that the USPS quotes&nbsp; for Priority Mail delivery is an <i>estimate</i>, <b>not</b> a&nbsp; guarantee. Get that in your head and never, ever forget it because you&nbsp; will be burned time and time again thinking it to mean anything else.</p><p><br /></p><p><u>If you required delivery by a specific date</u>, then&nbsp; you, the seller or your customer, <i>should have</i> elected and paid&nbsp; for USPS Express Mail seeing as this was the carrier you each chose to do business with/through. </p><p><br /></p><p>If you have a general thing against the services&nbsp; tendered by the USPS based solely on your <i>perception</i> of their services,&nbsp; rates, terms and conditions, then you probably need to find another carrier who&nbsp; can deliver on time or you must learn to agree to the terms of service you purchased.</p><p><br /></p><p>Carriers such as FedEx, UPS and DHL are all alternative services at your&nbsp; disposal and offer services for time sensitive delivery. It remains&nbsp; YOUR responsibility to understand each carriers terms and conditions, services and&nbsp; what they will &#039;guarantee&#039;. It is <i>imperative</i> that YOU select and pay for the&nbsp; appropriate service to meet your needs.</p><p><br /></p><p>Therefore, your complaint about the service of the USPS it baseless in&nbsp; the scenario that you provided. You got what you paid for and it&#039;s not&nbsp; lousy service. &quot;The bottom line&quot; is that YOU or the other person in the&nbsp; transaction (still unsure of who is who and which way this parcel is&nbsp; traveling to-and-fro) bought the wrong service(s) from the selected carrier&nbsp; <i>and/or</i> either party are simply using the wrong carrier to begin with to obtain the level of service(s) required to complete the transaction.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
