<p>[QUOTE="stldanceartist, post: 1658741, member: 13307"]As a seller there is nothing more frustrating (well, except maybe the most extreme of insane buyers) than getting your item paid for, packaged up and shipped....only to see the USPS take FOREVER to get it to its destination. I currently have multiple items going to Canada (selling off most of my Canadian collection) that were paid for and shipped the next day...back in the third week of FEBRUARY...that still have yet to arrive at their destination. I especially love when you take the package in to a Salt Lake City PO on a Monday...and the next scan is in Los Angeles, five days later (no acceptance scan in SLC...) I've called on behalf of the buyer and gotten the "we can only see what you can see online" message...or the "there's nothing I can do" statement.</p><p><br /></p><p>Personally, I have no idea what the USPS is doing right now, or why they don't follow their own procedures (Registered Mail or Signature Confirmation packages being left outside my apartment on multiple occasions?) but just please keep in mind that, if your seller shipped the item quickly, it may not be their fault that it hasn't arrived yet. Perhaps a constructive complaint to eBay about the USPS would be the best course of action, as I'm sure your seller feels as frustrated and helpless as you do.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
