<p>[QUOTE=&quot;MorganFred, post: 38079, member: 1779&quot;]Agreed: the Post Office is not infallible, is sometimes enigmatic. Long time ago, my mother mailed me a shirt which she had embroidered with exquisite care. Never showed up, mother was heart-broken, I eventually received the insurance check.. About six months after receiving the check (which perhaps was three months after the original mailing), the shirt showed up in my mail. I have no idea where it had sat for so long.</p><p><br /></p><p>While in Canada, I have had to wait up to ten weeks for mail from the States. Other than being slow anyway, it&#039;s often held up by Canadian Customs.</p><p><br /></p><p>Much more recently, I have anxiety attacks when incoming coins are late, especially if the sender hasn&#039;t insured them and/or added Delivery Confirmation (I ALWAYS pay for insurance and add extra for Delivery Confirmation so items can be tracked, but too many sellers seem to have brain disconnects at the Post Office; I always send them out insured [over $50] and with DelCon whether or not the buyer has paid for these services). I would estimate that incoming coins are overdue by one to seven days about fifty percent of the time; there are some real problems with the Postal Service... but maybe this is another thread.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
