A Waller had sent me a package, some youth arrows on April 1st. the tracking showed to still there but it wasn't. He did some checking from his end and found it to have been sent here but then routed elsewhere.

I finally wrote them off as lost and forgot about them. But today, May 3rd, they showed up at the house. I had just finished up serving and putting a nock set on the Barrett youth bow I had just received and now am ready for some kids with these arrows. I had just told the wife that I had to figure out some kid's arrows and these showed up. Way cool and very happy and very thankful that the postal service pulled thru. I notified the Waller that they had finally made it.

And the box was in great shape too, hard to believe but it was. Going to be some very happy boys this summer. Jerry

Good grief, to think that over a hundred years ago the mail went from one Ocean to the other on horseback in less time. I won’t see it but I foresee people using drones for any deliveries.

It was a good day for both of us Jerry..my new Novak Bear TD limbs just arrived today and they were "lost" on the 13th. There was zero damage to my box either.

You're very thankful when it took them over a month to get it to you? Alrighty then.

I had a package delivered to the back door inside of the fence with the dog in the yard

I found the box expertly dissassembled and the tennis shoes looking like Forrest Gump walked across the country in them but it only took 3 days to get here

Its a crap shoot for sure. I sent a package last week from Southern California cross. country and it got there in four days. Doesn't seem to be any logic to the mess.

To Folks Who Sell Archery Equpment.....I HIGHLY RECOMMEND that you start shipping to customers in forms other than the post office!!!!

They are a disaster!!!!!!

My postman on somedays just decides he is done before he gets to my house!!!????

I ordered a bowstring from a maker who only lives 4.5 hours from Indy. He shipped on Wed. It just arrived in Indy at 0230 this morning....AND IS STILL SITTING THERE!!

It was initially expected to be here Friday.

Seriously.....Fex Ex....UPS do not add that much cost and are 100% more efficient.??

Just a consideration....because it causes a lot of grief to clients.

PirateShip.com we ship products all over the country every week and use Pirate Ship and normally USPS and have very few problems in a year.

for the most part, for years a very dependable system but there are some that want it to be privatized. so, things happen here and there. the world is changing rapidly

I don't know but that is what everyone says. You will have to call them and ask them. LOL. Probably from Covid
