It seems when I have been working with the USPS even a tracking # will not work with them if they do not know where it is so I am sending Mike some more.
Anyone else who I have sent the tracking #'s to that did not get them yet? I still have 5 left to send out from the 44 people who ordered.
They are
Chris K
Thong
Rob M
Greg M
Greg P
Are left

Perhaps yours has been lost in sorting somewhere by the USPS? In the past, something similar to that has happened to me, and I called the USPS. They were able to locate the package in their system and get it back on track. Just a thought.
Arlin - you did not need to send more. I'm just perplexed that USPS doesn't take more responsibility for something that is 2-1/2 weeks late on delivery. I did contact USPS last week and still waiting for an update.

To some of the workers it matters what they do, but I am thinking there are also some who will steal the shippers blind and not content with the wages they make.
And I will resend them.
As of this time I am not teaching vets to turn. Also please do not send any items to me without prior notification. Thank You Everyone.
It is always the right time, to do the right thing.

If they don't show up I would not worry too much, use the money to cover your extra shipping costs.

I finally got the magnets today, They were stuck (literally) in Iowa since the 17 of Dec. I sent some funds to help you cover the extra cost of shipping.
Thanks for your effort on this/

The only guy who will not get it is PVW his was shipped out in Jan 7 on a truck out of Omaha and they do not know where it is.
I asked him (In Council Bluffs) if he can contact Omaha and he said he could try but that the USPS looses over 10,000 packages every month. I told him that is why UPS and FedEx is in business and if he does not find my package I will ask my congressman just why there is a USPS.
Does the USPS still get tax dollars?

Actually, I ship a lot through the USPS, and while I've had delays in delivery, sometimes two, or three weeks in one instance, they've never lost anything. Now, I've jinxed myself.......
But have some faith, they eventually get it right.
