Priority is supposed to deliver in 2 - 3days, correct?
I am using the tracking number to follow it online and it shows that it has sat in the local post office since Sat. March 12.
It's now March 16 and I don't have it.
I wonder how often we pay for Priority mail but don't really get it. My friend could have sent it First Class and it'd get here in the same amount of time for less money.
Grrr.
If it doesn't arrive today I'm going to call the Post Master and complain although it won't really do any good.
Yes, it certainly will do good. You can get a refund for whoever paid for the Priority Mail. But remember you can't count Sundays. It's only mail delivery days. So, it's actually only 1 day late.
Also, I send to NC from CA in the flat rate Priority Mail boxes, and they do make it in 3 mail days all the time. But I have to take it to the PO by mid-afternoon, otherwise sometimes it takes 4 days. The sender can have an effect on the amount of time.
