The item was paid for on Feb 2 (Wed).
Seller finally gets around to printing the label from her home on Feb 5 (Sat)
Then it sat in her house/car until she got to the PO late on Feb 8(Tues).
It took 3 days to get delivered, which is fine.
So the PO really did nothing wrong here. Just a lousy seller.
Not all mail facilities scan items when they are dropped off. For instance, if taken to Office Depot on Monday, it is not picked up for delivery to a USPS office until Tuesday. Depending on the truck picking it up, that could make it arrive late on Tuesday. This is why I no longer use the smaller delivery sites and only go to an official USPS office. That same item dropped off at Office Depot on Saturday would sit there until picked up on Monday morning.
