This is almost comical. I ordered an ATV part from a place in Macon,GA. They have free shipping and the USPS guaranteed delivery date is today. Tracking shows that after my package left Birmingham it went to Sommerville AL instead of Guntersville. It's not a huge deal that I didn't get it today and I'll probably get it tomorrow. BUT, what benefit is guaranteed delivery on FREE shipping of an item when USPS missed the specified date? I swear I get a little chuckle out of that.


I firmly believe that a double gallows should be constructed on the East Lawn of The White House. Politicians who willfully and shamelessly violate their oath to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States of America should be swiftly tried and, upon conviction, publicly hanged at sunup the day after conviction. If multiple convicts are to be hanged they can choose with whom to share the gallows or names shall be drawn from the hangman's hat to be hanged 2 at a time.

I think companies are short-changing customers and not paying the extra costs to expedite deliveries because general assumption right now is, "oh, it probably is delayed or held-up due to COVID". I ordered 2 things for mothers day that were guaranteed 2 day from Amazon, both items showed up this week instead. Luckily, I got the hint Saturday and went ahead to the store to buy a few additional gifts.

I also ordered several items from Academy on Tuesday.. all items are now showing delivery date tomorrow or Monday. Academy has always had products to my door within 2-3 days.

I ordered some computer parts and they went from Texas to Utah, back to Texas, then to Atlanta where they stayed for 4 days, then 2 days to get to me an hour away. Go figure.

If you want me to take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed, I will. I've got spare time.

Amazon Prime subscriber here. I havent seen 2 day delivery since Covid. What pisses me off even more is some stuff is 3-4 days and other things are 7-20 days. Ordered some things to make a 1st aid kit, 3 days. All car parts, go kart parts, 2 weeks plus. RV parts 20+ days, printer ink 3 days, clothing 3 days, bicycle tubes 2 weeks. Video game 3 days. It is like they are slow rolling stuff to keep me indoors like some kind of mall cop.

Many folks being forced to stay home plus many stores being closed to foot traffic means a higher than normal level of packages being shipped. The package shippers are being stretched thin. USPS, UPS, and Fed Ex are all experiencing a very high volume right now.

Yeah, pretty much total BS for those of us who pay for Prime strictly for the 2 day shipping. When will they refund us?

FedEx...SUX. 😈

I've been trying to take delivery of a package for two weeks. They have lied numerous times when I have called and they are incompetent IDOTS.

DANG!!! You are alive!!! ... I still have an arm brace that belongs to you lol

As for the USPS, yeah I had that same discussion with them years ago and was told "2-3 days is NOT guaranteed"...I then asked "THEN WHY TEH HELL DO YOU CHARGE LIKE IT IS?!?!" The package ahd been sitting in the local PO for 2 days when I went by and got sideways with the woman behind the counter.

I told her to give me the package and she replied " We don't give mail out across the counter"...I told her she had 2 choices...She could either give me my package or I'd come over the counter and get it myself...
I left with my package! grin

Same here. if I see another picture of a cute dog on their re-direct page, I’m gonna pull out my hair. And the reminder that you are WAY back in the line from first responders and government employees.

I went into a USPS Post Office with a Remington 700 factory plastic stock that I took off an “A” grade 700 and had done an upgrade on mine. So, a guy I know off TNDEER needed a basic stock for a build. When I went in to mail it for $12, the guy at the counter asked me the “drugs, firearms, and explosives” question. I told him that, no, it was only a piece of plastic off a rifle. The whole damn office came to a quiet halt including most folks in the lobby. The guy opened my package in front of everybody and had to re-wrap it. Man, I didn’t even charge money for the stock, I was just getting it out of my way and helping a guy out, and Uncle Sam shined a flashlight up my ass.

If I ever need to mail ANYTHING again, even a letter, it won’t be through USPS.

There is a Postmaster in Fultondale (insert assumption here) that kept telling me that my zip code was SIX DIGITS, 352117. I S H I T you not. I have about 4 more recent stories about Fultondale and Tarrant, who handles Dad’s mail, but I’m not gonna waste my time on here with them.

This /\. Had mothers day present ordered week before arrived one week after calling almost everyday and speaking to foreign customer service employees. Said it had been sitting for a week at hub collecting dust when we finally got it. Fed-ex guy said they couldn't keep up he was delivering over 200 a day! UPS one time could not find our home and it was on google maps LOL. They need to pay their people more, hire more help, and get some American people that can read off a script for Customer Service!😡

I would suggest to contact Amazon first and give them a chance to make it right. If they won't you always have the option to cancel your membership.
