I have made enough from my recent TMP yardsales that I was able to purchase a Printrbot Simple 3d printer. It was supposed to arrive today but no dice. I am really sad now. USPS you have let me down, again…
Is there someone in government I can gripe at? That is all, rant over. *Sigh*

Write the USPS a nice letter describing your problem. Be sure to include SASE.

Good one Robert!

Is the problem that they say it was delivered, but it's not? I've had that happen recently. It is annoying as sin.

Hopefully, the package arrives tomorrow…or Saturday at the latest.

I have had excellent experience with USPS delivery. Right now however I am waiting on a pack of miniatures from Germany and getting a bit nervous.

Plenty, not that it'll do you any good.

I feel your pain.

I recently had a package "Depart" the nearby USPS Distribution center *10 times* (!) before arriving at my home. And 2 of those departures sent the package to another state! A messed up bar code on the package was the problem.

Another package disappeared off tracking for a week!

I have better luck getting packages from overseas.

That's terrible! What day is it? Day 3? Day 4? The horror! wink

Good things come to those who wait!

It's insured, right?

Now you know where the term "Going Postal" comes from, we should be allowed to rant and rage sometimes with these institutions that don't actually care yet still want us to pay.

Why is this even a thread? Your problem is with the post office take your gripe to them.

USPS has lost three packages of mine in the past two months. I've never had bad service from them until now, so I'm assuming it's the specific carrier assigned to my route. Luckily, I know the postmaster personally!

I think he is just being cheeky. I doubt he was serious.

And if the Post Office wasn't intentionally starved of funds, things might be a little better …

I for cannot wait to.play with his new 3D printer!

Well, the just reduced postage rates for the first time I can ever recall in my lifetime, and I'm a dinosaur, so it doesn't appear they're actually hurting that bad for money.
