Feel free to start that topic or poll.

Personally, I am good. I know the USPS is not going away or being privatized any time soon.

i have been having a nightmare with the USPS.
This is an actual tracking history from a package that I sent. I had to deal with an annoyed buyer contacting me several times and requesting a refund while their item was still on the way. I had many similar examples, but this may be the worst.

I think you're right, it's shouldn't be privatized. It should be cannibalized!

Well, it's actually working out for me pretty good now. My relationship with the USPS is as limited as I can make it.

I only really get low priority junk thru the mail anyway. Advertisements, junk mail and Christmas cards.

All my important stuff is on-line.

The USPS is "not" efficient. It's hemorrhaging money! How much of "your" tax dollars has it lost?....

Don't answer that.

I guess you're right. It can't get any worse, it can only get better.

Sounds good. That is your choice. My choice is to maintain a great relationship with them. Free choice, as American as apple pie, no?

Probably no worse than the inefficiency of minting billions of worthless cents every year.

Nothing wrong with that I guess. I don't know why, but I actually give my carrier a 20 buck gift certificate each year for Christmas.

I suppose.

I can't believe you just said that?!?

Did you say "worthless cents" on a coin fourm?

I have shipped and received thousands of packages with the USPS over the years, and have only been dissatisfied twice. First time was when they lost an expensive shipment. Tracking didn't help, it was just gone. That was perhaps 5 years ago. Second, which was only about a month ago, the branch had a long line with a few folks coughing, and I chose to drop the package into the secure drop box rather than wait in line for a receipt. It was on a Saturday just before pickup. By Monday PM the package still did not show up on tracking, so I planned to call them Tue AM. On Tue AM I got an email from the recipient that it had just arrived, and he was stunned with the quick shipment. Tracking showed "label created" and "delivered" with no other info between. Very weird, but at least they did not lose it. Other than these two experiences, all has gone well (enough) that I have no complaints about the USPS. I have plenty of complaints about UPS, FedEx, and DHL (not international, that has been flawless), and make every effort to send USPS unless absolutely forced to do one of the others.

Yes. I. Did.

A cent that costs two cents to make is actually less than worthless and completely unnecessary!

Death to Zincoln! Replace with an NIFC BRONZE Lincoln!

Not if it's an MS-70!

Come on man, give it up. You're not going to win this battle.

Never surrender. Never give up.

When is the last time you pulled an MS-70 Zincoln from the wild? Probably never. Mint sets are a more likely source of high grade cents, so just make them for collectors and since they are just for collectors, no reason to not use the original bronze composition.
