vermontensium Moderator United States 16677 Posts	Posted 03/09/2010 6:47 pm From what I understand, USPS Priority Mail should take 3 days anywhere in the U.S. guaranteed. Has anyone ever experienced delays receiving Priority Mail longer than 3 days? The reason I'm asking, is it's been 7 days and nothing yet. I'm growing a little concerned I've contacted both PO's and they said wait till 3/15. I will definitely file a complaint over this one. Thanks. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff

Chancellor Sutler Pillar of the Community United States 1372 Posts	Posted 03/09/2010 7:17 pm I have been using priority mail for a few years and usually it's no more than 4 days. I don't think there's any guarantee of delivery time except with express mail. Check the postmark when you get it....probably laid on the sender's kitchen table for 5 of those 7 days.

NPCoin Valued Member United States 108 Posts	Posted 03/10/2010 01:35 am Express Mail offers a money back guarantee, but that in itself still does not guarantee that it will be delivered when committed. I recently had a package take 5 days on EMS Overnight. Most of my Priority Mail lately is taking four to seven days, and First Class mail is getting to me within two weeks. If your mail is going through the Denver sorting facility, expect quite a large delay. I had a Priority Mail package checked into that facility on a Monday morning and not leave until that Thursday night. And that was a Priority Mail package. Report this Post to the Staff

vermontensium Moderator United States 16677 Posts	Posted 03/10/2010 02:50 am If you mean delivery confirmation, this guy sent this to me priority mail only. No extra services. That's why I am thinking I'm in trouble. I'm afraid that I'll never see it. It is very upsetting to me. I'll give it a couple more days though. swcoin.ecrater.com Report this Post to the Staff
cwb1877 Pillar of the Community United States 1659 Posts	Posted 03/10/2010 05:28 am There is no guaranteed delivery time with Priority Mail. Only Express Mail offers that. I once had an Express Mail package that was delivered late and I did indeed get a refund on the full amount of the shipping. How did you pay? If you paid by PayPal, you will be covered for the full purchase price (including shipping) should the package become "lost". Report this Post to the Staff
