USPS, YOU ARE HORRIBLE

I have  3 packages thatat have been a USPS facility for a week, which is 92 miles from my home, it keeps saying its on its way. I DONT blame Ebay at all. I can understand if 1 package was stuck in transit, but 3 packages at the same facility. I think someone isnt doing their job. We have no bad weather, my address is the same for 18+ years. USPS get your **bleep** together!!!

No one from USPS is here....sorry. 

I haven't had any issues with USPS. Sounds like the issue stems at the distribution center you speak of. 

Maybe you should call them and ask what's up.

Let me guess..... Indy? 

 

If not, let us know what city and USPS service was used as a heads up for other members.

Are they with eBay shipping labels on them or are they packages where postage was put on them at the counter by a clerk at a post office?

Look at packages that you get every time to see if they are eBay shipping labels or something else.

I have had no problems with out-going shipments from my post office in years.

I buy collections and most of my sellers don't use eBay shipping labels...usually they use stamps or FedEx.

But then, I mail everything out in the post office with postage from a clerk for tracking at the counter.

It could be where your shipping hub is located...some shipping hubs are getting combined and some are closing...per THE postmaster...who is resigning.

We don't know your city or state to know if it's one of those hubs.

For every one having no issues with Ground Advantage; I am very jealous and don't understand it.. USPS is at least very late on over 90% of my packages and for nearly half, they take long enough to cause customers to e-mail me asking what's up with their item.  I have over 20 open lost item cases and I don't sell that much.. not even a sale per day.  I deal with opening new lost item cases, e-mailing customers updates, filing claims and checking on previously shipped items for over an hour every day.  Oklahoma City is part of the problem and many packages get stuck there, but also other cities, sometimes Indy, Houston, Louisville, or just somewhere random.  An item just got delivered that I mailed in DECEMBER.. and my packages also bounce around the country with no rhyme or reason, a package destined for California could end up in New York then Houston then back to OKC then Denver then Houston again then California.. it's freaking crazy.

So, obviously this isn't an eBay issue or your problem that you can fix.  USPS tracking sometimes doesn't update accurately.  A few hubs have had issues (Indianapolis)... Occasionally packages I ship take a tour of the USA... one recently went from IL where we are to the east coast then finally out to California.  For myself USPS has been more consistent for the past 2 years or so.  2020 was horrendous
