Which shipping service is the most reliable?

I have been away for a while, but getting ready to sell some photography equipment soon.  Which one is most reliable, UPS, USPS or Fed-Ex?

If you've not sold for awhile, first thing is to check seller information because there may have been some changes you're not aware of.

Also, depending on how long it's been since you last sold, eBay will no doubt treat you like a new seller and put a hold on your payments.

Speaking of payments, are you set up with Managed Payments?

Are you experiencing delays with one service more than the other?

I think rock.star sums it up.  Pack your items well. 

 

 

 

I personally like USPS for middle to smaller sizes because of the flat rate options.

I prefer UPS and the US Postal Service, with shipping labels purchased through pirateship.com.

Do you have any idea how many people work for each of those organizations?

 

The people at the top are big on Goals not Achievements.

 

The Achievements are left to the individual managers of the seemingly endless number of individual locations.

 

In any organization that large some of the managers got there via the Peter Principle while others have not yet reached that level.

 

The sum of the parts and all that.

 

I can only tell you which service I have had the best LUCK with. Luck being the operative word.  But luck could just as easily change tomorrow.

 

The quality of the service depends greatly on whether the package goes through "this" office versus "that" office. And gets handed off to "this" driver versus "that" driver.

 

In essence, based on the variables, the question is unanswerable.
