Posted this in Good Morning also, but USPS struck again.

Amazon says package delivered last Sat. I went on Amazon today to check because it wasn't delivered. USPS says they did.

This is getting old...

Sorry to hear buckeye... I have had the best of luck with Amazon however it gets to my door. Since I joined prime, 100% 2 day delivery.
on wood!

The only one I have a problem with is that stupid Fedex Smartpost. Anything that I have had shipped that way will arrive eventually, but it usually takes at least a week to get here.
I have an item that my wife ordered through a local store that has been bouncing around since last week. It went from Ct. to Ohio to another location in Ohio to Pa. to another location in Pa. so far and Fedex still has it. If they had just mailed it, it would have arrived two days ago.

I forgot to call them. They claimed something was delivered and it never was. I reported it online and they said I had to call. I needed it and ordered another but forgot to call and get credit. It was USPS

Never had UPS or Fedex hand it off. Is this common in certain locales?

They both do in my area.

Fedex Smartpost and UPS Surepost advertise nationwide service. I suspect the difference is where the item is shipping from and whether the shipper thinks that cost is more important than customer satisfaction.

We're fighting with the USPS to get any service at our place, at all, right now. After talking to the postmaster at both our local post office and the one that our contract carrier is contracted through, we've gotten nowhere. First they told us to put a box on the street and we'll get mail, we did, we haven't. Then it was well maybe they'll deliver, maybe they won't, we don't really have control over the carrier. Then it was you might need to put it at the highway but, we don't know for sure.

Yesterday I ordered something from an Amazon seller and this morning I see tracking for USPS. I contacted them to tell them it won't get here that way, can they please switch to UPS or FedEx. Their reply was free shipping orders go USPS, period. Not an offer to change to another carrier at an additional fee, just that's how it is, deal with it. I told them to cancel the order then, I'm not standing in line at the post office to pick up a package that may not ever even end up there, it defeats the whole purpose of ordering it from Amazon. If I need to go somewhere, I might as well just go to the Welding Supply shop the next town over and be done with it.

I bet they send it USPS anyway and then they'll have to deal with the return and be out the postage. Oh well.

By the way, not all Amazon Prime is 2 day anymore. They've made some changes to the program that I personally think suck. Amazon Prime No Longer Pledges Free 2-Day Shipping on All Items | Money Talks News
