Usually Pre-Shipment means the label was created by USPS has not received the package yet, this would be a problem on the retailers end not USPS ......

I hate USPS. I will always pick another if available. I currently have a package that was scheduled for 5/7. Ever since that day, there has been no update. My last incident with them was I bought some supps from a place in PA, I live in PA and usually get things next day from them. Package went in limbo and showed up in Florida....took 2 weeks to get.

That sucks. I’m in Pa as well and in the last month things have been arriving normal again. Prior to that it was the worst. I still pay extra if FedEx or ups is an option, just in case.

Yeah...DPS actually told me to not use them and then they raised the USPS option an extra dollar over UPS to deter future incidents.

I still exclusively use USPS.
And overall, they've done exceptionally well for me.

* Here's a pet peeve though...
Everyone knows that USPS has been experiencing some difficulties lately.
So my pet peeve is the fact that a couple of companies I've purchased from recently opted to hold onto my order (and my cash) for a few days before turning it over to USPS.
REALLY .... So the fact that my package may be held up in the mail isn't bad enough??
... You've decided to hold it up before it ever got to them.
:mad:
.. Rant over. LOL

*Of course I'm not referring to Apex-Alchemy, who Always gets it in the mail ASAP.

Brother ... I never implied that you should.

I even posted that my recent experience was a pet peeve of mine.

You're welcome to join me in my pet peeve, though (if you like).

... But I don't recommend it.

Not sure if there's truth to this or not, but I read a post on the internet...wait it must be true lol...that FedEx handles most of the packages for USPS. They ship them, but do not sort and that is why our status gets stuck at "In Transit Arriving Late".

Try waiting for international orders from usps, 2 weeks pass and you think must be here soon to get an update it’s just arrived in another state 😟 currently waiting on 4 packages from different company’s.

Shipped an eBay sale package on 4/22/21 to NY (location is THREE HOURS from me) and it still hasn't arrived. eBay has now taken it upon themselves to refund the buyer which is a big, BIG LOL from me. I guess it'll be okay when the buyer receives their package AND has their money back?

I've been working with the post office that was supposed to receive the package and route to the buyer. They've been very kind, empathetic and all, but they haven't been able to make anything happen.

In the meantime, I've scheduled a package intercept so the buyer never sees the package - this is all just beyond bogus and frustrating. I did file for a missing package research case (closed within 5 days, no results) and filed a claim (no word on claim).

tl;dr - never, ever, ever, ever, EVER use USPS until they get their sh!t sorted.

I am pretty sure DHL now has that contract.

Oh wait, so package delays are potentially on DHL, not USPS? I swear I've had next to 0 issues ever with USPS until this year. The whole "In Transit, Arriving Late" message was never a thing for me.

Not to quote myself here, but somehow, someway, USPS actually came through in not that long of a time (compared to others).

I'm guessing i'll have the package back in my possession any day now. I firmly stand by never using USPS for important/expensive packages ever again.

Now to deal with this scum company, eBay, and get the transaction sorted out. eBay decided to not only refund the buyer, but to rob me of the "final value fees" as well. :)
