I am just wondering if anyone else is having delivery delays with USPS. Sent a package to PSA picked up last Friday and is still in transit.

collecting RAW Topps baseball cards 1952 Highs to 1972. looking for collector grade (somewhere between psa 4-7 condition). let me know what you have, I'll take it, I want to finish sets, I must have something you can use for trade.
looking for Topps 71-72 hi's-62-53-54-55-59, I have these sets started
Of course, its COVID + Holidays.
And Postmaster General Louis DeJoy is still there working his magic.
The populace needs to direct their outrage into calling or writing their elected representatives. Only if those representatives then apply pressure onto the USPS Board of Governors will DeJoy possibly be removed anytime soon.
Painfully yes.

USPS has lost 3 packages in 5 months. Had lost 3 packages in the last 10 years. Packages being sent nowhere close to destination and multiple other issues and now rates are going up. COVID is an excuse that too many businesses are using to excuse their poor service
OK...figure this one out. I purchased a card (1972 Sal Bando) on eBay. I never bothered checking the tracking and I received the card in a timely manner, on December 3.
I was on eBay checking the tracking of another package when for some reason I clicked on the tracking of the Bando. This is it:

The only thing I can think is that the tracking label somehow came off and was affixed to another package?
Apparently clearing customs once wasn't enough.

This has been the worst I have seen from USPS in recent memory. Good news has been that that package has always arrived.
Or been received.
I had a card I purchased stay in Tulsa OK for 8 days. No not registered....

Yes, I have one that I won from @Late1970sTopps that was shipped on November 30 and was last scanned in Denver on 12/3. Off the radar for 9 days now 🙄
Sent a package to Utah 12/7. 4 days no movement. Then it was in Mississippi, 2 hours later in Texas. Next day Saturday it was in Memphis and Utah at the same moment. Delivery was to be Friday 12th. As long as it gets there.
This is definitely the worst I remember it. I've got one from November 25th ship date that's still showing at original destination with no movement. Crazy.

Just to reiterate...
100% agree. Packages taking forever and just showing no progress a week at a time or being bounced around the same city. Just unacceptable and it's not like they haven't raised their rates 20 times. The worst I've ever seen!
About one week behind schedule here.
Kiss me twice.....let's party.
$2000 card shipped 1 wk ago last Monday.
Registered and insured !
And it shows still in Tampa, going to MD.
Wtf..
$9k card shipped registered last Monday from IL to GA. Just left Atlanta depot. Was scheduled to arrive last Friday but even the clerk at the PO said it was going to take longer than that.
There was a similar thread about the USPS back in April, I believe, and I told everyone to pay attention. The current postmaster general at that time was being pushed out, and the replacement was going to be someone that was going to intentionally inflict damage upon the USPS. If you are truly angry about the current state of things, call or write your elected representatives, and ask them to put pressure on the USPS Board of Governors to remove Postmaster General Louis DeJoy. That is really the only way to get him removed quickly. Absent of that, he will most likely be in a position to continue to inflict damage on the USPS for several more years, at least.
That's a lot of customs dizzy. I had a package from Dublin Ireland get delivered to Atlanta in 5 days just last week (shipped Dec 5, got here the 10th), was surprised actually as the last one took about 9-10 days if memory serves.
20 of the labels that I processed in the last 7-10 days haven't even scanned as accepted yet. Not good.
I have to much S**t; so if you working on sets or are a player/team collector, send me your want list, with conditions desired. Keep in mind I have a another job so please allow me a few days to respond.
It’s really bad. Worst ever.
I have a card coming in that has been moving in the system. Problem is, it was mailed 15 minutes in Mass. it took a trip to Milwaukee and made its way back to Mass. Now it’s bouncing around and today it has this message that I’ve never seen before and will probably delay it even more.
Well my card is back on the radar after 13 days. So far it seems like nothing is getting permanently lost, so that’s the main thing I guess.
Sorry to read all the delivery issues.
I'm probably jinxing this but:
Delivered in 3 days including a weekend USPS. 12/12-12/14
It was assigned a PSA order # this morning. 12/15
I sold a raw Griffey rookie on Nov 24, and it's somewhere between two small towns. I shipped First Class, and when I called the post office they said it's probably lost. Found out all mail that loses it's label just gets shipped to a warehouse in Georgia. Not sure why the post office wouldn't just hold onto that package without a label until someone calls and asks them about it, to see if they can figure it out. The guy I sold to filed a complaint after a week, so eBay has that payment on hold. Now I'm thinking I'm most likely out 60 bucks.
After 11 days it finally has a scan in DC area. Buyer being reasonable too.. hopefully delv. Monday.
Dropped off a package on December 16th at the main Post Office before the snow. It was just scanned Sunday the 20th as being received. It sat in the Post Office 4 days untouched for no reason.
I ordered a package from BBCE on Dec 9th ...it was dropped off at the PO that day and STILL says package acceptance pending...WTF
But there are still a few days left in 2020 and if you haven’t figured it out yet?

Had a card shipped from Canada 3 weeks ago and is still sitting in Canada.
Post of the year.
I will add that "Covid" has somehow managed to DAMAGE 3 packages the last 5 weeks. Prior to that I had 1 in 4 years.

i actually had a package delivered yesterday. I didn't realize the post office was making Sunday deliveries
I've got couple of packages squatting in Walpole Ma and Stamford Ct.
In some cases Sundays and select holidays for packages
It’s by far the worst it has ever been. Have one package that departed a distribution center in Pa. 3 weeks ago and has not been scanned since. Have several others that seem to be lost. Have one that was “processed thru my local distribution center a week ago and still don’t have it. The distribution center is 5 miles from my house. Sent a priority package 10 days ago and hasn’t been scanned since.
have a few cards coming in that are having massive delays.
with that being said, everything that i sold recently thats over $50, i have forked/will fork out the extra $8 to send fedex ground or higher. a ton of impatient people out there that are opening cases the second they can that are immune to reality. and with the amount of time that these delays are occuring, you pretty much have zero recourse on recollecting the money should time expire on the case.
In what can only be described as a Festivus miracle, my card finally made it to me today. It was a signed Gerry Cheevers rookie. Not a cheap one that I wanted to be lost forever!
Been all over the board. 11 days to deliver something 3 hours away. Just had something ship out Saturday and deliver in CA today. That was quick for a 32 hour drive (2,200 mile trip)!

So, will the postal deliveries improve after Christmas day you think?? Serious question.

I would say things should start to get back to normal 2-3 weeks after Christmas when they have a chance to get caught up and volumes drop.
There will be a lot of Christmas presents that won't be delivered before Christmas
My brother informed me yesterday the card he got me for Christmas won’t make it to me in time. It took 11 days to get from Cleveland to Akron. I’m in Texas BTW.
