OT: What's the longest you've waited for Priority mail?

Hey guys. Just curious as to what is the longest time you've waited for priority mail to arrive to you? I ask this because a board member supposedly sent me a Priority flat rate box with cards and it was sent with insurance. It's been 2 weeks and nothing yet. It was coming from TX to CA. I hate the PO sometimes.

    UGH! I was hoping you'd say 3 weeks or 3 months.
    This sucks.

    Is there tracking numbers you can call the post office with?

    I waited a month for my football packs from the 80's pack rip we did on these boards. It was shipped from IL on 8/3/06 and I didn't get it in Las Vegas until 9/4/06.

    Yes, they can track the insurance # so they say.
    It was sent insured, so I was suppose to sign for it.
    I hope my mail carrier doesn't collect cards.

    About two weeks, but this was during the height of the Anthrax scare and the package passed through areas of the country where the checks and testing were much more strict.

    Scott, that was sent priority mail?
    If so, that gives me some hope that it's still in transit.

    Yep. Priority mail in one of the video sized VCR tape boxes.

    I mailed a box to a guy last month from ca to az should have took 2 days right. Nope according to the tracking number it went from ca all the way to pa then made its way back to az took 24 days and i sent it priority mail . How the hell does it get sent all the way to pa from ca. all the guy at the po counter told me was "it happens"

    About a month and a half once for a priority mailer.

    Lady at the post office always tells me to send things first class; she swears things get their faster, and in my experiences they do.
