PSA shipping back to customers

I"m wondering when PSA sends your submissions back to you is it priority mail? first class? It shows shipment went out 3/6, it usually doens't take more than a couple days to get to my P.O...but so far nothing this time. Not sure if it is hung up somewhere...or my mail carrier just hasn't bothered to leave me a note (which has happened before). I'm also guessing the chance of registered mail getting lost is next to nothing??

    They always send them back to me registered, which often takes longer since it has to be signed for by every person that touches the package at the PO.
    But I've never had a problem with a registered package not making it or being tampered with, so I'm sure you're fine.
    In my experience my carrier wants to get that responsibility out of his bag as soon as possible, so they don't forget to leave you a note on those.

    Griffins said it best. And it will take longer because of the security associated with registered mail - it gets locked down at every step along the way.

    Yeah it will probably show up tomorrow. I do have the worst mail carrier ever though. The last three times I've got packages back..no knocks on the door..not even a notice left...I had to call the P.O. and ask them if the package was there...they would say "if you don't have a notice, it's not here"...and I'd say...well, go check.....then wa-la...package is there...very irritating.

    A couple of the cards I'm selling from the submission were being sold in order to buy this....rare lenox back T206....I'm wayyyy to excited..image

    Well said.

    Our mail carrier goes out of his way to do extra stuff for us.

    Of course, it probably helps that we give him a small bribe ...

    Registered mail is the safest way to ship any package, so I wouldn't worry either. It does take longer than regular mail because of the special handling, as Griffins said.
