And we wonder why USPS looses money every year?

USPS certainly has occasional problems but frankly, they've been at least as reliable as other shippers, perhaps more so.

Shipping by any carrier other than USPS means 3x (or more) the cost so I'm happy to use them when possible. Less pesky paperwork too.

Funny, but yes the USPS is miles better than the other options price wise and handling wise. The USPS is self funded and "loses money" mainly due to political figures wanting to privatize the thing, fortunately it's a constitutionally established service. I won't get into a political debate on a numismatic forum, but this can all be googled to see what's actually going on. Also, FedEx and UPS make use of the USPS when the "final mile" is not profitable.

I have been waiting on 2 packages since mid December
from Europe. According to tracking they have not left
the continent. I would rather have items than a refund.

That's a good one.

I had a package a few weeks ago that bounced back and forth between New York and Amsterdam a few times....it looks like they need to look into what's going on there.

Maybe it went west around the world.

Does anyone know if the package was actually in the Netherlands?
