I know y’all are used to seeing this...

Packages in constant states of flow, carrying that goodness of coins to and fro! Hey that rhymes!

What the most you can recall having active on the tracking screen? And by active I mean including delivered within, say, hmmmm, 2 weeks.
I’m sure I’m an amateur compared to some of you dealers!

    Sometimes some strange things happen.
    The one I really dislike is ebay telling your customer a delivery date. Like ebay is actually handling your package. Then, when it sits somewhere at the post office and shows up late, the customer dings your shipping time stars because it was late.
    I was expecting a package yesterday, with a 'guaranteed' delivery date of 3-25.......uh huh......
    Shipping is just one of those things that's out of everyone's hands......

    As long as you get it and the coin is what you expected, i can't see the reason for dinging anything, especially shipping.

    My wife had a package (intended for here in NYS) that went from origin in NC, to Chicago, to Mass., to Los Angeles, to Phoenix, to Chicago again, back to LA and then to NYS...That was pretty amazing...Cheers, RickO

    That is bad when the post office does that. But I can't see getting after the seller. The seller has no choice when it leaves his hand. :)
