I am usually complaining about UPS here. Well now it is USPS. I mailed an oil sample First Class with tracking to Blackstone Labs for a very long trip of 120 miles. My receipt says it will be delivered in 2 days (not guaranteed). Well it now has been 10 days and it is still in transit. After initial mailing in NW Indiana it went overnight to a sorting facility in Forest Park, IL. After sitting in Forest Park for 5 days and my complaining to the USPS Consumer Affairs people, it was scanned and sent on it's way to Ft Wayne. I was verbally told by the USPS investigating person that it would be delivered the next day. Well we are now 4 days later since it was found and sent on it's 150 mile trip to Ft. Wayne and it is lost again. I actually got a phone call on Saturday from USPS saying that they are working on it.
What I haven't mentioned is this is the 4th shipment this year to Blackstone that they have screwed up. Two were lost and never heard of again and one arrived 6 days later instead of 2 days. These 4 mailings were sent from four different post offices in two different counties but all were forwarded through Forest Park IL Bulk Mail sorting facility.
Sounds like a systemic problem to me.
