Ebay buyers the USPS is terrible. Do you believe they are this bad?

This is the number on the website that I call. My sorry azz mailman only comes 5 days a week & usually delivers after 5 o'clock so I couldn't call anyway. I have a business & regardless if I want it or not should get mail every day. Other people in the neighborhood have told me that they think he skips streets. I noticed it a few years ago before anyone else mentioned it. My post office would know better than to mess with me. LOL. They would look bad if all of a sudden they lost a couple of grand. It would definitely show up in the books & someone would probably get in trouble when the annual sales dropped. I know about international shipping that is why I didn't mention it. I have had problems shipping to Italy & Mexico. The only thing I can figure out is that is has a 5 digit postal code like our zip code. This code is being misread as a US address. Most USPS employees only do enough to not get fired. COME ON they make $20 an hour starting out. DO YOUR JOB RIGHT USPS. If I wasn't wasting so much on reshipping & USPS mistakes I could pay someone $20 an hour too. If anyone works for the USPS & is offended... then slap the guy who works with you that doesn't care about the quality of his work because they are making you look bad.

Funny, I just found out a large package that I shipped out last week showed up to the recipient with all the contents missing and the box completely trashed...

I live in a small town. I can't even get an international money order cashed at my bank. I've got over $10O worth just sitting. When I gave them to the teller, the bank people looked at me like I handed them a disease. LOL.

That is what I am talking about. I have had some buyer's say this and that standing up for the post office. But I ship thousands of packages. Most buyers only mail 50 pieces of mail a year. The phone # is useless unless you want someone to be mean to you. LOL. Go to the local post office. They might be nicer because they see you or know you.

Sorry to hear that. But that is how they are. Even with insurance. You have to fight for it. Its like is 3 hours of my time worth this. Speaking of receiving smashed goods, I buy a lot of plants through the mail. One box had a this side up on all 6 sides of the box to show how to carry it. The mailman put my box on the porch on its side. If I had seen him I would have slapped some sense into him.

Last week they didn't take my packages. Packages are envelopes with well protected seeds. So don't get this idea of 74 boxes sitting on my porch. I have a small mailbox and it filled it. Probably about 12. The guy didn't take them but he put my mail between the screen door and my front door. I called the office to complain and called the next day to talk to his supervisor. They acted like I did something and started making lame excuses for why he didn't take them. Such as (in a very snide tone) "IT ISN'T HIS RESPONSIBILITY TO REACH DOWN INTO YOUR MAILBOX LOOKING FOR OUTGOING MAIL". They were sticking out of the top. LOL So I told them to stay off of my property. I don't get USPS delivery to my house any more. I told them if that is the service they provide, I don't want it. I worked for the UPS during the holidays almost 20 years ago. They wanted it done fast. That was the only concern. It didn't matter if you wrote fragile all over the box. Usually it was already broken by the time I got to it. Sometimes the trailers were packed so tight you have to squeeze your fingers in and walk backwards until it fell. You can't read fragile when it is packed that way. So I have an inside view of what goes on at UPS.

I've complained more than once. Right now I am playing phone tag with the Federal Agent. It might be FBI. It is how he tries to present himself on the messages. It is funny that they are only available M-F 9 to 5. They know I work during the day and been quite vocal that I should not have to not work in order to communicate with them. Our tax dollars hard at work. I have been leaving messages like if you were truly concerned with resolving this matter you would leave a message when I can contact you by phone. They never answer when I call. After I told the postmaster and several other people I didn't want that guy on my property they said I have to put it in writing. I told them the only person I am writing a letter to is my congressmen and President Bush to do what ever they can to see to it that postal workers do not get a raise and will not repeat what else I said to them. LOL. But I don't think I have to write a letter. They are acting like "Oh Yeah. Well we are gonna bring it anyway." I said "You better read the revised trespassing laws of this state before you trespass on my property after I have given you ample notice regardless of what authority you think the USPS has." I guess they think I need to receive mail. If more people were like me and not accept poor service it would save the consumer more money. I can mail payment after I check the total online. I don't need the USPS and showing them. Yes I will lose sales on ebay shipping via UPS for a more expensive rate but I am a lot busier this year because my company has really grown. So I don't have as much time. It only pays about $6 per hour so I can trade it for some extra time to bs on mylot. It is a shame that not a single one of them has apologized. I usually spend $200-$500 a month on shipping and they don't care. I had the worst mailman. One day I saw him coming out of someone's house which I thought was odd.

The mailman is supposed to take outgoing mail as well as deliver mail. You can complain to the postmaster general he will be obligated to investigate. I think you have lazy postal workers where you are and they need to either do their job or find another one. Your taxes pay these people and you have the right to the service.
