FREAKIN COVID AND USPS

[LeafersonJr32]

Yeah, sometimes it takes people new to these kind of forums to get the quote down.

I messed up the quote. Jesstrice thought is was me because sometimes we cross eachother. Lol

Ceasefire? Cross each other? Dude, nothing's won't, I promise. I don't have any problem with you, and I'm sorry if you took it that way. It's hard to understand what's coming from you when you try and quote. I know it's happened a couple times. All's good, though.

And the quote thing is because the 3 quote embed thing so I was deleting the first two quotes to just quote the quote I was referring to and I guess that threw it off

TFH order delivered to Denver CO area...

Tuesday 8/18 - payment sent.
Thursday 8/20 - TFH email confirmation received that payment was received and transaction was completed.
Friday 8/21 - USPS tracking indicated the package was moving right along with delivery estimated for Saturday.
Saturday morning 8/22 - TFH package received.

Overall I'm pleased with TFH and USPS services.

It sounds like your package's trip is just beginning! There's no problem with TFH getting the package to USPS, it's everything after. You mean USPS received the package, right?

[Jestrice2002]

Corde, you just need to make sure there's only one "end quote" in there. I think that's your problem. You have to delete as many from the bottom as the top.

Yes the roaches are illegal here, but that's okay with me. I've been raising for 16 years, and I've only stopped breeding worms and crickets this past year. I don't have a good spot for it in my new house yet, but I'm tempted to start up again. The environment in here just wasn't working, so I have up on them within the first few months of moving.

I don't want to hijack this thread, though. I'm sure we'll talk about it more, especially if there's something that pops up in Off Topic!

I had a pack go out Saturday morning and received it today (Monday). Uncommonly quick, especially considering covid and all the commotion about the USPS and the new postmaster decommissioning sorting machines

[LeafersonJr32]

I had a very long tough day at work getting rained on all day...but then I came home and my TFH order was here!!! Now I'm feeling so happy and just completely enjoying every second.

[Jestrice2002]

Oh, shut up, you guys. We don't want to hear about your good luck. We're trying to commiserate, here!

Wonderful! What a great way to end the day! So glad for you

It is very good I'm actually kinda surprised. Most places that I have tried that have been so hyped up hardly ever live up to expectations

Crap, I typed out a paragraph and a half and lost it.

The flat rate bubble envelopes we all know and love from buying kratom? I have a bad feeling they're being phased out.

[Kaitlanfutbol]

I have a bad feeling they're being phased out.

Why is that? They should phase out those chinsy cardboard envelope ones instead. Or raise the price of the bubble wrap ones by a dollar if it's a cost issue. Those things are useful.

IT HAPPENED AGAIN!!! Another TFH order has vanished within the vast, byzantine network of the USPS. Last I heard, it had left the Fort Worth distribution center, at which point it dropped out of sight. When and where will it reappear? Could be anytime, anywhere. I've lived in third world nations with better mail service. %^$*###

Rant rant rant

[herbalhippie]

I had a couple orders disappear into the Ft Worth Vortex for days. Then they popped back out.

I've had that happen, too. This time, my package popped out but it hasn't popped back in again.

Just my experience, but my 3-day priority shipments always come in 3 days, and occasionally 2. I haven't had any of the issues most in this thread seem to have, and I'm not sure why. Maybe it's just where I live or something, or I'm in the proximity of a major regional sorting facility. Usually it goes from the vendors state directly to mine without any stops, or at least any scans in between. Sorry that everyone is having problems still. The covid thing is only supposed to get worse through the end of the year.

How has the USPS been treating everyone lately? I have something en route that's going on time so far, but at the rate it's going it seems like it could be late. It's been in their hands since Tuesday and estimated to be delivered Monday, which is a little slower than I'm used to. it is first class though, I usually use priority. Of course the amount of mail-in ballots could be preventative of regular mail, over 50 million people have already early voted, but I was just wondering about if anyone has had issues very recently.

[leafeater]

Yeah, I just had one disappear in Ohio last week from Leaves of Eden.
I ordered samples and everything I ordered is gonna be out of stock
by time I get my package.

[herbalhippie]

I've ordered some incense that will be mailed out tomorrow it will be interesting to see how long it takes to get to me.

[Playerpiano72]

My pack from LoE is due to be delivered today, and it has made it to my town early this morning so should be OFD very shortly. From the time it got into USPS hands, it took 6 days for first class. Not terrible considering the volume of mail going through right now.

Do they really sell out that quickly? Mine spent awhile in Ohio, but after a few days it arrived in Indianapolis, which I think is a main hub where they'll fly it to your area. Don't lose hope, right now USPS has been missing a lot of scans. I've had one go from pre-shipment to delivery. I thought the vendor just never sent it out but it showed up randomly 7-8 days later.

Crap, I typed out a paragraph and a half and lost it.

I hate when that happens.

[herbalhippie]

Checking back in.

I ordered incense shipped to myself and two of my daughters. All three were labeled on the 26th, shipped from Wisconsin on the 27th and will be received by two of us tomorrow and the third the next day. So 2 days from Wisconsin to WA and OR. Not bad.

[Mr. keaton]

I shipped a hoodie back to Colorado and it took two weeks. I ordered from Florida and it came in 3 days WTF?

[leafeater]

My pack from Leaves of Eden took 7 days to go from Ohio to NC. Now another pack is delayed. But my mail is being searched though so who knows!!

USPS has been mostly on time for me for years. With Covid, I'd get priority mail packages maybe a day or two late. Then last week I ordered a package from a vendor that lives about 50 minutes from me. He shipped it on Tuesday and it's still not arrived. Keep in mind, priority mail from this vendor had akways arrived the next day as it only has 2 stops to go through. So yeah my package is very late and I'm shocked by this as it's not like it's coming from the other side of the country. It's coming from inside the state and very close.

But oh well, I'm sure it will be here Monday or tue. I'm just very glad the local shop started carrying Kratom at pretty affordable prices haha.

[Playerpiano72]

I had two orders mailed out Monday afternoon from different parts of the country that both made it to my town already two days ahead of the estimated delivery date. Mail gets here early so I should have it by 10am. ~36 hours for priority mail, especially now considering all the circumstances, is pretty impressive. I believe first class mail is slowed down by a day or two though, but maybe since the mail-in ballots are mostly all done it will be back to normal. I'm not sure if covid is still affecting the mail, even though the case count continues to hit new records weekly. Definitely use priority.

Edit: just had a first class item get sent out from halfway across the country Tuesday evening and arrive this (Thursday morning) at 9am. If anything, the mail seems to be moving fast right now, or maybe I'm just lucky.
