Then you get a shipping/tracking confirmation on the very first day. Great. Next day it's in Memphis, next day later it's in Denver, next day after that it hits Salt Lake City.. and there sits, 20 miles away, for SEVEN MORE DAYS. | ||

Ordered in, like, August to make sure they'd be here by wedding in October. Got one around Christmas. The others still aren't here. However, I did receive a package of broken plastic parts that resembles nothing my wife and I have ever ordered. So there's that. | ||

I have had BOTH of my local Post Offices try to cheat me with too-short tape measures. I am going to start bringing my Own tape measure. These were Pre-Paid boxes that they tried to Add Fees to. I told them, "It has a paid label and postage... Are you gonna take it, or not?" But I have decided that for cross-county, USPS is still better than FedEx. | ||
