1-While I agree with you, it has no relevance to the thread.
2-Tracking dosen't give a rats butt on how you spell, only the tracking number

As I stated before, USPS sucks for tracking info. About the only time it's correct is while you are grabbing it out of your mailbox.

It matters if you can't spell your address properly.

IMO, no you should not be concerned, if you are, contact the dealer/seller
I only use USPS to ship, and it's mostly because of Canada. Most of my Canadian customers have asked how I ship and say, "Please send USPS" or "UPS does not work for Canada". I know I could ride my bicycle to deliver in Canada faster than USPS, but I think it's the only option.....correct?

It's USPS up until the border then it goes to Canada Post (Canadian version of USPS) unless it's specified for a courier (FedEx, Purolator etc...)

I live on the Arkansas Oklahoma border. If I mail myself a letter from the Ark. side to Ark. side. I'll get it the next day.

If I go 1/2 mile into Oklahoma and mail it back to me.
It goes to Little Rock Arkansas
then goes to Oklahoma city
then to my town in Arkansas
then it would go to me.

And thats a 3 or 4 day trip when I was a 1/2 mile away to began with.

Local mail here goes over 100 miles away to Saint John NB, gets sorted there, comes back here then gets delivered. I'm used to getting mail everyday, now I get mail 2 or 3 times a week if I'm lucky.

Juan, 'Brown' goes into the Great White North, but there is no ground option, only overnight which is stupid expensive. The items that I've shipping to Canada have always worried me because the post office doesn't allow the items to be covered with insurance when you list it as a gift to help the receiver avoid taxes.

You can bitch about Rc4wd but it is useless, it's the shipping that is the issue. Guess you could have drove there and picked it up if it would have been cheaper and faster.

It matters cause this kid (god I hope its a kid) expects people to make an effort and reply yet he cant make the effort to form a legible sentence.

How long is to long?

Seems to be their way of business.. They can try to blame it all on the USPS they want, but when a person can see that they sat on their thumbs for 10-12 days before actually getting the stuff to the post office, I think a person has a right to be a little pissed pissed. TCS, and RPP (and many others) seem to manage just fine with their orders..

I can mail you a post card, it'll be there next day too. Same thing if you return the favor.

I can order something from RPP shipped via USPS and it'll make it from Cali to Little Rock in a day or two. Then, if I'm lucky, it'll take two more days to make it from Little Rock to me. Sometimes its three days. Sometimes they'll fawk it up and send it to Memphis (seriously), turn it around, and in another day or two it'll show up at my house.

Fedex does the same thing. I sold some stuff a while back to a guy in the same state as me he lived 40 miles north of me. I shipped the stuff overnight fedex and it went all the way to the airport just a few miles from his house caught a plane and went to southern California. It then went thru the sorting facility there then caught another plane back to our airport and got placed on a truck and was delivered just a few miles down the road, It did this all in 13hrs
