Sarge Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 (edited) Ordered a few parts from BRAZOS two weeks ago. Finally shipped on or about the 20th and then it looks like UPS might have lost track of it at some point? And since when is Florida on the way from TX to OH?

Steve RA Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 It may, however, be on the way to Chine !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Miles Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I have a real hard time doing business with anybody who doesn't offer USPS Priority Mail. Much quicker and less expensive. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Youngeyes Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 I'm tracking two different packages coming from Florida to CT that are now in Ohio. If I give you the numbers, can you snag them for me? Bring them to Kentucky for me at the BITBG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoomy Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 (edited) I have a real hard time doing business with anybody who doesn't offer USPS Priority Mail. Much quicker and less expensive. Pat I don't know about quicker. I just sent a USPS Priority mail package from Chicago area to Streater Illinois. Checked the tracking this morming and for some reason it ended up in Hazelwood, MO. Thats 220 miles Southwest of Streater. Streater is only 122 miles southwest from where I mailed the package from. And to top it off, two days where added to the estimated time of delivery and an extra 440 miles of travel. The logic is lost on me.

UPS in our area has the best drivers/ delivery, but what ever hub they use only has 500# apes working there. Also they use the "weather exception" ALL the time this time of year Then the package gets thrown in the back room for several days. We had overnight shipment, "weather delayed" for 7 DAYS, YEAH right ! ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had 2 problems out of the 50 or so that I have shipped with USPS and a few out of the several dozen that I have received from the USPS. I've had no problems with the many that have come through UPS. The deciding difference for me is the fact that I can get my items in 2-3 days with the USPS while UPS take twice that long. USPS Priority Mail is less expensive also. Pat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveU Posted January 25, 2014 Share Posted January 25, 2014 Looks to me like "an exception to the sorting process" is UPS-ese for "oh sh-t, what the h-ll is this doing here?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
