I haven't had anything lost or ruined by the USPS, but I have had 3 Prioity Mail packages take over 10 days to reach their destination.  They blame it on the coof.  That way no one can be held responsible.

Mind boggling numbers, a struggle to get trucks on the road on time.

If I were shipping anything I cared a great deal about, I would ship it air express open an account and try to save on your rate. Pack smart size matters.

Heads up there is a coupon on line for 20% off ground shipping. I would post , but I am sure forum rules prohibit.

As Dan said declare a value while this cost extra and does not imply insurance! Insurance is often covered in homeowners or renters insurance.

Oh well I am sure I have messed up somewhere in what I said so forgive me.

seems kind of crazy to me that anyone (forum team) would care if someone dropped a coupon code for shipping stuff...
