[AT] shipping wars

John you are going to be particularly proud when you order something 
delivered on UPS only to have them turn it over to the
USPS for delivery.  I think they call that "UPS Smart Post".  Stay clear of 
it if you can!

No, not the TV show, more like me and the post office. Its hard to work on 
tractors when those guys keep losing my parts. Today is the second package 
in 2 weeks they have lost. The first was lost in Louisiana, the second in 
Indiana. Basically they make it from the shipper to the post office and then 
vanish.  I don’t know why they offer tracking services, because their 
response is “we know it’s priority mail, but you need to wait at least 2 
weeks before filing a lost package claim”. They do not believe in manually 
trying to find a package that has disappeared, at work we have more than 
once had UPS do that if it gets put on the wrong truck. From here on out I’ll 
just specify UPS. Anyone else have bad luck with the postal service? I think 
the only time I’ve ever had a problem with UPS was I ordered a part 2nd day 
and it did not show up till 8 at night because it was not being delivered to 
a business address.
