Shipping woes: this is so mixed up, I just have to laugh...

Don’t get me wrong – I really like the USPS. And I know that there’s a health crisis going on, and people are overworked, and... But my city’s USPS has a habit of sending my mail “away” for a little seasoning or sightseeing.

I’ve got TWO deliveries this month to share. The first one (which I still haven’t received) was sent on June 18, and made it to Albany, NY (my place of residence - I show it in RED) on June 23. BUT, then it was sent out again, and now is moving around Philadelphia (I've included the EBAY tracking details – start at the *START HERE AND GO UP* below and work your way up to see the path – sorry it took so much space):

AND BETTER YET, here’s one that made it THREE TIMES TO ALBANY, only to be sent away for a little more traveling and waiting time. I noticed it because the FIRST time it arrived in Albany, EBAY marked it as delivered (yeah, delivered somewhere...). Again, start below at *MORE CRAZINESS - Start here and GO UP* – this one might set the record:

My address hasn't changed in 15 years (it's a very simple sounding street with a three-digit house number). Never had this happen (that I know of) before this. Neither package has been a bass, so no sweating bullets. I don’t think it’s even worth calling about (what, are they going to mail it to me any faster?). Just thought I’d share another thread about shipping woes, and hope you don't live in Albany, NY and are awaiting a bass shipment.

 

I just figured I must have ticked off someone in the post office, and my name/address is on some "screw this guy" list.
