U.S.P.S Mail. Delays or Problems - Long wait over

Hi ,

I had bought a presonus firebox few weeks back and I was waiting for it eagerly for weeks. during this agony of a wait period , as like most others, I began to doubt the shipping service since the buyer guaranteed shipping would take 11 days.

I googled and found lots of hate forums and problems with the U.S.P.S priority mail.

Well , the good news is I am very happy that I have received the package today. I just wanted to share my experience to ease out other people who are worried about their packages getting delayed.

Here is the story,

Feb 1 , 2010 -- Ordered the item . Paid by paypal

Feb 2, 2010 -- Mail from a great seller saying item has been shipped . I got the tracking number

Feb 6 ,2010 --- Saw on the U.S.P.S website

International Dispatch, February 04, 2010, 9:30 pm, ISC MIAMI FL (USPS)
Bullet Arrival
Bullet Electronic Shipping Info Received, February 02, 2010

Feb 14 ,2010 -- Still no Package. I got worried and started reading forums. No consolation. There are lots out there waiting.


Feb 15,2010 -- Understood that the U.S.P.S mail would come from local post office so went to indiapost.gov.in and started to use the tracking number on various mail services since I dint know what service.

I found that IPS tracking gives better detail. It said It had reached Delhi foreign customs office by 8th Feb


I was happier .

Then I started using packagemapping.com which gives the best details of tracking along with a google map.



All in all, I got the package after so long..!!! I havent checked on the contents yet !!!!

will do and post later.

Cheers!!!

Neither USPS is slow not India Post is bad. Both the postal services are excellent.

Customs Clearance takes a lot of time.
