Anyone else having weird shipping issues through USPS?

[ferrebee88]

I've had 3 packages recently be shipped from Amain Hobbies in California with the destination of Gig Harbor, Washington. All several days late because they are arriving at the Seattle Distribution Center and then being rerouted to freakin Indiana and then back to Washington! What sense does this make

I actually had this same problem a couple weeks ago shipping from Amain Chico, CA to WA too. Package went to Spokane distribution, then instead coming to me, it went to Illinois. Arrived 4-5 days later than expected as it rerouted through Colorado, back to Spokane then to me.

You're not the only one.

I started requesting that packages not be sent through FedEx... anytime theyvrouted through Eugene, Oregon they would get delayed for over a week. USPS was consistent most of the time.

We haven't had any issues with FedEx here on the eastern side of the state. USPS though...seems I'm playing delivery roulette again.

My next amain order is coming from NC. I'm waiting on anticipation on what may happen when it reaches Spokane

I have packages coming from around the world. EU, Asia and western US right now. Sometimes shipping is ultra fast, sometimes not so much.
Hopefully the planets align!

Labels, tape, flaps come undone. Two packages on conveyor belt got diverted. Earthquake, hijackers, storm, derailment, pedestrian crossing.... it happens. Call, or contact them with questions/concerns.

At least the packages have been arriving intact. When I was in Afghanistan I always wondered why our packages would arrive all beat up. One day I was by the air strip when the mail plane landed. All the mail was on pallets and they would just push the pallets right off rear end of the plane. I watched them land upside down and they would just roll them

Sometimes. It was bad for a while her w/ USPS. Now it's pretty good! I have seen packages bounce back n forth but show up. The ESC you sent me from PNW to Georgia was super fast! You must know someone! It took like 4 days.

I've found in New England that FedEx is the absolute lowest in quality. Multiple items have gotten to the local terminal only to be lost forever. USPS can take a while. Maybe weather related? Bonus here is the USPS carrier for my area is into RC cars so he cares about my packages.

Call amain and let them know you are having issues. My buddy had a different shipping problem with something from them...but now he also has a $20 gift card to go with those issues

Oh hell no, I love USPS, I never have issues with them.

It gives me a 7 or 8 day window and my packages chill at a hub for several days. I guess they wait so the time is correct?

In my area, USPS has been the quickest and most reliable. Seems like they are having a hiccup, so Ibwas curious if anyone else was having the same issue. Not in a rush to get my packages. Its just weird when the tracking says "this day", and all of a sudden my package shows up in Indiana.

I often get packages delivered late....then 5 to 14 days later I get notified the same item is out for delivery again...the duplicates never arrive.

my last Amian order did the same thing! it went up to Seattle instead to down to me. made even more strange considering I'm in So Cal. so it went from Nor Cal to Seattle. then Seattle to So Cal. and here's the kicker. its further from Amain to Seattle than it is from Amain to me.

USPS always had those issues.
Thats why It stands for
Unique Postal Service

Be sure and call a main to let them know what’s going on , they have been great with follow up with my issues

This one is not Amain, but still USPS shipping. I'm wired about this jaunt my package took to Royal City. That is not a typical stop after Spokane for me.
Guess we'll see where it goes from there
