Sorry to hear - same here with my claim and the USPS. My wife and I literally have spent at least 30 hours on the phone with no less than 20 people in this debacle. It's sad, and I wrote one nice little letter today to the USPS Postal Inspector. It makes me ill, and frankly, I see why the USPS is going under. They're incompetent to say the least. I wish I had recorded all the conversations we've had. It's pathetic. So no, I DO NOT WANT the US GOV'T involved in my healthcare! Sorry Mr. P - didn't meant o jump on your post. But I feel ya...
That sucks, I've always had good experiences with USPS. For ordering from the States they're cheap and reliable. Less so with UPS, which is also more expensive in my experience (crazy customs brokerage fees you don't pay if you go through USPS). A lot cheaper than FedEx.
At least you guys don't have Canpar, I've had so many bad experiences with these clowns that I have declined ordering something if they use this private carrier. They like to drive by without ringing your buzzer, stick an attempted deliver tag, and then have you drive to their warehouse at the other end of town (they only do one "delivery" attempt). Once you get there you will meet a miserable clerk who will make you wait 30-40 mins and then return to tell you that they shipped it back to sender, only one day after "attempted delivery," and after another clerk has told you that it is sitting in their warehouse waiting for you. Worst customer service. Off topic, I know, but a warning to anyone in Canada thinking of using this shipping company.
