Frank,that parcel was economy Parcel Post by the USPS.I sent it out may 10 and it took 1 week to you, in Canada. That is great. This service is no longer avalable to Canada. Priority mail may shave a day off that time for lots more. I use the USPS for 90 percent+ of my shipping. I use UPS for BIG heavy stuff. I give the UPS lady a Vanagon stamp each time I go in the UPS store, and I give the Post Office clerk a complimentry UPS pen each time I go into the post office to ship. I have to smooth things over with each side, every time.They all know I have been using the "other" service. |
