Thanks, UPS

Bummer. If a package arrived one day late from USPS I’d consider it early. I learned my lesson not to order stuff during/after the holidays+covid+whatever and expect it to arrive on time and alive. One package of mine shipped from a city just 2 hrs away and arrived 12 days later, yeah, all very dead. Not worth the risk or hassle IMO. But hey, your corals might still pull through and if not I hope you can get your money back...

Three shipments from PEA arrived overnight as scheduled through UPS. I have all UPS stopped locally at the hub and I drive to pick them up. This was in mid December.

Sucks!!

Instead of Black Friday and Holiday sales (for live goods) at their normal times... we should just collectively as a hobby.. should move them all to June

Better weather and won't be competing with the massive amount of shipping around holidays.

This would be awesome! And I’d bet we would all spend more money just because. I mean they wouldn’t be competing for our Christmas money

It’s been three weeks and my shrimp from algae barn finally showed up... my orphek lights are still “ in transit “. I loathe USPS and wish we as tax payers could abolish the US mail. It’s a joke and makes our country look like a joke since old people seem to take so much pride in it. USPS is the gold standard for lazy useless government employees doing the bare minimum to get by. Fire all these useless people and give the business to UPS...

I love the lady who delivers my mail from usps. I live in a condo so many mail boxes many faces. But she knows me and she has more than once put something in my box that didn’t have my unit number on it. You can’t blanket statement all USPS workers.
