What is with the US Mail?

[smrgol]

In the past couple of months I've had packages take several weeks to get to me instead of the normal 10 days or so. I've had two shipments lost in the mail and it does not look promising for the GPS case that Camestone mailed back to me either.

Another grumble - I ordered a PC game from Amazon who passed the order on to a mail order company.
The order was recievced as the X-Box version, so that's what they shipped. I have a return number but, I HAVE TO PAY THE POSTAGE FOR THEIR MISTAKE!
(If anyone is looking for an X-Box version of TOCA Race Driver 2 get in touch asap - $33 shipped!)

This is kind of weird

Much good this does you now, but if you can put a tracking mechanism on a package and take it to the post office, that not only shows proof of mailing and provides receipt, it gives them some incentive to get the package from point A to point B. Return receipt for merchandise is a good one for parcel post packages.

Pardon my alliteration. =^^=

I know you can add tracking to a package, but most firms that you order from do not do this.
