Out here in the Boonies of Boone County I prefer Fed Ex, then UPS and then USPS. FedEx and UPS have much better tracking systems and seem to deliver faster. They all deliver timely and with a smile. All in all it is amazing how fast a package can be brought to one's door. One of the reasons I hit the Submit Order button so often.

Ordering a Colorado, Bernie?

You can't beat Priority on the long haul. Mail that same package to California and see which one makes it first. Priority will hands down everytime. It sounds like your package made it within the time restraints set forth by Priority. You mailed it Friday, it would have then been officailly recognized by the post office on Saturday- Day 1 Sunday doesn't count no mail then. Monday was day 2 and Tuesday was day 3. Priority gaurantees 2-3 day delivery. No scam there, and I'm not a postal employee and I was not paid for this in any way. Had you mailed it first class you wouldn't have left them the option to wait three days to deliver it.

One piece of advice for the USPS is never pay extra for
Priority Mail over
First Class. Nothing but a scam. Had a Priority Mail
envelope sent from St.
Louis to my house in Union on a Friday once. Approximately
50 miles. Even
sent first class, it should have arrived on Saturday, but I
didn't receive
it until Tuesday. Sometime for fun, ask a postal worker how
Priority mail is
handled differently than first class. It isn't.
That's the scam.
