Too bad you can't get frequent flyer miles from your package shipping :helpsmilie:

Was it supposed to go to Canada? It looks like it got there several times!

I got a package from MO a couple of Christmases ago that must have gotten snagged by Santa's sleigh. It went to Puerto Rico first!

I had that exact same thing happen to me. It made absolutely no sense to me for a package from NY to go to PR first, then Dallas, then Nashville, then back to NY, then finally to me in CT. WTF?

I had a package shipped 2Day Priority Mail last October from AZ to GA. Took eight days to get here! I had paid extra to make sure it got here in time before leaving on a trip.

I recently started working for the government and now I actually understand the logic they use, although I can't explain it. It's sort of like the relationship of the speed of light to the speed of dark!

Puerto Rico might be the spot. I had a package from TricLed go all the way to Peurto Rico then back to FL

I've got these too! Paid extra for Priority 2-DAY Mail so the customer would be SURE to get it on time. East Tenneessee to PITTSBURGH, PA. I can drive it in just over 6 hours. But it took 3 days to get to Georgia! (Anyone in the USPS ever take Geography?). Why would you send a package that needs to go due north, south to Georgia? Only your USPS worker knows!

6 days to get a 2 day package delivered. AMAZING!

I think that I'd be at the Post Office with a print-out of the package's journey; demanding a whole bunch of money back! :gaah:

The very reason I never ship anything without tracking at USPS any more. I've had a few similar experiences as well as some very weird ones.

Quit your crying, it's a very well run Government operation, they just need more tax payers dollars. :thumbup:

You're right! Maybe we can merge 0bamaCare and the USPS! We could call it 'Who Cares?'

That's one of those "forever" stamps; right?
WAITING forever! :banghead:

They are keeping in place with the "snail mail" concept. The more facilitys each letter visits keeps each place open. Per the numbers http://www.spyderlovers.com/forums/attachment.php?attachmentid=124197&stc=1 that why (few that care) they "GO POSTAL"nojoke. :roflblack::roflblack::roflblack:

So!~ That's what the 'Forever' part means. Now it all makes much more sense.

It appears that the Canadian post left out the ugly portions of this saga. I guess that is the neighborly thing to do. I'm sure the USPS appreciates it very much!

True to form!!
Had a similar situation with something I ordered recently. The package ping-ponged between Hartford CT and Springfield MA, like 3 times before it got to me. Yours takes the cake though!

I have had the same issue with FedEx. The package gets 20 miles from my home, then it goes 100 miles away and will take 2-3 days to get it then.
