Can you imagine how the **** would hit the fan? It is funny how we keep paying the grading companies for this poor service, but we would never accept it from the Post Office.

My feeling is that the Post Office is not equipped to handle the vast amount of Amazon packages that are being delivered every day, and the Postal Service is losing a hell of a lot of money because of Amazon. They will never admit it, but for those of us who are/were on the front lines of delivering these packages, we know the truth.

Odd you should mention that...


Today I saw a post on FB from a vendor in a different hobby who is in the UK. It seems there's a prolonged mail strike in Canada, and they were asked to not send any packages there until further notice as the backlog has gotten way out of hand.
