The cards initially arrived in Raleigh right on time. Great, no problem, right? Wrong. So, despite the cards sitting in the Raleigh distribution center, which is located in the final destination city, the USPS, for some reason, then ships them to the Greensboro, NC distribution center which is over an hour and 15 minutes away.

The cards then sit in Greensboro a few days before the USPS ships them back to Raleigh and delivers them. Why?
Only a hour and 15 minutes away is pretty close for USPS lately. Here are a few recent ones for me.

I live in South Dakota.

Sent frog skins to a fellow member in California it went by way of Hawaii.

Sent cards to a member in New Jersey by way of Alabama.

Bat sent from Kentucky to me. Takes a month with only real updates being received by PO in Kentucky and arriving here.
