What. Did you post an answer to a completely different question in the wrong thread?

Figured I would bump this old thread. I have 2 with the dreaded "in transit, arriving late" updates.

One is a group of 10 Randy Johnson Marlboro error cards. I sent these in a small flat rate box. A couple days later the same Net54 member buys a few more cards. I sent them in a bubble mailer and those arrived on time.

Then the one that is coming to me. I had Louisville Slugger make me a awesome custom bat. It was sent out 14 days ago.

Venting over, have a great evening everyone.

Seeing this as well, for sure. Significant delays as well as unusual lack of updates during tracking recently. 3 of my 5 USPS First Class packages in the last 7 days were delayed.

Had to start a case on one package that shipped 11/03 from CA, no updates for 11 days. I opened the case and it then popped up in Detroit before stalling again. Started a second case on the same package after no movement for 4 further days, which then got it to Columbus, OH. Delivered today.

FWIW, one CSR said USPS has reduced access to transport recently. Also wonder if they're down staff from positive tests/contact quarantines as well.

Weird stuff. Very much not business as usual.

I have yet to not have cards delivered or have cards arrive. I often overpay to have packages arrive safely and secure. Always pay to insure whatever I'm sending just to be sure. So thankful for all of the men and women who allow us to makes trades and sales through good times and bad.

I've seen a slowdown the last two weeks for sure, although oddly only on some items. About half of the things I've ordered this month has arrived very quickly...within 3-4 days of order. The other half have been bouncing around, disappearing from tracking, etc. for 7-10 days and still aren't here yet.

wanted to bump this up and just curious if anyone else has the same shipping issue as above?
I have been waiting on 3 cards without any update for over 2 weeks now.

Yeah it's definitely bogging down again in NC. I've had several things now 3-4 days overdue because they just sit at the hub 30 miles down the road for a long time before anyone gets to them. Frustrating, but as long as the cards eventually show up I'm not truly complaining.
