I hate USPS tracking...

[Merlyn3D]

It doesn't track at all. I'm waiting for a package that's supposed to be here tomorrow via priority mail, and it was shipped out yesterday morning. The tracking number STILL doesn't show. Someone should sue them for false advertising on their website for claiming you can actually track a package! (yeah I know, it would never happen)

there is no such thing as usps tracking...
it is Delivery confirmation

 

[minendo]

It is confirmation not tracking.

Maybe because it's delivery confirmation?

 

[Merlyn3D]

Their website seems to call it tracking. Otherwise they should say "click here to see if your package has been delivered" I mean, if they don't offer tracking at all, then why the heck can you track a package on their site?

They do have tracking, but it's very primitive. I used it last week to see where the holdup was on a package.

if you need real tracking, you need to use a real shipping company, not the government run USPS.

Yeah, but priority mail is a good deal because it's guaranteed 2-3 days for the price of fedex or UPS ground, which isn't guaranteed by a particular time.

The service is, however, if you go to the website, it says Track & Confirm.

it's actually not guaranteed 2-3 days...it's average transit time 2-3 days, but they never guarantee it. It could take up to 30 days if it gets screwed up.
