So, I got an email saying a show of mine was shipped.....but through US Mail! Anyone else have this happen? I thought it was odd:confused:
 
I'm a US Male.Some people might consider me odd.
 
Kitchen Guy, I'd have to agree. (Heee heee)

Lacy, the only thing I've ever had ship USPS is a small replacement part. I figured it was so small that the shipping cost was cheaper. Hmmm, I wonder if it fell between the end of UPS and the beginning of FedEx. You've got me curious.
 
I got a supply order yesterday...and it came UPS!!
 
I was told by HO that anything under a certain weight was shipped USPS. I really didn't like that because it was a missing item from a show and it took a week to get vs the 2-3 days to get it if they had shipped it UPS (now FEDEX). They said that was just their policy. I think since they didn't get it right in the first place they should have shipped it the quickest way possible so the guest could get their item as quickly as possible.
 
I can't imagine what THOSE boxes will look like! YIKES!!!

KG, you're too funny!
Actually I got to thinking....I accidentally put in her PO box instead of street address, so I'm guessing that's why. I would have figured they'd have called to get the street address though....hmmmm!
 
That is so weird!! They always sent my boxes UPS even with the PO Box on there, and UPS just calls the morning of delivery for an address. Did you forget a phone # maybe?

No, I had the phone number....and I know there was at least one stone ordered, so I wouldn't think it would be because of small weight. Weird!
 
That is so weird that they wouldn't at least call you or the hostess and get a new address.

All APO mail goes USPS. It has to do with the military regulations.
 
Do you all ship alphabet soup via USPS to APO?
