I made a purchase on the BST. Shipped quickly expected in a few days. It almost made it here then went east. All I have to say is the drugs must be really really good. ( progress reads bottom to top)

(Im in Snata cruz. 1/2 hr from San Jose)

I own several yoyos that have visited more cities than I have. Thanks USPS!

I had a package take a month to go from Boston to New York which which is a three hour drive

Uses has literally been a joke lately The shipping with them has been garbage. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve had. Packages end up in syracuse, drive an hour and a half the wrong direction to rochester, turn around, go back to syracuse, never get scanned and end up at my doorstep.

Or shipping delays like crazy Or shipping delays like crazy? I shipped a couple of yoyos that got delayed for 1-2 weeks.

Or I get the shipping where it’s in. Let’s say north carolina, and it literally never gets scanned until it gets here. So I never know where it is

That’s not all that unusual. Reading the tracking can be quite entertaining, even though it’s frustrating waiting for your package.

I sent a package to a location 5 miles from my house, albeit in a different zip code. It went to 4 different states before it turned around and was delivered 5 days later. In another instance, a friend sent me a package from a city 200 miles away (within the state) it was initially sent to a postal location 50 miles from my house, then to a location 40 miles from the original location and a couple of intermediate stops on it’s way to my house a week later. It’s about a 3.5 hour drive.

Maybe the USPS driver was too afraid of Hwy 17 from SJ to SC…in all seriousness, this sucks. I had a game go “on tour” back in 2020 and it was gone for well over a month, ended up getting a refund after waiting an additional week. Ended up just buying the game in person and of course the month later the game arrives.

Had a yoyo (SuperYo Renegade) not even have any tracking updates earlier this year when it shipped from Virginia. Its arrival to its main hub was all I got. It sat (and sat) at the post office, both myself and Ebay seller thought it was done and they were ready to issue me a refund. I told them to let’s give it a couple more days before we pull the trigger. They were ready to just take the loss if it did show up though I would have found a way to still pay for it. Suddenly I wake up next day to see it landed in the Bay Area and was slated to be out for delivery.

I have had several yoyos take from several weeks to maybe 2 months to arrive. I live west of Portland, OR, and the packages always make it to Portland. Usually they go to my local office and are delivered, but sometimes they are off on an adventure! I have had packages bounce back and forth between the east and west coast multiple times and packages get sent from Portland back to Salt Lake City and sit there for weeks. I recently had a package from Arizona make it to San Francisco, where it spent a number of days, only to be sent to Oklahoma (I think it was Oklahoma, someplace way off the route, anyway), and then on a tour of several more cities before finally making it’s way to Portland.

Yeah, wow the united states postal service has gone wacky for sure I feel like your package is left on the hands of an ever different slash quirky crew of handlers and you just gotta HOPE that they actually pay attention or care enough to not either crunch your item or lose it!:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::face_with_crossed_out_eyes::face_with_crossed_out_eyes::face_with_crossed_out_eyes::face_with_crossed_out_eyes::kissing_face:

Just happened to me :man_facepalming:
A seller in South Cal shipped a yoyo to me in North Cal. It arrived after 1 day at a hub 15 minutes away from my home. The next day, they load it into a plane and it went to Washington DC :exploding_head:

Seems to be the way of the world lately….. no one seems to care for others any longer? Especially when there mail is late or not arrived yet!? The thought of using some patience and some common sense just doesn’t seem to matter…. Just some patience & understanding won’t fix everything but it’s a start!

I regularly defend USPS. I think they do a fantastic job most days. Parcel services are a modern marvel as far as I am concerned. But things are wild recently. This package is on a nutty journey. Since it hit the states it can’t get enough of Nashville, and Syracuse. It’s been to both twice, among all the other stops. I fear it may head back across the pond now.
