Just seems strange and ineffecient regardless of who put it out there. But as long as it gets here i really dont mind. Just curious why theyd send to the other side of the country.
Definitely inefficient. That's the postal service for ya. UPS, Fed Ex, Purolator, USPS, CP.... they all suck equally hahaha.
Yea i feel you there. My last order got snagged in chicago. Luckly i had gaurenteed shipping and got a free re order.
Yea i hope so. Hopefully it doesnt go through any customs. My luck though theyll ship it from san fran to chicago. I sure hope not though
If they suck so bad, which ones can you do without? Since you're an expert at moving mail, what can you do better? Are you willing to take a letter across country for me for .$50? Or, are you just talking out your ass?
Exactly. A lot of packages are being rerouted because of this.
Lol any mail coming in the states go thru customs. Whether they look inside is a different story.
Sorry but i have to agree thats pretty dumb especially if the want to keep up margins, why would you send it to the opposite side of the U.S.?
as far as i am aware of, there's only 4 or so sorting centers for international mail, ny, chi-town, l.a. and maybe san fran being the last..
Yeah he's trolling. I'm not even going to respond to him. Fuck ups are bound to happen when you are moving millions of packages. Unfortunately they happen very frequently haha. I used to be a UPS delivery driver. All I can say is don't hate the driver. 99% of the time it's not their fault it's just the whole delivery system. Sometimes those packages get lost into the void...... or in your case flown across the country and back before it gets to you.
Not trolling. Was a serious question. You said they suck, I want to know why and what you can do better. The reason some packages take odd routes and go across country and then back to you, is because the way the system is set up. It is not setup to be efficient with a single package, but bulk packages that are sorted at distribution hubs and then sent out. Therefore, your package can go from customs, right past you to a hub probably some where in the Midwest to be sorted then sent to you. So while something might seem stupid to us, our expertise is not in moving packages around the world.
Same thing here I'm east coast and it went west coast, I emailed them to see if the gave me the wrong tracking #. haven't heard back
Well hell, let me know if they email you, and what they have to say. Im sure there's a logical explanation.
