A few weeks ago, I had something that showed In Transit Arriving Late for over 3 weeks. Then one day, it magically arrived at a distribution center near me and was delivered a few days later. If you wait, it will probably show up eventually.

I hate to rain on your parade, but...
I have been a huge fan of the USPS...until this past year. As examples, they delivered Christmas cards (which we sent on December 10) of ours to the Atlanta area on February 5 and to the Chicago area on March 10. They "lost" a request for death certificates I sent to the Cook County Vital Records Office (for genealogical purposes) on January 14. On March 14 I sent a duplicate request via Registered Mail so I could track its travels beginning-to-end. It made it to the destination Post Office and completely fell off the radar even though the Cook County Vital Records Office address is a Post Office box! I sent all kinds of nastygrams (the response to one of which was that the issued was "resolved," which in USPS-speak means "we can't find what you sent.") Finally, last week the check I sent with the first request was deposited and three days later I had my documents. I have no idea where the second set of requests is nor do I care. I stopped payment on the second check. Bottom line is - right now service by the USPS is generally shite!

I will be sending a package to California from Florida next week. Not sure what will happen. My original post package was mailed from Florida to Mo, still not resolved not delivered. 13 days.

I overnighted a card on Friday at 3:19 pm, just before the deadline, guaranteed noon delivery to NY on Saturday, arrived at 12:44. I also had an overnight that took well over a week last month. So at this point hit or miss.

The average to slightly below average "norm" of service that the USPS has had for at least the previous decade dipped to new lows last year, and that is what you are continuing to see now in 2021. All of these stories are very familiar. I've paid a lot extra for Priority insured packages that took longer to get where they were going than First Class. Over the 2020 holidays, multiple eBay purchases just fell off the radar for days or weeks at a time, before eventually all magically showing up. The local postal workers in NC (Triad region) will tell you they are sorely understaffed, and cannot keep new hires. I think in terms of personnel, they have union problems. I'm not sure how to put a point on it, but I've always felt that no postal worker, even the nice ones, truly gave a damn about anything because in their situation they don't have to. Their continued employment is not based at all on customer satisfaction.
Covid of course took even more wind out of their sails; the regional facility 30 miles down the road here in Greensboro I think even shut down for a few days in December. It's not a good situation, but if you want to mail run of the mill cards without spending a fortune, it's your only choice as it's always been. I know it's a painful answer right now, but the old "most things do get there eventually" is basically true, from what I can tell. If I have to mail a card over $2-300, I will usually just suck it up and pay FedEx a lot more to get it there quicker with (much) better tracking. I don't sell a ton anymore, and peace of mind is more valuable to me than it used to be.

USPS problem info in above posts
Opened a case by email last week. Received an email today from Po. Resolved your case ha !!! Ha !!! Your package is either lost or stolen. So, now have to try to get insurance case approved. Mailed 2 packages last week 1st class no insurance. California 2 days, Ill. 5 days.. seems priority mail is one of the problems. Not happy. Joe
