I'm from South Korea and i'm expecting a package from Florida USA, but when I track it on their website(USPS.Com) I found out that it was delivered in Thailand! My Goodness...How can i get my package? any suggestion will be highly appreciated..Thank You.

This was retarded. Of course the post office is a lot cheaper. But look at how many billions of U.S TAX DOLLARS it has been given to hold its neck above water. If this was a private enterprise it would have failed A LONG, LONG time ago. And for a person who's worked for a 3...USPS and management don't know what the hell they are doing
The USPS lost $2.2 billion this quarter. The $15 billion line of credit the feds have offered will be used up by the end of the year. USPS expects $42 billion of losses over the next 4 years! Even worse there's a bill by Maine senator's to toss $50 to $75 billion life raft to the USPS. I think i know what I am talking about.
@DEEPGNOSTIC Actually, the Post Office's funding comes 100% from postage sales, not from any amount of taxation. Try doing actual research rather than going off whatever Fox Opinion or AM talk radio is yammering simply to get attention.
@blackjac5000 Yeah man. The post office is vilified. But in no way do they operate entirely off of sales. They have to be subsidized because they have to compete with the private sector but are legally not allowed to compete. It's a stupid situation.
WOW!!! If their funding comes from 100% of postage sales they would have declared bankruptcy decades ago. The Post Office operates at a loss. Think about sending a 40 cent letter from the US to Hawaii...that kind of prcing won't survive in the private sector. If it did you would see UPS or FedEx adopt this. One could start by stopping the Congress-mandated pre-funding of retirement, a burden no other government has to fulfill.
People, People: There are millions of letters/packages in the mail system every day. Jjust by UPS alone is 3.3 million. Even with a half of one percent mishandle rate, that means approximatly 2,000 packages will be damaged/mis-routed/ or even mis-delivered. There is no way to be perfect. Everyone will have their preferences on who they like and who they don't like. It's a matter of preference. There is no one perfect company.
My shipping company can beat parcel post prices with FedEx or UPS to most destinations in the United States. Why pay more for a lower quality US Mail service without tracking or free insurance when you could send your shipment with FedEx or UPS with tracking, guaranteed delivery, and $100 of insurance for less?

They mentioned absolutely nothing about if the postal service actually got the parcel there in time...Nothing going through the postal service has a guarenteed arrival date. I don't know too much about FedEx, but anything going through UPS has a guarenteed arrival date and it is more expensive but you really do get what you pay for. Superior tracking, automatic insurance of 100 dollars and if your package doesn't arrive on time or at all you can get a refund. Funny how they left that out.
I ordered something and USPS sent my package to the wrong country (I'm in the continental US, how do you screw that up) , and soon got to me over one month late. USPS is the worst shipper ever, never use it.
USPS is terrible. They are known for lying on a regular basis. The one thats most familiar is when they say they left a notice when they didn't. Whats the point of paying them to ship a package if you have to go get it? And its pretty common for people the watch the mail get delivered only to find out that the postman didn't feel like giving them their package but was fine giving them their regular mail. And you should never buy anything on Ebay with USPS shipping. Just look up Ebay USPS scam.
The customer service rep called me to tell me that they could not find my address at 815 am, I answered the phone and talked with her, not a message. I went out front and foolishly waited for an hour for delivery then called her back. She said that he is not coming back and the package would be delivered 4 days later d/t holiday weekend. I asked when I could pick up the package and she said 730pm when the driver is back. Package was not even on the truck, I could have picked it up this morn

And if you use FedEx, good luck on getting that package!!!!! I've used all three of these and have only used FedEx twice and had major problems both times. On my way to pick up my package at FedEx after the driver "couldn't find my address" although they had no problem last week when they just ran to the door put a sticker on it and ran back to the truck and left. I'm VERY easy to find in town and any GPS CLEARLY shows my address. Customer service and manager unconcerned....
Bogus report Fed and UPS ship big items computers etc. Things USPS will not do and cost a hell fo a lot more if they did do it. UPS is faster more reliable and doesn't break as much shit also Fed ex never breaks anything hardly and faster than both put together. Consumer reports is bullshit working inappliances for awhile now they are beyond stupid and jsut flat out make shit up
@kjones0866 complete lie the postal service subsized overnight means 2 weeks from now and also a bs bogus report that flate fee is not a flat fee......fact is they charge more lesser also and fed ex and ups are mig items USPS has a limit books etc. anything over is null and void Fed Ex MEANS OVERNIGHT I know for a fact USPS overnight most of the TIME IS NEVER OFFERED. The postal service remains a subsized failure that doesnt make a profit and is 99% a lost on ever dollar put into beside pensions
Thats why usps is not making money and costing taxpayers billions just like most of the other businesses they do. They are paying there workers much more than the others, there is no way they will ever make money. They are under cutting ups and fed ex. Something I don't think the governments should do. They should run it as a real business and if its not making the money get rid of it or change it.
From a business point of view we use FedEx. Using the postal service (USPS) has many hurdles. Of course this year they have created their flat rate boxes, but if you are using any other packaging or need express or overnight we have to send an employee to the post office as the carriers are only allowed to pick up "flat rate boxes" and mail under 13 ounces. Who has time to go to the Post Office and stand in line? The post office has to mimic UPS/FEDEX for real success.
Hey UPS, your commercials suck and your "Pay 'em for nothing" union sucks even more. FEDEX is the only company I will ever use. I have worked for you lame fucks and the way you toss packages around is the result of your unions and why they should be abolished off the face of the Earth. FUCK YOU UPS YOU SUCK!
I dont understand everyone is saying USPS is fast but i have waited 4 days and when i tracked the package i bought it was still at the office that it was handed to in the usa .
im not sure if its something to do with the trackers they have, but WOW that seems really slow if a object doesnt even move a inch in 4 days lol ahwell hope it gets to england, be great if it could arrive before i turn 100 years old though :)
Ups is slower. I'm still waiting on an overnight shipping order which was placed on 9\23\10 if this was Usps I would have recieved my package already. Not likely to use them again. :(
Do you guys really believe that the true cost of shipping with USPS is cheaper? Please the Government has laws in place to help USPS and its funded by the US taxpayer. Look up "Private Express Statutes". Did you know its a law that UPS or FedEx cannot ship any mail for under $3 dollars? Or that its illegal to use mailboxes for any mail thats not USPS? Or that USPS can only ship overnight packages using UPS or FedEx because they have 0 planes,who pays the difference to FedEx and UPS the TAXPAYER
USPS does not rely on taxpayer money and is completely self-sufficient. Sure they have a monopoly on first class mail but that is not what this video is about.
If you dont like USPS, then feel free to spend more money for UPS or Fedex. I personally use UPS or Fedex for more expensive, heavier items while USPS is great for smaller items. USPS is faster and cheaper but their tracking leaves something to be desired.
The funny thing is that USPS doesn't have their own planes. In our region with FedEx, USPS contracts us to ship their overnight stuff. Theres no way they could do that service alone.
i bought a package from alabama and i live in new york.. the package was sent friday morning today is sunday... you think i will have it by monday or tuesday?
The USPS lost a few of my mail and packages and refuse to acknowledge the incidents or pay anything for their mistake.. even if I have the tracking numbers!!
USPS is probably the cheapest but there are many cases when our packages and letters get lost in the process by "machines" (they claim that only machines touch our mail).
Also their 1-800-ASK-USPS sucks. Call that number and you're NEVER routed to a representative. Their usps website is seriously out of date (call local post offices
@birmingham1010 and they're all wrong numbers or no one ever picks up). If they do pick up, the employees are seriously rude. One employee said, "Slow down lady. What the hell do you want me to do? Everyone's outside. Seriously, what do you want me to do?"
I hope a few more shipping companies (other then UPS and FedEx) start and I will be using their services! The more competition, they will do their jobs better!
@birmingham1010 Don't know what the problem is at your post office, but I've had nothing but great results shipping by USPS. They're fast, easy and cheap. And I did call the 1-800-ASK-USPS number and a representative picked up. And what do you mean their website is out of date?
And unless you ship thru Express Mail, you don't have tracking numbers. You have delivery confirmation numbers. There's a difference.
@mw0305 Glad they have a representative picking up that phone line now. I had to call them many times back in March, many times again in May, June, & August & they put me on hold for 30 minutes+ and never transferred me to a representative. I finally complained several weeks ago (about the lack of help from that 1-800 number, post office phone numbers are all incorrect or out-of-service, rude people picking up the phone, etc). They emailed me back and told me that they'll get everything fixed.
@mw0305 And yeah, I meant delivery confirmation. I know they have tons of mail per day... I don't know what else they could do to deliver our packages with a guarantee without us having to pay $30 to several hundred dollars. I'm not the only one who had trouble with USPS. Google it and you'll find hundreds of others whose packages got lost, letters were cut open and missing, checks were missing, etc.
@mw0305 What I mean about their website is "out of date" is that I had to send mail to people in Michigan and California and Missouri, etc. and my packages go missing even though I had delivery confirmation numbers. I went to usps' website and looked up post office phone numbers in these locations but no one picked up the phone or the line was disconnected 90% of the time that I called. I called dozens of phone numbers just to finally talk to someone about the package only by then,
@birmingham1010 these post offices were closing and their computers were turned off or that these employees refused to help me (since it was 30 minutes until closing time).
The reason why many will pay more for UPS / FedEx is because USPS frequently loses packages. I will never send critical documents via USPS again. I've been hosed twice already.
i hate ups. i orded a xbox from microsoft and i ordered 2 day shipping. i was supposed to recieve on the 10th and now it is comming on the 13th! thats 5 day shipping. the company i bought from shipped it the day i bought on the 7th. and now this becomes six day shipping. this is bull.i payed extra money to recieve it early but it comes 4 days late. wow. im never choosing ups again!
I agree, UPS has went down the drain. although , so has the USPS. Large packages cost more than UPS or Fed Ex, and are slower to arrive, especially to FL. UPS has a bad record of damaging stuff, but nothing as bad as the USPS. I have had more oversized envelopes and magazines trashed and torn by the USPS than anyone combined.
MAN, USPS Express Mail is almost always the bestr option!! UPS is fuckin trash...they burned me one time to many. Fed E? i really dont know. But im DO know USPS has worked for me and i gotta recommend it for y'all
USPS is always friendly and great when delivering our packages. I can't tell you how many people are in dire need of quality used cardboard boxes. What to do?
I get the best deal from UPS. I'm allowed to send out personal packages from work. Corporate costs for a 10 lb box going from Ohio to Florida is only 8.25 if it is a residential address and 6.25 if is a company and only takes 3 to 4days. 4 to 5 if you send it to the west cost with the cost only going up like 70 cents tops
I just ordered a $900 value from USA to Canada using UPS and I was charge $180 tax fee. USPS will never charge me this much. So for you people who wanted to ship internationally use USPS to avoid high tax fee.
Priority is no good because they do not scan the mail when they take possession of it. Therefore, if it gets lost or damaged the insurance is useless.
Express mail is guaranteed either next day or second day by noon or 3 pm and includes signature and tracking plus 100.00 insurance. This service is also guaranteed to certain foreign countries. Flat rate envelope starts at 18.30 in the U.S.

It actually depends on what you are shipping. If you ship a package USPS you are pretty much screwed if it gets lost. They tend not to scan a package when it is dropped off, so if it goes missing they have no record of receiving it. If you can afford absorbing a few reships, because your cost of goods is low then Post Office is fine. If you are shipping anything expensive, then fedex or UPS is the way to go.
There are several companies which ship daily with the post office. For those pricey items may I suggest Priority mail with signature confirmation and COD service. When the carrier delivers your package we will get a signature, a scan showing delivery and collect the money for the entire transaction. In turn the funds will be mailed back to the seller in form of a money order or a personal check. The package has to be scanned inorder to get the signature. All priority supplies are provided free.
Yes, the business environment has changed for the USPS. But, you have to adapt. The Postal Service still has a monopoly on letters, that is huge. I think the USPS lost almost 5 billion in 2009, this is insane. Get with the times, do the following: Go to 401k or IRA'S-defined contribution plans, not defined benefits. Do like everyone else, get rid of the BS retiree health care obligation. Congress needs to let the Usps have more flexibilty in pricing, less losses on mail, price mail for profit.
@DrHogfan Time sensite is something that has to be there by 10:30 am such as fedex priority overnight ot First overnite by 8:30 am or standard overnight by 2:00p.m.
the USPS does not have "TIME COMMITMENTS" they gurantee next day delivery. not by a specific time just a specific day... don't believe me next time you goto the post office ask them...
Only a FOOL would ship a ground package with the Postal Service. They refuse to pay out insurance when a package is lost. And its lost more frequently with the postal service. FedEx is cheaper, better insurance, I can track the package and insurance is free for the first 100$ When I filed a claim for insurance at the post office they refused to take responsibility for the lost package because Delivery Confirmation isnt a tracking #. FU to the post office.
FedEx is sometimes 1 day faster than UPS for certain ground routes but will always cost a bit more. UPS charges slightly more for expedited shipping options. Their charges are different due to how each company handles their deliveries and how they are used. UPS is cheaper ground so they charge less but as they all use same vehicle increases cost for non-ground. FedEx has special vehicles so they can prioritize mileage for special packages.
I do not know why people still use UPS. It is a big rip-off and the arrival time is slow. Comparing USPS Priority Mail to UPS Ground, USPS is twice as cheaper and 2-3 times faster. Ground takes 7 days and Priority Mail takes 2-3 for arrival anywhere in the 48.
USPS Priority Mail is NOT guaranteed and you cannot track it. If you lose something with USPS Priority Mail, they will just tell you to bend over. Only use USPS Express Mail for documents under 70 lbs....it will be a flat rate ($16).
You can track your package with Priority Mail, you just need to add Delivery Conformation. If you lose something with the USPS Priority Mail, they won't tell you to bend over as long as you have insurance on it.
@whocaresnow2 I had someone on my route receive something that felt like 5 gold bricks by priority. The box was approx 1.5'x1'x4" & it was close to 50lbs. and it got there in TWO thats 2 days
@DrHogfan Is it true you guys steal packages that don't have tracking? I remember i had to wait one month for a small package from NY USA or Vancouver canada it was USPS first class international
@MR2Nutts your wrong! i have ordered/sent so many times priority mail 2-3 days from NYC to AZ,CALI,WA basically the whole west coast and it takes 5 days! always! not 3 days, maybe somtimes but it is rare, there are zones...second UPS take better care and updates your package and no extra charge for signature! and its comes to your door at your time
Yeah, the only problem is that if it's a normal-sized package USPS is even worse. USPS loses the most packages out of the three, and their shipping can be as slow as three to four weeks. Not only that, but their tracking system leaves a lot to be desired.
If it's for letters or small packages with a weight of less than 1 pound, you'll be better served by USPS Priority or First-Class. Their shipping cost on packages more than two pounds is higher than either UPS or FedEx.
@MR2Nutts Nope Their prices are the same btw FED overnight next day vs. postal service for package weight that 80z package is about 5 dollars cheaper as well as ups.
The thing is UPS and Fed Ex do overnight packages for heavier things and are far more reliable in 95% of the cases a bit to a lot more cheaper
Check the internet and you will see that letter carriers are the eyes and ears of your neighborhood. We save lives every day. When your mail starts to build up, we are the ones that check up on you to make sure everything is fine. When we don't see you for a couple of days, we knock on your door to check on you. We know your pattern even if you don't know you have one. The next time you see you Mailman freezing his nuts off or sweating his ass off give him/her a kind word. It means a helluva lot
Hey Mr. Mailman, FedEx and UPS can do a better job than your government run bureaucracy. A mailman that knows my routine, as you claim, is called a STALKER.
For 200 years the Postal Service, formerly known as U.S MAIL has always operated to break even. Not make a profit. It was a fully government agency that provided a public service. In the past 20 years or so, some college uneducated idiots decided that the postal service can run at a profit. That's when the greed and problems arose. When bonuses and promotions are involved people can turn into devils and that is exactly what upper management has turned in to. I challenge you to work 1 day and see
For all of you people talking smack about the USPS workers, know this. When 1 letter carrier calls out sick it affects the whole delivery day. You don't know this because we as carriers are very very good at our jobs and we make it look easy. The problem is the Management personnel who do absolutely nothing. If one of them don't come to work it does not affect anything at all. The USPS can run itself. Trim the fat from the top and you won't believe how much money we will be able to save.
postal service can't even keep track of a 1st class letter with delivery confirmation because their workers are useless overpaid pieces of shit. I don't trust them to mail a paper towel much less and overnight package. The USPS needs a massive layoff so those shit workers would have realized just how good they had it.
i placed an order on a pair of shoes yesterday night and i got 3 day shipping with ups. the shoes r located in eugene oregon, wud u say that my package would arrive by friday or earlier?
what do u guys think would be cheaper to ship... 2 semi-large boxes or just put the contents of the 2 boxes into one?? would appreciate any suggestions.
Well i work for ups and the price depends on box size and weight and depending on were you are shipping it. If you can fit the contents total into a box 12x12x12 or even 18x18x18 your good to go...it would averge out to be about the same as if you sent two seperate boxes.....stay away from boxes 24x24x24 they are more expensive especially if you are shipping them from say Mass to CA
To me Fedex is the way to go its the most reliable and most up todate tracking. i have used USPS and UPS too. USPS doesnt have that good of a tracking from when i tracked my package it only updated twice. once wen it was pick up and second wen it got to my post office. UPS on the other hand has horrible tracking and doesnt deliver on the date it said it would be. i had a package said delivered on the tracking buti never got the package until the following day or 2 to me Fedex is the best
The postal service has a gaurentee by noon delivery or your money is refunded. If you dont send an express out before the cutoff time it will be a two delivery (4pm, but it usally makes it there the next day anyways) USPS also uses signature image caputre and signature waiver, if the sender chooses. Ive noticed that ups charges 2x for services such as ceritifed mail. A service that the USPS carries out. Just a lil FYI ;)
@hustla520 Wrong USPS's guarantee neve ris that UPS AND Fed Ex actually refund you USPS is unrefundable and experience show its usually 2-3 days late and messed up some times. US Mail sucks. Absoultey sucks and is a drain completele subsidized unioned up a failure and unprofitable and fedex and ups have better service by far escpecially for business big loads and bigger wieghts and still sharge 5-25% less. No compettion the free market kicks the state sass again hence businesses using fedex
The USPS postal system is the most worthless branch of the Government-unreliable-undependable, and the workers will steal your valuable packages and auction the contents off at the Atlanta Ga. recovery center held every week. The sad thing is, you can't do a darn thing about it-I've lost over $650.00 and will never be able to recover a cent! GO UPS!
Then explain, in an appreciable fashion, how UPS has become the largest, most successful package delivery business in the world... ' Worst shippers ever '... not likely. Something must be working very well in that system.
Yes, you are right. In comparison to FedEx though, they don't stand near. I think (could be wrong) the reason they are huge is because companies use them more than people. I have sent packages to the same place using the same services, and the FedEx was always faster and cheaper.
You must be a complete total retard, or just ignorant in general. Im willing to bet you are just a retard. I do not know ONE single person who has ever had a problem with UPS. FedEx on the other hand, pretty much my entire family has had problems with, and at least 30-40 people I know have bitched about FedEx before. And SLOW?? Are you joking? I sent a package to IRAQ and it got there in less than a week, and it cost me $30!!!! Cant get any better than that. Go complain to your mommy.
I have never sent a package anywhere other than Europe and Canada that wasn't domestic (Yes i know those were domestic). FedEx was always faster and arrived in its supposed time, yet UPS will ALWAYS be in the latter of the times it gives you (5-10 days will always be 10 days) while FedEx is always middle to beginning. Im just stating my opinion to the matter, so don't attempt to "diss" me with your horrid unoriginal "burn" of crying to my mother.
Yeah, "horrid" must be your favorite word. Nice one. Maybe someday you will learn bigger words like "atrocious". You also claim UPS is "relatively unsafe". What the hell? You must be mistaken and sending through the USPS, not UPS. Let me guess, UPS will ALWAYS destroy your packages too, amiright? Its a freakin conspiracy, I tell you!!!
Why would I want to use atrocious when horrid is perfectly fine? Is there a reason to use a bigger word when it isn't necessary? I have had a package shipped to China instead of canada at times, which is relatively unsafe. Although it did get re-routed to canada, it took longer.
No, you're going to hell for calling someone out who REGULARLY ships to Iraq. Actually, I ship to Baghdad, Watheq Square at Hay Alwihda, so shut the fuck up. Asians AIN'T shit HAHA
the Post Office's "Express Mail" service isn't necessarily overnight/next day to all locations. USPS offers a 1-2 day commitment, they don't have an early morning delivery service, and the drop-off time is usually much earlier than FedEx and UPS. The post office may be cost effective for Ebayers and other noncritical shipments, but for businesses that have time-sensitive shipments; go FedEx or pick UPS.
The handlers that work at the Atlanta mail recovery Center PO box 44161 Atlanta Ga. 30378 for the USPS will cut the labels off your package-if it's valuable enough-retrieve the contents, and sell your valuables at the auction for lost articles-BELIEVE IT-happened 2 times to me.
Pricewise, USPS can't be beat for small packages because every address in the US gets daily mail delivery, whether you're a huge business or a loner in a shack. Note that their "large" flatrate box is only 12x12x6.
For large packages, stay away from USPS. You don't save any money and the retards at some post offices tend to misplace them. I shipped a guitar to a buyer in TX and it took 4 months to arrive... apparently it had been sitting in the stockroom since day 3.
i bought something on the internet with fedex overnight shipping and i still haven't gotten it since yesterday. it's been like exactly 24 hours and if i dont have it tomorrow morning i'm never using fedex again.
Obviously Stacy isn't a rocket scientist here. The reason (which he failed to mention) that people use Fedex and UPS is that they get a tracking number, proof of delivery and more than just "hope" that the package arrives on time. They also get to pick when it gets there instead of "when it's convenient for the Post Office". I guess if you don't care about whether or not your package actually arrives at the right place at the right time, you can ship USPS everytime.
UPS isn't, either. USPS just handles the most, which lets them offer better prices. But if you have a UPS or FedEx account, you can get some pretty good prices.
I use USPS when ever I can but they are difficult to use as a online shipper. I like UPS. They're Fast and my packages always seem to be well taken care of. FEDex seems to deliver late in the day but I guess that's just where I am on the route each time. I've had some packages that went through a shipping War thou. Contents arn't damaged but the box was obviously droped quite a bit and tumbled around.
Good video. I didn;t know that USPS had a flat fee for envelopes.
SORRY ABOUT THAT FIRST Comment. I was reading a Web Site and I accidently Copyed that by Mistake. THAT'S MY BAD. SORRY ABOUT THAT. It will NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN. NEVER!!!!!!!!
This has been flagged as spam show

@blackjac5000 Yeah man. The post office is vilified. But in no way do they operate entirely off of sales. They have to be subsidized because they have to compete with the private sector but are legally not allowed to compete. It's a stupid situation.

WOW!!! If their funding comes from 100% of postage sales they would have declared bankruptcy decades ago. The Post Office operates at a loss. Think about sending a 40 cent letter from the US to Hawaii...that kind of prcing won't survive in the private sector. If it did you would see UPS or FedEx adopt this. One could start by stopping the Congress-mandated pre-funding of retirement, a burden no other government has to fulfill.

People, People: There are millions of letters/packages in the mail system every day. Jjust by UPS alone is 3.3 million. Even with a half of one percent mishandle rate, that means approximatly 2,000 packages will be damaged/mis-routed/ or even mis-delivered. There is no way to be perfect. Everyone will have their preferences on who they like and who they don't like. It's a matter of preference. There is no one perfect company.

My shipping company can beat parcel post prices with FedEx or UPS to most destinations in the United States. Why pay more for a lower quality US Mail service without tracking or free insurance when you could send your shipment with FedEx or UPS with tracking, guaranteed delivery, and $100 of insurance for less?

They mentioned absolutely nothing about if the postal service actually got the parcel there in time...Nothing going through the postal service has a guarenteed arrival date. I don't know too much about FedEx, but anything going through UPS has a guarenteed arrival date and it is more expensive but you really do get what you pay for. Superior tracking, automatic insurance of 100 dollars and if your package doesn't arrive on time or at all you can get a refund. Funny how they left that out.

USPS is terrible. They are known for lying on a regular basis. The one thats most familiar is when they say they left a notice when they didn't. Whats the point of paying them to ship a package if you have to go get it? And its pretty common for people the watch the mail get delivered only to find out that the postman didn't feel like giving them their package but was fine giving them their regular mail. And you should never buy anything on Ebay with USPS shipping. Just look up Ebay USPS scam.

From a business point of view we use FedEx. Using the postal service (USPS) has many hurdles. Of course this year they have created their flat rate boxes, but if you are using any other packaging or need express or overnight we have to send an employee to the post office as the carriers are only allowed to pick up "flat rate boxes" and mail under 13 ounces. Who has time to go to the Post Office and stand in line? The post office has to mimic UPS/FEDEX for real success.

It actually depends on what you are shipping. If you ship a package USPS you are pretty much screwed if it gets lost. They tend not to scan a package when it is dropped off, so if it goes missing they have no record of receiving it. If you can afford absorbing a few reships, because your cost of goods is low then Post Office is fine. If you are shipping anything expensive, then fedex or UPS is the way to go.
Piddyx 1 year ago
There are several companies which ship daily with the post office. For those pricey items may I suggest Priority mail with signature confirmation and COD service. When the carrier delivers your package we will get a signature, a scan showing delivery and collect the money for the entire transaction. In turn the funds will be mailed back to the seller in form of a money order or a personal check. The package has to be scanned inorder to get the signature. All priority supplies are provided free.

Yes, the business environment has changed for the USPS. But, you have to adapt. The Postal Service still has a monopoly on letters, that is huge.

Do like everyone else, get rid of the BS retiree health care obligation. Congress needs to let the Usps have more flexibilty in pricing, less losses on mail, price mail for profit.

You can't really compare USPS to FedEx/UPS. It's more of a pros and cons battle with the pros and cons changing with every package you ship.
FedEx and UPS have guaranteed services and USPS does not.
However, UPS/FedEx charge extra for residential, saturday, address correction, rural delivery and more.
You can't compare list rates because if you ship any volume with either FedEx or UPS you have negotiated rates.
The point made in the video is clear: The USPS is a cheap option.

FedEx is sometimes 1 day faster than UPS for certain ground routes but will always cost a bit more. UPS charges slightly more for expedited shipping options. Their charges are different due to how each company handles their deliveries and how they are used. UPS is cheaper ground so they charge less but as they all use same vehicle increases cost for non-ground. FedEx has special vehicles so they can prioritize mileage for special packages.

Yeah, the only problem is that if it's a normal-sized package USPS is even worse. USPS loses the most packages out of the three, and their shipping can be as slow as three to four weeks. Not only that, but their tracking system leaves a lot to be desired.
If it's for letters or small packages with a weight of less than 1 pound, you'll be better served by USPS Priority or First-Class. Their shipping cost on packages more than two pounds is higher than either UPS or FedEx.

For 200 years the Postal Service, formerly known as U.S MAIL has always operated to break even. Not make a profit. It was a fully government agency that provided a public service.

When bonuses and promotions are involved people can turn into devils and that is exactly what upper management has turned in to. I challenge you to work 1 day and see

For all of you people talking smack about the USPS workers, know this. When 1 letter carrier calls out sick it affects the whole delivery day. You don't know this because we as carriers are very very good at our jobs and we make it look easy. The problem is the Management personnel who do absolutely nothing. If one of them don't come to work it does not affect anything at all. The USPS can run itself. Trim the fat from the top and you won't believe how much money we will be able to save.

The postal service has a gaurentee by noon delivery or your money is refunded. If you dont send an express out before the cutoff time it will be a two delivery (4pm, but it usally makes it there the next day anyways) USPS also uses signature image caputre and signature waiver, if the sender chooses.

No compettion the free market kicks the state sass again hence businesses using fedex

The USPS postal system is the most worthless branch of the Government-unreliable-undependable, and the workers will steal your valuable packages and auction the contents off at the Atlanta Ga. recovery center held every week. The sad thing is, you can't do a darn thing about it-I've lost over $650.00 and will never be able to recover a cent! GO UPS!

UPS is horrid. Its overpriced, slow and relatively unsafe. Worst shippers ever.

Then explain, in an appreciable fashion, how UPS has become the largest, most successful package delivery business in the world... ' Worst shippers ever '... not likely. Something must be working very well in that system.

Yes, you are right. In comparison to FedEx though, they don't stand near. I think (could be wrong) the reason they are huge is because companies use them more than people. I have sent packages to the same place using the same services, and the FedEx was always faster and cheaper.
lawrencetimmons94 2 years ago
You must be a complete total retard, or just ignorant in general. Im willing to bet you are just a retard. I do not know ONE single person who has ever had a problem with UPS. FedEx on the other hand, pretty much my entire family has had problems with, and at least 30-40 people I know have bitched about FedEx before. And SLOW?? Are you joking? I sent a package to IRAQ and it got there in less than a week, and it cost me $30!!!! Cant get any better than that. Go complain to your mommy.

I have never sent a package anywhere other than Europe and Canada that wasn't domestic (Yes i know those were domestic). FedEx was always faster and arrived in its supposed time, yet UPS will ALWAYS be in the latter of the times it gives you (5-10 days will always be 10 days) while FedEx is always middle to beginning. Im just stating my opinion to the matter, so don't attempt to "diss" me with your horrid unoriginal "burn" of crying to my mother.
lawrencetimmons94 2 years ago
Yeah, "horrid" must be your favorite word. Nice one. Maybe someday you will learn bigger words like "atrocious". You also claim UPS is "relatively unsafe". What the hell? You must be mistaken and sending through the USPS, not UPS. Let me guess, UPS will ALWAYS destroy your packages too, amiright? Its a freakin conspiracy, I tell you!!!
Gh3ttoBlast3r 2 years ago
Why would I want to use atrocious when horrid is perfectly fine? Is there a reason to use a bigger word when it isn't necessary? I have had a package shipped to China instead of canada at times, which is relatively unsafe. Although it did get re-routed to canada, it took longer.

You're a liar and the truth AIN'T in you. A package to Iraq for less than 30 dollars. You goin to hell for that.

the Post Office's "Express Mail" service isn't necessarily overnight/next day to all locations. USPS offers a 1-2 day commitment, they don't have an early morning delivery service, and the drop-off time is usually much earlier than FedEx and UPS. The post office may be cost effective for Ebayers and other noncritical shipments, but for businesses that have time-sensitive shipments; go FedEx or pick UPS.

The handlers that work at the Atlanta mail recovery Center PO box 44161 Atlanta Ga. 30378 for the USPS will cut the labels off your package-if it's valuable enough-retrieve the contents, and sell your valuables at the auction for lost articles-BELIEVE IT-happened 2 times to me.

Pricewise, USPS can't be beat for small packages because every address in the US gets daily mail delivery, whether you're a huge business or a loner in a shack. Note that their "large" flatrate box is only 12x12x6.
For large packages, stay away from USPS. You don't save any money and the retards at some post offices tend to misplace them. I shipped a guitar to a buyer in TX and it took 4 months to arrive... apparently it had been sitting in the stockroom since day 3.

Obviously Stacy isn't a rocket scientist here. The reason (which he failed to mention) that people use Fedex and UPS is that they get a tracking number, proof of delivery and more than just "hope" that the package arrives on time. They also get to pick when it gets there instead of "when it's convenient for the Post Office". I guess if you don't care about whether or not your package actually arrives at the right place at the right time, you can ship USPS everytime.

You can track your package with USPS. It also helps to plan ahead of time before shipping, you big dummy.

UPS isn't, either. USPS just handles the most, which lets them offer better prices. But if you have a UPS or FedEx account, you can get some pretty good prices.

I use USPS when ever I can but they are difficult to use as a online shipper. I like UPS. They're Fast and my packages always seem to be well taken care of. FEDex seems to deliver late in the day but I guess that's just where I am on the route each time. I've had some packages that went through a shipping War thou. Contents arn't damaged but the box was obviously droped quite a bit and tumbled around.
Good video. I didn;t know that USPS had a flat fee for envelopes.
