I had a letter sent from Florida to Pennsylvania signature required. I wasn’t home and carrier left a sticky note saying so. Went to main post office with routing number and it couldn’t be found. A week later , same guy at counter went to a rack just out of sight and handed it to me. Was it there the whole time???

I had one short phone conversation with Hunter Kirkland. In my opinion, a complete jerk .
Smokey , be sure to keep us updated on what happens. We will all be very interested in how it turns out.
Do tell…

I'm a retired mailman, things have changed.We used to take an exam which was long and you had to pass it. Today they hold up 3 fingers and if you say 2, you are hired! You will get it but it will take time. I've had two parcel recently shipped down south and they came back to our office in Maine where they were sent out again.

How is this Dixie's fault? Think the package is still sitting on their loading dock? They will get involved when they need to get involved. But really, the post office loses track of a package and it is Dixie's fault.
About a year ago a store shipped me a small part. Tracking showed it stuck in limbo from that company's shipping carrier and the transfer to USPS in Atlanta. USPS said they could do nothing, because records show they never received it. So I notified the seller company and cautioned them to watch the progress of the replacement. Sure enough, the replacement followed the same path and got stuck in limbo in the same place. Neither package ever arrived.
UPS are THE worst. Leaving my rifle just sitting on the porch when it was supposed to have a signature.
Then they treat you like garbage. The system needs a lot of training and a new spirit. A lot of good people and bad leadership
Their "new" policy of taking and posting pics of items delivered at the door is really killing claims.
Except when it says signature, do that. Hold it at a station or store for me to pick up if need be.
Used to be we always had the same UPS driver. But last couple of years it seems like a different driver every time. And a couple of them were real works of art.

I had one of those guns years ago. It was so gorgeous. But I never could get a decent pattern which was not the guns fault. I knew very little about load development. I miss that gun.
In this case UPS delivery pics may work for you if a claim arises.
For 12-15 years, maybe more, we get numerous different USPS deliverers. What's worse is we are a full in route.... Who ever is done with their route does ours. So any time of day. AND the street just to the east is one letter off with the same numeration so we get other guys mail on the street over and they get ours. Had a cool older Veteran for years and I'd take over his packages of drugs from the VA and he would bring us our stuff. Few years ago he moved. The new lady steals our stuff. Caught her red handed once. She opens the door and there is my wife's Amazon box opened on her floor with craft stuff all over her coffee table! "Amazon said I could keep it and be they were resending your order". I reminded her mail theft was a crime and she let me take it. Wife MAD. Lady should have known we were tracking it and when it says delivered 10 min ago we would walk over and get it. Next time I call the cops!

Very rarely buy a gun which needs to be shipped rather than picked up in person. When I have done so I felt uneasy while waiting for it.
Here in OR they wouldn't even take a message much less show up.
