- USPS or UPS? We tend to use UPS for longer deliveries that are coast to coast or anything that gives a better value than the USPS. Items under 5 lbs tend to get shipped via USPS.
- Do we get tracking numbers? Most items will get a tracking number for your convenience. This allows for items to be followed as well as aids in the claim department.
- Do you have two day shipping like Amazon?
- Why does the USPS show my item delivered when it clearly is not? This is something that comes up on a regular basis. Apparently the USPS likes to show an item delivered if it went out that day or is scheduled for delivery. Most of the time, this means it will show up the next day. Why this happens, we have no idea. It is most likely some internal glitch but it does happen enough for us to get questions about it. Check your deliveries the next day and you will most likely find it. We find it very annoying.
