Things are moving slow. Tracking isn't being updated promptly etc etc. Blame it on Covid. Blame it on Christmas rush. Blame it on Trump. Blame it on someone! And I think the same kind of applies to all shipping companies right now.

Not all of them. Ordered a case (200) of Boss Bismuth shells on a Friday morning, by phone. Sunday afternoon they were sitting on my front porch. 1 1/2 days from Michigan to Georgia. FEDEX.

Crazy fast.

I ordered an item from Rhode Island, and it shipped Monday and arrived today. UPS ground. I've also had good luck with things directly shipped by Amazon.

At the kinda beginning of the crud I ordered three round ball molds from a mold cutter in the UK . Paid him thru PayPal from the day the order and payment arrived the molds cut , taken to the shipping center in London and arrived in Chicago took six or seven days . Then said molds sat in the Chicago area for TWO WEEKS , I’m sure part of that was the USPS claiming they needed to be in quarantine for a bit . Anyway by the time I got them it’d been 32 days . Yes 32 days from payment to delivery of the 42 days 4 or 5 were used up by the manufacturer cutting them packing and shipping after that it was oughtta his hands .
