I would not use them for anything important. I cringe when I buy something and the seller sends me a tracking number for USPS.
I would rather pay more. I lost one order in early November and have been waiting 3 weeks for another order that still says its at the PO where it was sent from.
Othe USPS orders got sent and then just randomly show up and the tracking is not accurate.

Fedex and UPS have had no issues at all.

I bought something off eBay and it came from Canada on October 4th...just got it last week.

Over 2 months to get it. Good thing they pack well!

I'm having the same issues with USPS, ordered a bunch of stuff from Inline Tube 3 weeks ago and it made it to Iowa a few days ago but its now in Minnesota according to the tracking number.

Reading these comments I realize I’m not alone. I have an extremely rare, absolutely irreplaceable rare part that’s been stuck in “Usorda’” since mid-November. I’ve been losing hope. It’s not just a loss to me, it’s a loss to the world.

As long as My Kaiser Wa Meds make it in good time, EVERY thing else is trivial.

I've had a few things shipped to me USPS lately. They have arrived, but were late. I also had another item that was shipped FedEx and was also delayed. There's a lot going on out there with COVID and coupled with the holidays there's bound to be delays longer than normal.

Me, no gripes at all with USPS. 99% gets shipped through Chicago and makes it over here then gets put in the Military postal system.

One problem i have is the people i ship things to do not even have the courtesy to tell me they received the part i sent them

I only got mail delivered once in the last week. With that said, usps has scanned all the packages they were supposed to deliver as delivered even though I haven’t received them. It’s messed up.

Like a few others mentioned, it's been going on for months, long before the silly season started.
We've had a few packages 3-4 months ago that were simply lost and never recovered, on 3 separate occasions. I never got an explanation on any of it, no idea what happened or where it went. Had tracking numbers on all of it that eventually went dead. I eventually just got a notification they were sorry and to place another order. So I had to reorder everything.

No problems of lost packages since then but everything has been later than promised. I even paid for expedite shipping a couple of times and it still wasn't getting here any faster than normal. So I wouldn't recommend wasting money on that either.

Even had trouble with UPS back in June. Ordered a few car parts from Summit that were coming out of the Nevada warehouse. It's always here at my door in AZ the next day. 3 days go by and nothing. Check the tracking number and find out it was in Tennessee for some strange reason. When they realized it, they sent it back to the Ohio warehouse, lol. By the time it finally got back to me it was over a week and had traveled across the country twice.

I've gotten to the point this year I'm nervous about ordering anything and don't hold my breath on delivery times.
