Slow Shipping

[h2ofowler]

Okay, this is just a general observation I've made recently. Is anyone else experiencing slow shipping with USPS and their Paizo products? It seems that my shipments are much slower than they once were. Normally, I would get the shipped message and the items would arrive in 5-8 days. It seems like the normal now is 8-10+ days. Right now, I am waiting for items that shipped on November 30 to still arrive.

Maybe I'm just more impatient, but it really seems the USPS has been slow the past three months.

Anyone else having a similar slowdown?

It could be just the holiday rush of packages the postal system gets inundated with this time of year or it could also be a new postal carrier in your area.

I experience similar things on my current order (to germany) it may be be a seasonal thing or german customs is slow this time.

Thanks for the post Sara. It has been the past couple of months that orders have been slow in the mail. It is definitely not a Paizo issue. It is something with the USPS.

Yes, over the past few months USPS has started taking longer than ever to get my Pazio packages here. So much so that I have considered changing my shipping to UPS but the price difference has so far kept me from making that change.

Ironically, USPS is generally faster than UPS Ground getting Paizo boxes to me, due to working on Saturdays. I switched to UPS after USPS lost my AP two months in a row. Tracking is worth the extra money to me. (Plus, I believe UPS is required to reimburse Paizo if they lose a shipment; with the USPS, Paizo had to pay for the replacements.)
