Still waiting on mine.

It seems as though some boxes, such as the one I sent on Monday, are getting routed strangely. My box was shipped on Monday afternoon, read delivery by 3/6 and it is now end of day on the 7th and it still hasn't been delivered. Hopefully box is in good shape still but it does bother me because we pay $15+ to mail it and then they are delayed. Bummer.

I've been using regional boxes, much cheaper to ship and are treated the same way has priority.

Here is the info on regional boxes. The great thing about it no trips to the post office, just schedule a pickup. Tracking is free. https://www.usps.com/business/priority-mail-regional-rate.htm The most you would pay for a Regional size "A" box is $9.88 but can be as low as $5.32 depending were it is shipping to.
