Guys, please dont ship regular parcel post through the USPS. It can and will occasionally take up to one month to receive the shipment. Secondly, they will not track nor look for your item until that one month time period has expired. I recommend spending that little extra for Priority Mail. They claim most shipments will take 2-3 days this way and the longest Ive waited was about a week. No one wants to wait a month to receive their parts regardless if they "need" them or not.

I agree,I have been waiting to long for parts to ship that have been bought off here lately,I think everyone selling parts on here should have to get a registered account with FEDEX or UPS to help the buyer keep better track of the shipment.

Unless the buyer is willing to pay for the postage upgrade, I ship the cheapest way possible. If you want it faster, you can pay for your impatience out of your pocket, not mine. If the buyer is getting a good deal on the part, asking for upgraded shipping at no additional cost is just greedy.

I think everyone would agree that regular UPS or something isnt a big deal. Those kinds of shipments are within a week. But if you use USPS and ship parcel it may very well be two weeks at best. Big difference IMO.

I always ship Priority Mail.Postman told me depending on what it is and how the package is shaped it is sometimes cheaper to go priority.He compared the prices for me one day on a package and Priority was $3 cheaper with delivery Confirmation.

USPS also offers a Priority Mail "flat rate box". I have shipped some heavy stuff cross country for $8.95.

To you, an extra week is a "big difference". To me, it's 7 days.

Just because you want your stuff faster is not a reason to expect someone else to spend extra money. If it's the same price or cheaper to send it faster, that's a no brainer but if it costs extra and the buyer isn't willing to pay extra, it gets there when it gets there. To expect something for nothing is a sure way to end up disappointed, you'd be happier if you expected a month and were pleasantly surprised when it came in 2 weeks.
