On May 25, 2021 I ordered a pair of 6204-2RS ball bearings from a bearing house in Medley FL. For anyone not familiar with ball bearing sizes they are about the size of an Oreo Double Stuff cookie! I started tracking them on the 26th of May when Post Office showed they had possession of the package.
About a week ago I called local Post Office to see if they could wake someone up to see where they might be. Lady said she sent a couple emails out and a couple days later the package moved from Tenn. Post Office and then to Rochester NY Post Office and finally made it to my local Post Office this morning!
I just happened to be outside when mail truck came down the road so I met the mailman at the end of drive he said hope that is the package you are waiting for with the two bearings! It was. He said he has the same problems getting the license plates he collects and buys on Ebay. 18 days just to move a small package appox. 1,500 miles! That is double the time it took me to get a similar size package from here to Winnipeg Canada and that one had to be cleared through customs!
