I sell quite a bit on eBay. Not too long ago, I shipped a fishing gaff by USPS Priority mail from KY to HI. It took 28 days to get there (quoted 3). I was getting ready to file a claim, since you have to wait a month with them. Their tracking is ridiculous, since they only show that you shipped it(which you know) and that it has or has not arrived(which the customer knows). The only thing it does is eliminate the need for mailing a delivery confirmation back.
