    Is anyone having shipping problems? More specifically getting in shipments?

    Ordered an antique gun recently. Shipped from
    Miami and there is no tracking available? All the other guns the seller shipped that day arrived. Mine is the only one missing. I know covid and now possibly Hurricane issues could be possibly messing things up.

    Have had no problems getting other shipments in though.

    Has anyone else had any problems recently ?

    Yep I have. UPS for 3 days said my package was out for delivery. Each day I was able to stay home and wait in vain. Delivered on fourth day. Benchmade knife gift from my Bro, after two days on no delivery I thought they might leave me dry and send back to Oregon.

    My guess they are playing catchup and you will get it soon.

    Hope so. Maybe that’s it. Just wish it would show any tracking info. As of now it only shows the seller paid for shipping but not that he ever dropped it off at the post office.

    I get a specialty med that has to be overnighted since it's shipped cold. The pharmacy (in Florida) had to ship it to baton rouge as the New Orleans hub wasn't taking any new packages (apparently damage to their building) This is for fedex express, ground has been delivering (albeit slowly) for the past week.

    My wife ships 700-1000 packages fedex express (air/overnight) daily, and they couldn't come to pick up, so they had to hire a trucker to bring the items to mississippi to ship from that hub.

    I would feel better if there was any type of scan of this item. The seller claims he dropped it off along with four other items. The other four items have all arrived at their destination and mine is showing on the tracking number that they have been informed of prepayment but have not yet received the item.

    When I have shipped anything they always scan it right away.

    If it was at least scanned and just out there wandering around somewhere or no updates I would feel a little better but the seller has went back to the post office and they have no clue. He has not clue and I have no clue.

    He's telling me to be patient and I have been but he supposedly shipped it over a week ago and there is absolutely no tracking information whatsoever other than him paying for it, prob. at his home or work computer.

    Fed Ex is screwed up.

    I've got 43 inbound firearms that have been sent to hubs as far away as Indy, having originated in Tx.

    UPS seems to be doing fine.

    USPS, believe it or not, is on time.
