Just how bad is the mail right now?

Nine days from Ontario to Ohio. I think this seller was trying to get rid of some stamps.

Probably had the commemorative album of stamps from 1984 - I know because my parents bought the books annually for me back then...

package arrived at bud's place today in a week. with tracking. 17.74 for anything under .5 pounds for those that are curious...

Ordered a box of Allen and Ginter on Wednesday and I could have sworn that it said it would be here by the end of today, but now it says I will get it on Monday. Canada Post playing jedi mind tricks on me!

That could change also - I had a package that went from end of day Monday at 8:30 ish to received at my doorstep 20 minutes ago.

I got another update today saying it was processed in my city at around 12 pm. Nothing makes sense anymore!

Anyone know what is going on with mail within Canada from Quebec? I bought 2 items from the same seller that were sent a week apart. I received the 2nd item already but nothing from the first item? First item was sent on Aug 23 and the second item was sent on Aug 30.

well got my ginter box yesterday, but tracking didn't update anything yesterday now it says it was processed again. so i get a free box? lol.

I have two incoming packages coming from the US and I am sending one out to OK. The two incoming packages are updating daily, but the package I sent out on Sunday has said it's been accepted by my PO for the past two days. ETA is Sept. 30th though so probably just another delay in processing or whatever. Is there a way to figure out the ETA of packages with USPS????

Got another box of Ginter from Red Nails 2 here in Toronto and the tracking info came up a little different. They usually send using Expedited Parcels, but that is now Regular Parcels. I think Canada Post just changed the name or something b/c when I googled the speed is the same. But the weird thing is that the ETA of my package is October 14th. Never have I I gotten a package that slow and my last few packages have arrived a day earlier than what the ETA says. This package should arrive several days earlier.

I’m waiting for a package from Quebec that shipped September 16th. I’ve received stuff from all across North America in the meantime including multiple packages from the states.

I read somewhere that there was a covid outbreak at a postal facility in Quebec.

Yeah, Quebec is having a bit of a tough time right now.

However, even before COVID-19, Quebec was always a wildcard for me. You just never knew if it was going to be delayed for one reason or another.

I hope you receive your cards soon!

Thought my box would arrive on the weekend. It didn't lol. Looks like I have to wait until Tues-Wednesday then.

One just got to me from the US and it took 5 days. It was a trade, so his card made it to the Chicago hub in three days and has been there for a while.

Package sent from Plainfield , IL on October 6th. Package arrived today.With a long weekend in there. Pretty quick in my opinion.

Sorry to bump this but I'm wondering if anyone else has had any luck receiving their physical cards from UD E-Pack?

I made a request of about 140 cards in early June and was given an estimated arrival date of October 4th. I received an email update on September 23rd from COMC that the cards were being picked with the goal of being shipped on September 28th and set to arrive in October 4th, just like the original estimate.

However, since then I have not received anything further. I know they haven't shipped because typically I would receive a tracking number and the transfer status on the E-Pack site would change. I have contacted COMC and UD customer service once a piece for an update (one on Oct 4 and the other about two weeks later) and was told by both the shipping department of COMC would contact me but they have yet to do so.

Anyone have any success stories or are still waiting? I understand about the pandemic and have had plenty of mail slow to a crawl, but I've never received the initial COMC alert without the cards actually shipping out a day or two later.

Seems like mail within the US is moving at a snail’s pace. With your elections coming up, it’s not going to get any better any time soon.

Plus with the holidays quickly approaching/early online shopping, I’d bet we starting seeing mail become slow again, sadly...

Well my Quebec package was delivered by Canada Post to my neighbors mailbox, where is sat for most likely weeks as they never check it. Luckily they passed it along as it was a BGS 9.5 Jagr OPC Premier card.
