when the delivery is by the USPS. That's just the truth. They have lately taken to not bothering to deliver any packages. I talked to Amazon to see if I could restrict delivery from the USPS and switch to a different service. At first they said no, then they said yes. So, I sort of don't believe anything I am told by anybody. All I know is that frequently, the USPS says they delivered something that they didn't. I have lost several hundred dollars worth of items I need to make my life run right, including a ton of food. It's hard to be sympathetic to them when they lie about delivery.

If the Amazon "track your package" shows it was supposed to come by the USPS, you can believe that you'll never see it. I told Amazon that I was going to order less from them because of this. I can't help it. I choose feeding my fur family over the feelings of the USPS. I believe that Amazon (the workers) pick it and pack it with utmost speed, but then when they send it to USPS, it disappears. I have always been satisfied with Amazon service, but I just can't go through wondering if the food will actually be delivered. I have flirted with the idea of overnighting everything, where there would be that added level of "have to deliver it now," but it is so expensive. What to do?

tank.

I truly marvel that Trump's most embarrassing performances never stick to him. They certainly horrify most of us before the rest of the world.

Occasionally it takes longer, but usually Amazon says so right as I order an item.

6. If it had said 'What a product looks like in the commercial'

and 'vs what it looks like when you open the box'

with no reference to Amazon ... it would've been more clear.
