For Christmas I bought my daughter, SIL, and a couple they are best friends with tickets to the Kenny Chesney concert in Tampa next Saturday...
The tickets were mailed to me cause that was the only choice when I used Fan Club early ticket purchase--
when they came FedEx I sent them to my daughter in Nokomis on March 2 via priority mail with a delivery confirmation--
supposed to get there in 4 days--the desk person said maybe in 3 but 4 anyway--so they would have gotten them last Saturday on the 4th day...

The tickets were clocked in at Fort Myers FL (which I thought was strange vs Tampa)
then they went to New Jersey!
They started back to FL on Tuesday--went to Jacksonville Wednesday--
and only made it to my daughter in Nokomis TODAY...
9 days in transit---for priority mail--

so much for USPS...
no wonder that business is in bad shape--

sorry to burst your bubble, but the post office is an independent business. not government run
kinda stupid nonetheless. that's why ups and fedex cleans their clock.

Well, thank goodness they got them. What a hassle it would have been to deal with that. I am sure that you could have gotten them through the will call / pick up window, but still all that would have been a mess.
