On the other hand, since the whole "flat rate" shipping has come out, customers think it's reliable and cheap. Cheap yes... reliable no. I've lost more packages in the last year with USPS than I have in the last 7-8 years with FedEx.

Also, stops depend on where you live. If you live in FL and ship to TX, it's going to TN before going West.

Just my .02
I use FedEx whenever possible. I've never had a single problem with them. Arrives on time and the package is in good condition. UPS on the other hand, I used to work for them, I know how packages are treated and nearly everyone of them come to my door looks as if it was kicked all the way from Alaska to Florida.

USPS is garbage. Its difficult to accurately track packages with them and **** always ends up lost.
