UPS Shipping?

Post by Brucepts »

When I request to have something shipped by UPS and pay for UPS shipping why do they hand it off to the USPS for final delivery?

I've now had this happen twice, it adds one-two extra days to the shipping.

On the UPS tracking page it says it's by request of the sender? I guess my recourse is to let the "sender" know that I am not happy that I spend $$$ to have it shipped via UPS only to have it be delivered via USPS. It would have been cheaper to send it flat-rate USPS and I'd have it in 2-3 days not 5-7 days!
