Brattons, a Model a vendor, issued a statement that they wee suspending USPS shipments because they have been so unreliable as of late. A friend with a mail order business just had to eat 200 in shipping fees because she went to UPS due to customer complaints.
BRATTONS: Due to unsurpassed Holiday shipping volumes now combining with COVID19 volumes, Bratton’s has decided to suspend all USPS domestics shipping options. Bratton’s has always been committed to quality in both our parts and our shipping providers. At this time due to the overwhelming volumes the USPS is unable to meet our expectations on acceptable delivery times. We are now noticing that Priority Mail packages are taking anywhere from 7-21 days to get delivered. This decision was not made lightly as we realize that some smaller orders are better shipped this way, but as a shipper we must make sure the packages get delivered in a timely manner.
Also, during this time FedEx has removed all day definite guarantees from all Next Day Air, 2 Day Air, Express (3day air), and ground services. We have been working closely with FedEx and monitoring the delivery times for our shipments and it seems that some are getting delayed by 1-2 days. Just remember the closer to Christmas and New Year’s we get, the longer it may take to receive your package.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
