Which courier do you prefer?

My favorite domestic courier is "USPS Priority".

It is not very expensive but deliver within 2 days on Conus.

But I am being puzzled by Fedex.

One of my audio parts was supposed to arrive at my home on 14th Thursday after shipping from Chicago on 8th, Friday.

But it was delayed by snow storm.

I could understand that.

But after arriving Burlington WA (8 miles from my home) on 15th Friday, it is missing in action.

When I checked tracking, it showed "delivery pending" for 5 days.

Do you also have bad experience with Fedex?

FedEx overnight works like a clock. Cost is a consideration.

Fed Ex is NOTORIOUS for simply leaving packages sitting by the front door & I have had a couple packages go missing with them so I will NEVER use them again...USPS Priority Mail has NEVER failed me for the smaller stuff & Big Brown gets the heavy lifting...

As a Canadian who orders things frequently from the US, I hate UPS with a passion. They charge an arbitrary handling fee amounting to about $100 each time, no matter the value or size of the parcel. Postal service is much more reasonable.

IMHO. I think USPS gets a bad rap. In general terms, they have been very reliable.
