Hello,
We hope all is well with you.
Further to our e-mail dated 23 Feb. 2011, where we explained the delays being caused by USPS, along with links to news articles about same from the Wall Street Journal, we are again updating you on the situation.
We have been receiving complaints about delays in receiving packages sent with USPS, though the tracking information shows as being delivered.
USPS has been severely delayed due to a couple reasons. Firstly, they are on a cost cutting drive and will be cutting jobs.
Secondly, USPS intends to close some substations and have begun the exercise.
Here are two of the Wall Street Journal headlines in the recent past:-
1. Postal Service Targets 220,000 Job Cuts
August 12, 2011 06:25 p.m.
The U.S. Postal Service would reduce its work force by 220,000 jobs by 2015 under a plan presented to Congress to remedy dire financial conditions at the agency.
2. Postal Service Losses Mount
August 5, 2011 10:55 a.m.
The Postal Service lost $3.1 billion from April through June, bringing its losses for the year to $5.7 billion.
Back in 2009, the US Postal Service looked at closing approximately 700 post offices. The 2011 post office closure list features approximately 3,600 post offices.
In seeking your best interest, we have attached this link so that you may view an article in USA Today.

In light of this, we are suggesting if your packages are urgent; you may want to use a different service to have your packages delivered directly to your Miami address.
Note that UPS and FedEX deliver directly to your Miami address and packages don’t go to a substation first before being delivered to your Miami address.
Sincerely,
Your Caribbean Express Team

lol....good info....
Oh wow, I always avoided them though, waited a month for an accessory and decided to avoid them at all costs. I'd rather pay more to ship with UPS than pay less with USPS. Time isn't refundable.Hello,

In light of this, we are strongly advising that you use a faster, more reliable service to have your packages delivered to your Miami address.
Note that UPS and Fed EX deliver directly to your Miami address and packages don’t go to a substation first before being delivered to your Miami address.
