USPS Priority Mail


What do you think about using USPS Priority Mail to ship two 50 pound boxes (double boxed, 35 pound speakers) across the country?

In my experience, USPS Priority Mail has been more reliable and predictable than any of the other "affordable" shipping service, without question.
I have to agree,,I have been shipping electronics for years and never had an issue with USPS..I can't say that for FED EX or UPS.......What you need to do for insurance with USPS is insure it for double the value...Its cheap anyway..I was told that by my freind who works for USPS...The reasoning is if it get destroyed USPS Pro Rates so make sure you have double insurance...........
One thing for sure: USPS will respect your package far more than Fedex or UPS. Over and over I have seen careless and obvious intentional damage by workers of these companies. And then you have to deal with the games to get insurance claims. USPS is the only way to go or look for a another option with large items.
USPS all the way(I'm up in canada)fedex,ups are way to GREEDY.
I have had a few dealings with them a few years ago as far as their pricing.Do yourself a big favor USPS.
Last time USPS took 3 inches out of a box - must have dropped the box on a sharp edge from a few feet height to protrude the box by that much. Luckily the $4500 tube amp survived without any damage. In all my 100+ transactions, I never had a problem with Fedex Ground or UPS Ground. USPS lost 5+ packages delivered to the wrong address, declared my address as non-existent.
