PSA if ordering anything out of Houston do not use USPS

I have had 3 packages from Primary Arms lost in the last 3 weeks. After doing some research Houston USPS is a total shitshow. They have the worst delay and lost record in the US.

If I'm ordering anything of value I have it shipped to my office.

Try having anything going through the UPS terminal in Donaldsonville.
Seems 50% of packages I get that run through there have been opened.

Theft. And the postal service will do nothing to the organized criminals there because of race, lgbtq, religion etc…….

Well it never gets past the Houston Distribution center. So unless your office is in that building in wouldn’t mattter.

Have you noticed who works in the post office?

I will pay $100 over to not use usps. Even free shipping.

One item showed up today in the mailbox tracking shows it’s still in Houston.

Had a personal check stolen from the postal system.

If they were any more intelligent they would've been hired by the DMV

packages from Primary Arms
One good thing about living/working in the Houston area. No shipping and can pick it up at Primary Arms distribution in a couple hours after buying online.
I really don't have that many issues with USPS that I can recall. Their tracking is always slow though. Quite often I get the package the day before it's expected. I don't trust their system very much.

Ordered an upper receiver from PA last night. Will see what happens to it.

Not sure how Houston USPS could be worse than NOLA USPS.

do not use USPS
Edited for clarity. The difference in tracking alone is embarrassing.
UPS: "Our driver, Fred, stopped to get gas and pick up a Monster. Your package will be there 3 minutes later than our initial estimate."
USPS: "We're pretty sure we have a package you're supposed to get. You will get it at some point in the future. Probably."
