Â* A lot of people are down on the USPS , and yes they do have their
issues . That said , their service out here in the woods is superb . I
ordered a main board for our refrigerator (got watered by the ice maker
supply ) on the 14th , got it on the 17th from Minnesnowta . They quite
often beat the estimated delivery date , and we do a lot of "mail order"
stuff living way out here in the woods .
