I've read the USPS website and their delivery timeframe they list for first class doesn't seem to have changed over the past few years. But I've noticed a 1-2 day delay for a while now. It's frustrating because I used to have an incredible turn-around time for mailing invoices and receiving checks. Now it's 3-4 days longer than it was last year. Something has changed, I'm just not sure what or why. Especially since they seem to be fighting to stay alive amidst the competition.
It's also irritating that some days the postman comes by at 10 a.m., some days noon, 2 p.m....as late as 5:30 p.m.
And I'm the last one to complain about the price. Fiftysome cents to mail a letter is dirt cheap. Inexpensive enough that I send my customers pre-stamped return envelopes for convenience. They could double the price and I would still think it's fair. Or at least it would be if they'd deliver like they used to.
