Maybe we should stop buying so much crap
I think Amazon wants to be a cloud services company.
I often pay extra to avoid having the USPS touch my shipments. They are the absolute shittiest service provider I (have to) use.
It takes Amazon two days to get me a package from Kenya to my local post office in western PA and then my post office another 9 days to get it the last 7/8 mile to my house.
i really fuckin hate this
I have an account with USPS that sends me emails about what will be arriving. it fine that they send pics of the envelopes, but…
Mail supposedly coming today, usually comes tomorrow
and packages will say delivered, but are not at my door nor in the mailbox
then just last week got the daily email that shows envelopes delivered 2 days ago
bonus- the packages will show a tracking code. But, no idea who its from because there is no relevant info
I hate when Amazon has USPS deliver my package, because they leave it in a parcel locker. I only go over there once a month to pick up all the junk mail the postal service delivers.
People hate on Amazon but they have the best return policies, best customer service, usually the best prices, save people gas and car emissions, etc.
Recently had a grocery delivery order from Walmart, they substituted a item they didnt have, we didnt want it as it was a completely different flavor, spent 2 hours between 2 different days at two different locations trying to return it because of paper trails not showing it because it was a substitute from the original receipt and they couldnt even just gift card the refund cause its „a food item“ or something. Eventually got it escalated to manager and such but still ill take Amazon over that shit any day.
Why is a federal agency allowed to give discounted rates to corporations? We subsidize USPS. If anything, individuals should get discounts.
This just shows how dependent the whole system is on Amazon volume now USPS needs the scale, and Amazon needs the last-mile network. The bigger issue is it quietly reinforces their dominance, because smaller players don’t get the same economics or leverage
Definitely a back out once delivering packages gets less expensive, right?
Oh, a private company already sticking its tentacles in…. Surely this won’t be an issue.
lol so ups cut Amazon loose because they were losing money, the usps is already losing money so they’ve decided to lose more at tax payer expense
I haven’t ordered from Amazon in over a year and a half. Got rid of my account. The customer service was terrible. They messed up every order I placed the last six months I was a member, and did nothing to make good. After this admin destroys the USPS to make the case for privatization, there will be fleets of Amazon delivery trucks and vans taking over the US mail system. Grim prospect.
This is a good thing. USPS needs the business. USPS is a lifeline in smaller and rural towns.
