I really wish that writing 'fragile' would indeed make a difference. Unfortunately, because of the world we live in, you're probably right.

Still, I would rather have it written on my packages 'just in case'.

I've had a package from the UK taking a tour of the Northeast United States for the last two weeks.

Well you're not paying for any better service than those who do not write 'fragile', and broken items aren't likely coming out of anyone's paycheck.  So there's some percentage of people who probably at least try to treat fragile ones better, and some probably smaller percentage who angrily treat fragile ones worse.  I usually don't write anything and just pack better and hope for the best.  I'd rather not risk being a target.

I have a package doing a grand tour around Australia at present, brought it on the 4th of October , was sent on the 5th, I lodged a query as they couldn't find it, yesterday they found it and is moving again

Hope to get it by Xmas the way it's going

Grand tour should make it some kind of pedigree.  I'll deal with this-

Here's my latest fragile shipment...they took extra precautions with it and only ran it over with the truck once.  Plus a bonus surprise...a blue latex glove taped to the back!  How many brave mailmen gave their lives to get this package to my stoop?

Didn't it worry you when it was out for delivery in Dublin, OH?
