Unfortunately there has been zero movement on this. I actually believe at this point it is lost and it will not turn up. 

Priority? You should fill out a search request form on the website if it was of much value.

I've just been holding out hope, but yeah at this point I should. Value of about $100.

I just contacted/e-mailed my Congressman to see if anything is going to done to help the Post Office get back to "Normal".

I (all of us) am paying $15.05 Priority Mail Shipping (2-3 Business Days) for packages that are taking two weeks (10 business days) to arrive, not the fault of the USPS folks in the distribution centers, local post office or the mail carriers...

We mailed a package from NJ to PA three weeks ago. It has been sitting in Florida for over two weeks. Yes, Florida. 

I had a package sit in Florida for 2 weeks and after that there was no tracking. It was mailed Dec 6th to NY, and I got it last week...so don't give up.

Yes, I it was and I had filed a missing package complaint. The company sent a replacement because there was no movement in a month and  I got the replacement 3 weeks ago.

I'm in Va. and sent a Priority flat to a friend on Wednesday afternoon and he got it the next day in Indiana. Things may be on the mend... at least around here. GOD BLESS...

... a USPS clerk that I've become friends with over the years told me that some of the Passports he was involved with took 30 days to finally arrive by Priority mail during the Holiday season.

I am in Philly area and I am also seeing any new shipments returning to closer to normal delivery times. I am also seeing that they are taking the usual routes.

I have observed no difference in the mail delivery over the past several years.

Are you saying the mail delays of Nov '20 to Jan '21 were no different than those moths in previous years?

I am saying for the stuff I get through the mail I have not seen and difference in delivery over the last several years.  Amazon does seem to take 1 to 2 days longer than they use to back when you could get next day delivery.  Seems to now be 2-3 day delivery.

 I just I just wanted to add my two cents. I sent out four packages last week through USPS and the packages were delivered within 2 or 3 days Media Mail. One was even sent to Washington State and I'm in the southern usa.

 Which is a far cry from early December when it took almost a month for a couple of packages to get delivered.
