Seven different entries on the progress of this package sent out last Friday.

My luck with DC info seems to vary by which local post office I use to start. If it's downtown Richmond near my office, the DC info doesn't show up until after the package is delivered, if at all. If I use the one close to my home, I get much more detailed info. Not sure if the two correlate 100% of the time, but it seems that way.

Thus the name "delivery confirmation", Gerard...any other info prior to delivery is a unpaid bonus.

I actually get better service, for less money, than UPS or Fed Ex ground. No complaints from me.

While I wouldn't say better I have found usps priority to usually be very prompt at a great price point. I also have no complaints.
